I went to hang out with some SCA friends today and thought the wind was gonna knock over. Finally found a sunny spot against a tree and we sat there. One of them was teaching me the basics of embroidery. It went okay, so far.

Happy Earth day! I wish I was sitting by that fire pit too. It sounds like a good plan.

I want to see some of those flying deer. :lol: Or the rain clouds they travel in, if they arrived that way. :lau Hubby used to see some of those invisible critters too. He was telling his Mom their were giant pigs in the woods back in Georgia for years. Then somebody killed Hogzilla and...

Hello :) Thanks for the advice. I bought my crowns last spring. Since they are all I have, I'm gonna enjoy them. Nothing to compare them to may help. ;) We have heavy clay here, so I mix lots of compost into the raised beds to help it.

I'm jealous :D We had asparagus growing by the ditch at an old house and it was wonderful. :drool

We are about to get a good storm tonight. Some of it will probably work it's way up there later tonight or early tomorrow.

Tried a campfire (had a hibachi grill) pizza twice before. It burns on the bottom too easy. Letting it thaw well first and starting with a cold iron skillet worked better, but . . . :/ If you find a good way- post it please.

Hope the girls feel better quick. Someday thermography will catch on, but most docs and insurance companies don't do it yet.

Good luck! I had a huge cyst before, and remember what it was like till I heard it was Not cancer. I hope the stress is over for you soon too.

If you got that excited- you must have known what it is good for. ;) It's also supposed to be good for companion planting. I'd like to try growing a little bit. Good job on the fencing. You might want to make a gate somewhere. I guess it depends on how often you would need to go through...

I read first to get the basics. My brain absorbs info much better that way. I retain info that way too. Watching videos of the process works pretty well. I play it through once, then rewatch it using the pause button between steps. Spoken instructions don't work well for me. Things get...

Welcome :frow Sounds like you did a good job setting everything set up at your place. We lived off grid before, but the place was already built by somebody else. They designed it pretty well, except the previous resident carried in their water. We dug out a seep spring, but still had to...

If I had the tools for it I would have a good gutting board and a real rolling pin. That's what made me think of it.

Welcome :frow Glad you found your way here. Lots of good info on so many things.

nice pics :cool: I wonder if yarrow would grow well here. It's pretty and a good medicine for the lungs and . . . ahem "something else :bun

I liked getting their bulk herbs- spice & medicinal and they have their own generic/store brand line that was pretty good. Being willing to cook helps. The ready to eat stuff can drive the bill up fast.

:thumbsup If you have wood tools- keep your eyes open for any pieces that would make good cutting boards, or a pizza peel. Maple is good for that stuff and they are $$$ in the stores.

Pretty sunset! I like that cabin too. Those overhangs probably helped lots with passive cooling. He was some politician. He gave them the land- got paid to build the place, - then it was given back to him afterwards to use for his big family. Sweet deal.

Doc - We got rained out too. I had wanted to go up on the mountain so bad, but I would have slid right back down it. :( Gypsi- Congrats on the bees!

Glad you're doing well down there. Enjoy your pie :drool
