    Garden!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Yes on both. My dad planted some and made a bunch of jams and such in the fall. We have some ice cream sauce in the cupboard and a couple jars of jam left. Going to have to resupply soon.

    To be fair, they put up with a lot of idiocy. Last time I was in there I had to wait a while and people watched for a bit. One guy had an issue with the title from when he bought his car from a dealer recently. She asked him for the paperwork he did have and he told her it's in the car, in...

    Freak accident. (Understatement)

    I had an old style can with a bad spout in the shed. I was at menards and saw they had special replacement spouts for old cans. When I went to put it on the can There was a little air vent grommet inside and the instructions basically read “ Definitely do not drill a 3/8” hole in a new style gas...

    Freak accident. (Understatement)

    Wow, lucky family. That's scary as hell. Truth. Back years ago I went to a seminar about cat fishing from a guy that was missing some of his front teeth. He lost them trying to pull out of a snag and the big weight shot back and hit him in the face. That was enough to scare me; he said if...

    Pigeon Hunting

    I built a trap. Catching pigeons your way sounds more exciting.

    Radon Mitigation

    That's good info, Allen, thank you. It seems my house is always under some form of construction! It's a 1970s vintage house so not under new construction, but we did the tile a couple of years back around the outside of the house due to water issues in the basement. I added a sump outside...

    Radon Mitigation

    We are going to be doing this as soon as our siding is done. We haven't checked the levels yet, but if our past run of luck continues I'm sure it will be sky high, so I'm just planning out the system. There are now online Radon monitors available and I plan to get one and watch for a while...

    Magnet Fishing

    I was working on a snowmobile a few years back in the driveway trying to figure out which cylinder was dead by pulling the plug wires. It barely idled so I had one hand on the throttle and the other pulling the wire. When I took the wire off I suppose I turned into a spark plug. I couldn't...

    Garden!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    We do the same but with big coffee cans. Though coffee doesn't seem to come in them any more; we get them from a friend who is a cook at a school.

    Also good is the pickle and/or olive loaf. Or head cheese. One thing I remember having a lot when I was young is jellied beef. It was chopped up roast beef in aspic, similar to head cheese. But I haven't been able to find it as an adult much. I might have to make a trip to Carrington. If...

    Insane wind today and wildfire.

    If you really hate yourself try a bike ride. I've always told myself the same, that the wind is our version of elevation training. On the bike it actually somewhat works. Running usually doesn't though because the mechanics are so much different when actually ascending/descending. The last...

    Headlamps

    I have a black diamond headlamp I use for running, hunting, camping, etc. that I bought 5 years or so ago. I don't remember the model but I'm guessing it's discontinued anyway. I remember looking specifically for one that used alkaline batteries because it's easier for me to carry an extra set...

    James River Headwaters

    I fell down an internet rabbit hole this morning and ended up looking at info about the James River. I could not find anything stating its origin or headwaters. Just that it 'arises' in Wells County. Does anyone know where it actually begins? A pond? A lake? Parking lot? I figured someone...

    New Rapala R12 Fillet Knife

    I always say hand tools are Marijuana, corded power tools are Coke, and cordless tools are Meth. Once you try it, you physiologically just need to have more and nothing else will suffice.

    I couldn't figure out how to upload it. It is pretty funny, she definitely exits the kitchen quickly.

    GSP Misbehaving

    Well the air spritzer seems to be effective. I laid a package of hot dog buns on the counter to entice her and she took the bait about a half hour after I left the house yesterday. She came nosing around and when the air canister went off she beat feet out of there and didn't come back in...

    GSP Misbehaving

    She is crate trained. She's never had trouble with that. We just had never exercised that option as it was never needed. We have been crating her when we are away, but figured since it was a relatively abrupt change there was something going on. It's also not practical all the time. My wife...

    GSP Misbehaving

    I used to run with her a lot. Usually 3-5 miles a day. This last year has been tough with work and my Mom having cancer so I definitely fell off the wagon. I guess that’s number 3 that I didn’t mention. Lack of activity could definitely be a part of it. She is always a better dog when she’s...
