    Treasures around the farm (picts)

    You guys are great. I walk with a "hutch in my giddyup" these days but for the most part I'm doing OK.

    Treasures around the farm (picts)

    Dad had, at one time, 60 cows but that was a long time ago. I think he had 10 to 20 for quite a while before he got sick.

    Mail order pills????

    Four months ago DW and I decided that we would order some "dietary supplement pills" on-line from a vitamin company. She has tried just about everything to get rid of a skin condition. She had a conversation with the dermatologist during her last Dr. appointment and he said it may not hurt to...

    Treasures around the farm (picts)

    Been a very busy summer for us here on the homestead. A while back I got run over by a 650 pound round bail of hay and totally messed up my hip, leg and spine. After two operations and fiftyseven gazllion hours of rehab I'm getting around a bit better these days. I got involved in a local...

    Treasures around the farm (picts)

    Cane, I chuckled out loud when I read about your bull. We have one like that. We call him Murphy and he acts mean and tries to show his meanness until you raise your arms and look him in the eye. He practically falls down trying to turn to run away every time. Big Goober

    Facebook Messenger Hacked????

    I don't get on facebook but my wife does every day. This is how her family communicates with silly little posts and she evidently enjoys it. Yesterday I received a call from our DIL saying that she received a Facebook message that did not seem right and it was from DW's account. Then someone...

    Chipmunks !!!!!

    Chipmunks !!!! We have an abundance of the little boogers and they are very destructive. Holes in the soil everywhere, scratching in the attic, AND ruining my tender starts in the greenhouse. Between the moles and the chipmunks our yard looks like bombs have gone off everywhere. Does anyone...

    Chix pix

    @Kassaundra - Do you have a hen that sat on the eggs to hatch these? I can't for the life of me get a broody hen these days.

    @Larisa Questions About banana water

    Just a bit off topic . . . I tried the banana peel sleep aide tea a few months ago. It tastes horrible and didn't make me sleep. YMMV

    I'd like to suggest a movie~

    @so lucky, I just finished reading the book A Dog's Purpose. I think it is a great story and very well written. I hope the movie is as good.

    I'd like to suggest a movie~

    I'm so glad to see the posts in this thread. We don't go to ANY movies since the smut-mongers have taken over. The trash on the silver screen is appalling.

    Pruning peach trees

    But @thistlebloom isn't it true that many plants (trees included) actually sprout new branches after pruning?

    Reasons to Smile...

    I love to see the sun hang around a bit longer each day. But the thing that makes me smile even more is all the buds popping open and the forest with a faint green glow of springtime.

    Window + BB = ?

    The HD price is outrageous and the Anderson Renewal is outrageous x3. (by the way, Anderson Renewal windows are not very high quality) Windows are usually not difficult to replace if you can match the size. If there is a size difference there is a bit more work involved but certainly not...

    Pruning peach trees

    @journey11 - Thanks for the great link. I downloaded the PDF version and read every word in the document. I see what you meant by using the word "vase".

    Pruning peach trees

    @journey11 - Can you explain what you mean by "vase shape". I've seen many different shaped vases. @catjac1975 - I usually use the "not more than 1/3" rule too.
