    Check out this big ole' bad boy!

    I've always loved nature and trees have always amazed me. These lovely wonders can really get busy! Check out this tree in a city park on the Columbia river. Biggest tree I've ever seen, and the photos don't do this creature justice! I'm 6 foot tall and can barely reach the bottom of that first...

    It's getting to be that time again.

    Getting close to gardening time! Last year I was selling tomatoes on the 11th of June. This year my goal is by the 1st of June. I grow my early stuff in a 12X40 high tunnel. Dang, now I'm hungry for 'maters. It's hard to beat a bacon, tomato and bacon sammich.:confused2:

Why is that? I did locate a 112 over in my...

    Anybody growing a garden ?

    Ive been enjoying some fresh organic produce from the garden since the end of last month. Plucked some green onions after a breif thunderstorm this afternoon. Some yellow, some white. They are huge and smell excellent. Just thought Id share and see if anyone else has some garden pics.

    what kind of scat is this?

    We found several piles of scat in our backyard. We have more than a dozen deer that travel through our yard in a week's time, but I always thought deer scat was in pellets? These seem to be more like dog poo, but then again not so much. Any one know?

Could that sensor? be bad? Anyone had...
