well, after adding 1,500 pounds or so of cow manure to the veggie garden, and, an equal amount a sand and about 500 pounds of lime...it was rototilling time!!!!
Got that done, rolled out the landscape fabric and cut hole for the tomato plants. Got all 15 tomato plants in and then spread the 4 bales of straw over the fabric.
Tomorrow, the eggplant, basil, hot peppers and pumpkins go in.
Will have most of the garden done before we leave on our annual trip to New England next week. Whew!!
Display MoreWas sitting on the front porch, watching everything green up and bloom out...
Pollen playing hell with my sinuses.
Had to do something.
Grabbed the polesaws, loppers, and gloves...
And cleared the encroaching brush from along the gravel drive.
And now I am sitting here waiting for the antihistamine medications to kick in so I can frickin breath through my nose again.
hot sauce works faster than the medicine. And, i heard the hot sauce kills the corona virus. LOL
In 3 states, at least give the correct info if you are going to mention things. New York, New Jersey and Connecticut : https://www.cdc.gov/media/rele…s038-travel-advisory.html
?????? The statewide shelter in place order for NC according to all the local news outlets, is to start at 5pm on March 30th and is in place for 30 days.
Reporting what is being reported
Yup, I mentioned that little fact of it being a US highway and with a little irritation told me that the federal order gave the state permission to allow any county to close a road to protect their citizens health. Sorry, I should have put that in the last post.
Also, I was informed today thst the Gov of NC signed a shelter in place order for the entire state, effective this Monday and is good for 30 days.
I wrote an email to NCDOT and they responded in writing that the Governors emergency order does allow counties to close state highways to protect the health of their citizens
I have not seen the order, I was told about it....
The gov of NC signed a shelter at home order for the whole state. I believe it starts on Monday and is good for 30 days
She won by THREE MILLION VOTES. THREE MILLION.
Who was the LOSER according to a MAJORITY of the voters?
She was the loser! We dont elect our President via popular vote and she knew that and so should you...
A lawyer once told me that sending our dirtiest manufacturing and processing to places like China sheltered the local USA company from pollution concerns, bacterial concerns and performance concerns. Less chance they can be sued....
In some ways, like having “our” pollution go there is better than having it here.
But in the end we are held captive, like Apple, to events in a foreign country that may not have occurred here.
Personally, I try to buy nothing from China.
A neighbor was told to exercise more but since he had bad knees, his doctor told him to get a bike.....
So he bought a Goldwing. He told his wife it was doctors orders....
They just want you to do it for a few weeks, not the rest of your life.....
WAIT.........................Are you the Grim F*%&N Reaper????
I’ll be dead far longer than I will be alive. Therefore, I live each day to the fullest.
Between 15 and 50 thousand Americans die each year due to the flu. Look it up. Did we shut down roads, weddings, businesses because of that? NO, we didn’t and less than 700 Americans have died of the Corona flu.
i understand some of you are too scared to venture forth, like some are to scared to skydive, rock climb or participate in contact sports. That’s OK, if you choose that safe, docile, calm and thrill-free life.
I always choose otherwise and will not spend one day, two weeks or a month missing out on life, even if some of that life may be unpleasant or painful.
After all, tomorrow is guaranteed to no one.
If the masks work, fine, but putting your faith in a mask you hope will keep you safe and then finding they are worse than using mosquito netting...
The offer is awesome, but I would never trust MY safety to any Harbor Freight product.

Some of you know started a new business, will see for how long
small business bail out I hope but everyone talks about service industrie not manufacturing.
Civil disobedience. I know it’s easy to say, but sometimes you just have to do what you must do to survive. What’s the penalty if you keep working? A fine? Jail? Seems like they are throwing people out of jails to reduce the risk of spreading the virus. If it’s a fine, is the amount worth continuing compared to the money you lose in lost business?
Life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.... I hope things work out for you. Good luck!
I hope their masks, gloves and shields are better than their tools.
Didn’t do a mod today, but ordered the parts! Just ordered the Stowaway Softop and frame from allthingsslingshot! Thanks Kevin for answering my questions so promptly!
Can’t wait to install it!
Bristol Baby - Back up Plan
if there is a back up plan, lets hear it.... I still want to go!
Mass hysteria.... So foolish. Local mom and pop places will be in bankruptcy. But the airlines will get millions and millions...
i just sent an email to the county manager expressing my extreme displeasure
What BS!!!!!
