    HEHE missed this one

    Looks like I missed this intro section. Strange.

    Hello everyone. I am Myles and I live in the Weird Weathered Winnipeg, right around the center of Canada.

    I know little of gardening or anything of this nature, but decided to start getting into it this year in an effort to make my yard more "Me" friendly.

    Myles

    Name origin


    Sorry It's taken a while to get back. Thanks for the welcomes. The name smiling carcass came about because I was looking for a new email address. My given name and my other nick-name were taken, and I do not like tagging other names with a number. So, after trying several names that were already taken, I 'googled' to some name generation sites. Many of these aren't very good, and after several tries, I came upon a site that was intended to give options for naming a rock band. After a few tries, Smiling Carcass came up, and I liked it straight away, and tagged it to the isp as an emaill address, and decided it would make a good and probably little used user name and there you are!

    Here is my official welcome, Hi Myles :D I've always wanted to travel to Canada. I hope to do it someday as I have met many Canadians in my life and they always seem like very friendly, down-to-earth people. Can you recommend any "must-sees" there?

    And Joyce, that's why I liked your nickname in the first place, because it sounded like a rock band (very Spinal Tap-like, have you seen that movie?)

    Welcome all.

    Introduction

    Hello everyone -
    This is my introductory post.
    I currently live in north central BC. I've gardened in zones 6, 4 and now 3.
    Besided gardening, my interests are my dogs and sustainable living.
    Looking forward learning and contributing.
    All the best.

    :smt039 Zeke!!!! Welcome to GardenStew. :D I just know you're going to have fun here. :)

    Could you tell us more about sustainable living? I'm sure there are lots of folks here would love to hear about it.

    Looking forward to any photographs you have of your dogs, your garden, your house, your car, your neighbours - well anything really - as I'm a nosey so and so. :D :D
