    Radio Stations

    I like 95.9 the Ranch out of Fort Worth http://www.959theranch.com/ It's all Texas Country, though some of it is still too pop for my tastes, but as far as radio goes, that's what's on in the car. I like traditional country, metal, and "classic" rock.

    Great Ideas guys, thanks! I compost all kitchen scraps that aren't meat or dairy - and what the chickens don't eat. I also shred junk mail to even out the green brown ratio. I live in central/north central texas and have clay (I normally call it soil unless I'm dissapointed in it, like right...

    Rain barrell

    This article helped me get my soil in shape!

    great info. I've been a little "stuck" as to where I might start improving my soil. The first step I need to take is to send it off to be analized to see where I stand and then work to improve it. Now I have a great starting point. Thanks!!! :tools

    horse manure

    So, I really have a long way to go to get my soil up to snuff. I was thinking about calling the local large animal vet clinic to ask them for their horse manure. I just wanted to ask y'all first if there is anything I should worry about as far as medicine or illness that might make the manure...
