Hm that's a AK-47!
That means the kitty is a terrorist. Hold on i'm calling the CIA
I'd call the pound. They are missing a cat.
Good morning, Voltmoaniacs.
I don't know. I think I like some of the new set up at ECF. I like the quote in a color bar.
It seems to be running faster.
Of course, I don't know much about programs and computers.
We got so much done yesterday! We got rid of the old TV cabinet I made into an armoire. I gave another neighbor some plants. My gardening buddy came over and we got potatoes planted. Two kind, Russian banana and Yukon Gold.
Hubby got the rest of the North veggie garden composted and rototilled. We still have the South 40x80 to do but it is nice to be halfway there.
I got the tubing laid down for the North Zone, as well. I had to order a few more tubing valve line starters and tubing enders so I will finish up the last couple of rows later in the week. We are ready to plant peas [Chinese pea pods and snap peas]. Maybe carrots and lettuce and rads, as well.
We got the gutters ordered from Home Sleazo and they are ready for pick up on Tuesday. We went with steel gutters. We have never done gutters before [neither of us] so I hope this goes smoothly.
I got the horse pen half cleaned up and will do the other half and the goat pen today.
The weeding is on going.

Busy as always, aren't you, Lizzie? I hear Yukon Gold potatoes are the best kind to make mashed potatoes. I got on a mashed potato jag a while ago and looked up on the Internet the best way to make them, where I learned that. Another thing is to cut them into small pieces to boil them. It goes faster. And when they are boiled, drain the water and then heat them over the fire a few minutes to dry out all the water that might linger in them. So that's what I do now.

How are you doing with the grooming and exercise business?
I spent yesterday and the day before making stuffed animals for the church Fall Festival.

May I ask for a pic of the animals you make? When my daughter was young we used to collect them so much so I would like to see what you make...
I have two jointed teddy bears, large and small, a sitting squirrel, two-piece bear and bunny, a large jointed bunny, a sitting dog, a standing cat, an elephant, a stylized dog, and a turtle. The new ones are a standing squirrel, a whale, a stylized moose, and a stylized giraffe, and a kangaroo. I am taking the new ones into town today to make enlarged photocopies.
I already used up most of the joints and eyes I got Saturday. Will have to place another order, once I get a bunch more cut out and assembled, and find out what I need.
Both social threads have asked for pix. Will do so when I finish-- maybe a month or so.

Morning Volties. I wanted to share Rave's and my adventure into my woods last Weds. She did a sleep-over so we had plenty of time to explore.
Good news first: We found 2 morels. Not much but at least we know they are there. We found lots of pretty flowers that I didn't know the name of. The ones I remember are May Apples, Violets, Spring Beauties, Jack and the Pulpit and something Goldensel. She laughed at my pond-not.
It's only a test hole about 2' x 2' and around 5" deep but it's holding water and that is what I wanted to know.
Bad news: A lot of my trees are dead or dying, mostly Poplar. Some of the larger trees have Virginia Creeper all the way to the top and we saw a lot of Tent Caterpillar nests. We even found a tree that was entombed from ground to top with silk and crawling with caterpillars.
We even found a grape ivy vine that was at least 4" in diameter and went clear to the top of a tree. 
I cut a chunk out of the base so hopefully it will die.
As usual we had a great time. We spent a lot of time chattin and exploring. I always hate it when she leaves.

Have you all figured out yet that you don't have to click on that itty bitty blue dot at the beginning of a tread to get to the first unread post? Just click on the title.
"Hello, I'd like to report Hello Kitty..."Hm that's a AK-47!

WHOOPPPIE . . .
Now - We'll wait to see if the other show up too . . .
I got my tag too, Uncle. Better late than never, huh?
Thank gawd they left the. I'd be lost without that one.
You and me both!!
Oh, I do make and love frittatas and quiche, but today I only had a bowl of spaghetti and one egg left.
Yeah, it's kinda rude. And suddenly I feel like I'm being strong-armed into donating and I don't even have enough money to survive right now.
Oh, I can't like those two posts, Cindy. But - I've been there too. Way back in the bad ole days.
One thing I noticed. This thread is the most active I've seen it on the weekend lol.
Good point!
Not this ole gal. I'm a lazy bum. I've waited until they got most of the kinks worked out, and the rest of you figured everything out for me!
Yep. Rave says this is the only species in Indiana or at least in my area. So far I've only seen the male. He either doesn't have a mate or he isn't willing to share.
Yep - only hummingbird species east of the Mississippi. The males arrive first in most of the migratory birds to stake out their claims and work out territorial battles. Then the ladies arrive and choose from the victors. Sounds like a good system to me!

I'm still trying to muddle through all of this, and will probably have to test a bunch of stuff out.
