We have had nothing but gas stoves for over half a century and would never switch to electric. My son has an electric stove and if my wife has to cook a meal at his house all she does is complain about the stove. Also, we have a ventless fireplace and it does not have any smell either. The...

The golden light of autumn makes photography a joy and each day precious.

Water, water, everywhere, soon it will be frozen solid. :rolleyes:

Long Pond, Grafton Lakes Park. Today summer made a return appearance but the beach was deserted. Oh, the joy of being retired. ;)

Paint Mine Creek, Thatcher Park, Voorheesville, NY.

Thanks @sumi It was a pretty good hike but well worth the effort.

Fall is coming quickly to upstate New York. Martin Dunham Reservoir, Grafton, New York.

We have had Roku devices for several years. They are great.

The Queen of American Lakes – Lake George. When Thomas Jefferson gazed upon the waters of Lake George in 1791, he was inspired to write, “Lake George is without comparison, the most beautiful water I ever saw.” I totally agree.

No, the leaves are not rubbery and it is definitely oregano. There are only a few plants in the container but I have lots of seeds left from what I received on Ebay. I have enough seeds for hundreds of plants but we only use a little fresh oregano. Theresa dries and crushes some to store from...

The plastic is really heavy or I would not have used it. See the addition to the post above.

Mary, they are plastic berry baskets that Theresa had in the basement. They originally were inserts for containers meant to store berries in the refrigerator. Theresa uses the containers but has never used the inserts. She asked me if I could use them before they went into the recycle...

Martha Stewart would be aghast if she saw my containers, but a simple Mason Jar makes an attractive container for hydroponic basil. ;)

The afternoon was spent repotting orchids in preparation for winter. Whenever possible I use containers salvaged from the recycle bin. Let's face it, orchids, when not in bloom, are not very attractive plants, so why spend a lot of money on attractive growing containers? Also, most of my...
