That was funny. That belongs up there with The Taser and the Squirrel Grenade and Deer Roping Stories.Chuck, it would be a Hoot is you could find those and bump them up for the new Folks to read. That was Dr. Mobius if I'm remembering right. They were Pure Funny. Bob

Be careful Chuck. The two greatest injustices in life are 1. Not getting what you want. 2. Getting what you want. Bob

BB Be very careful of underlayment. It is not supposed to but it can have voids now and again. Check each sheet carefully. Bob

BB, Ought to be able to get some paddle making wood. If you wanted to you could make and sell paddles to offset the price of the takedown. Bob

You are right about drying out quicker. You just about have to water everyday if you have a loose mix like I did. If it rains everyday for a month it doesn't kill the plants because of standing in water. They stay drained. Sometime that is a good thing and sometime that is a bad thing. I did...

Plain pine 2x12 w/cedar fence pickets screwed to the bottom. Any lumber is high so I was probably squalling about the expense of it. Sometimes I'm so tight you would think I was a Scotsman born in Monterrey, Mex.. In retrospect it would have been cheaper to pay more for cedar 2x12's as they...

Jack, Put on a pot of black eyed peas, throw a jalapeno pepper in with a handful of okra and you just made Good Better. Truth be known, you are sour on okra just because you can't grow it up there. :mrgreen: Bob

Joey, I almost forgot. Watching the video the other day I could not believe what he did. Most of the weeds he was digging up and chunking was good to eat. Beautiful dandelion plants with nice big roots wasted. He dug up some (I think) plantain which is very good. I had some plantain at the...

Finally got enough okra to have a pot of okra and tomatoes today. Been saving okra for a week. That's getting one and two a day, then two and maybe three a day, then three and four a day. They are starting to come on in a big way(I hope). They are a good month behind where they should be...

Jack, Lots of folks down here grow bananas. Most rarely make fruit, but the leaves are wonderful to cook stuff in. Mexicans and other South and Central Americans will come beg leaves off of you to cook with and you can usually look to get a bit back to taste. Wonderful trade. I think of...

Any and I mean any kitchen scraps need to be dun into it. Egg shells, spent coffee and tea bags, vegetable matter watermelon and cantaloupe rinds, or anything should be dug in. It all helps. You can also din in any printed matter such as newspapers and cardboard boxes. Seems like I remember...

Joey, If you know a rancher that uses high quality hay see if you could pick up his left over hay. When they feed round bales they set it on the ground, cut the strings and plastic (if any) and the cows eat on it. There is usually some left on the ground that has been trampled on and not...

Joey, I watched the video ans was impressed with it. Did he live in a part of Washington that gets 15feet of rain a year? If you could get access to the materials you need to do that it would be worth trying. Having chickens and or ducks would be a big plus. I think you have found...

That makes sense. The Truth usually resides somewhere in the middle on outlandish claims. Bob

Joey, I have heard that using wood chips as a mulch in the garden is not a good idea. Decaying wood is supposed to use an enormous amount of nitrogen so your plants would suffer unless you added a lot of nitrogen. I would think for the deep mulch garden you would need raised beds or some...

Mick, I do not think there is a legal reason (as if that ever stopped him) for suspending an election. If there is I would like to see it. Bob

Puts things into perspective doesn't it. Thanks Chuck. Bob

Your last paragraph was interesting. If someone flipped the GPS Master Switch off one day and there was no more GPS, we would be so screwed. Bob

Were waiting to hear more about the trip. You're always good for a picture or two. Cain't wait to see them. Bob

Well! At least we got to see your ole Pig. Is that the original one or did you burn it out already. I thought that was the neatest thing. Bob
