    My poor pear trees have had a hard time. Put on tons of fruit, then appeared to get some fireblight, then broke a bunch of branches and dropped their fruit. Had some apples that dropped early too.

    The deer seem to like it mowed. They had been in it heavy this spring and early summer, but had shifted to other plots. After mowing they seem to be back in it more.

    Spring/Summer/Fall plots

    A little review of this yr's plot progress... Last fall planted a mix of clovers and alfalfa, with awnless wheat and rye. Spring and summer the deer were in it a lot. They ate the awnless wheat heads, didn't touch the rye heads. Lots of cover in that plot. Then they shifted to...

    Tool'n Knife Builds

    Just a testament to Tooln's knives. I have several of his that I take pretty good care of... but I keep one in the door of my truck for work use. Had to weld up a new gate and whatnot a few days ago and had his knife out for hazard duty, thought I'd take a pic and show some love. It's been...

    What's for dinner?

    It's addicting! The fun part is to leave uncut veggies out and let the kids modify for themselves. Not hot enough then add some jalapeños. Too hot add some tomatoes. Etc. Then walk away. Kids will spend all evening making their own creations, and not be on their phones.

    Time to lighten up - Laughter is good medicine Part II

    Never got to run an Imperial as they were outlawed at all the local races. Loved me some Newports and New Yorkers though. Cash for clunkers was one of the most stupid things I'd ever seen. Then the price of steel went sky high and demo cars got hard to find. I sold four 74 Impala's (with...

    I used to demo those mid-70's Chryslers, and their trunks aren't even the good part. Always drove those cars forwards instead of backwards.

    What's for dinner?

    Simple but good. Everything from garden except the lime juice and the thin toasted garlic bread.

    Conspiracy theorys, where do you stand?

    There was never a chance "we" were going to know who participated on that island. That was decided well before Epstein died. The only person who will be behind bars is already there, and she was very likely a victim of their crimes herself.

    Finally got on the brushhog. The wheat/rye had outgrown the alfalfa/clover mix, which is expected and wanted. But it was to the point falling over and growing too many weeds. I mowed it high. Imagine the thatch on top will get swallowed up soon. Looks way better!

    We had a blast at the KC tournament last weekend. Tim Duncan was there watching his boy play. He's a legend! But not exactly how I remember him with a beer belly and dreads. I'm not exactly built like I was in my youth either so there's that.

    Why is one not like the other?

    A few yrs ago I planted 25 persimmon seedlings. From plant to plant, and year to year you never know which is going to do well and which looks sickly. Haven't figured the goofy things out.

    When and What after Grow Tubes?

    I'd say it's time to cage them. Be careful if you have much wind. The top wire of the cage will rub the bark off those whips if they blow around much and aren't staked.
