I am thinking wrench has? I asked if I could go meet him someday. He said yes and shortly after quit posting. Right after loosing the arm use.

Nope just a few years difference in age.😁

Good morning Mitch!

Hear anything yet? Figure you might be still awake? I'm up. Hope you get an alarm on your phone right now.😂

I'm jealous.

I have you know I have learned to roll under fences now? Can you relate?

Don't bait me like that John. Oh well you went and done it. All you needed was another few inches to see over the three foot drift! Love you buddy!

Snow too over the fences that were in the ditches.

The Out means this isn't up for debate!

We don't know Nick. That is why I posted. No one has heard anything out of him. If so no one has said. He has become a fragile guy just worried.

Seems this innocent thread has produced quite the quandary! Might have to get a forum to make a decision. Oh crud forget that not going to work on this network! Conspiracy will be questioned about the panel of participants. Hand picked, friends, cohorts etc.

Interesting thanks. One would think though we would hear more about this if it is happening. Are the black SUVs and special ops guys on the job snuffing out the ones effected?

Here is what I have came up with, consensus is it started in Peru. Then spread from there. Easy to think it could and is spreading north to the border. Said it is spreading that way. I would like definite numbers from the border. if anyone finds them I would like to see them.

Yes I did and would like a civil discussion thank you in advance

There was an excerpt on this mornings news. Gave to current totals of the illegal crossers into the states this morning. Another count of those infected and how many were sent back. The numbers were unreal. Not sure which variant. On the new variant this is the first I have heard of it. Do you have a trusted source of where it first showed up here and counts? Please I would like to read it. It could of made the news before and I missed it. I like to keep informed for making choices. I don't get my decisions by guessing and at the swap meet Which brings me to a rural young farm couple. Nice people, we had a brief visit yesterday. They said they were going on a cruse soon. Said they liked to take a break from farm life. She told me they were on one of the last cruses before the pandemic got here. Now ready to go again I asked dod you all get the vaccine? A quick no I thought ooh boy but gave my response of the friends we have lost and what my wife sees at work. Nicely the way I like it they decided to wait until it was proven safe and then into a story about some people they know who got their kids vaccinated and now those kids were not quite right in the head? Real quick I wanted to say what teenager is always right in the head but I held back. Got my point across and everyman and woman has a choice but theories again abound right now.

That's good! wonder what mad scientist created smallpox and polio? I do know germ warfare was created many moons ago as corpses were thrown over walls of castles with catapults and trebuchet to spread germs to the others. That and smallpox infected blankets were given to the natives here to make them sick and die.

Conspiracy theory's are all over the place. We hear them but what are we doing pick one and think that is the right one? Viruses mutate. They do this to survive. So wherever or however this started we may never know but it does and will continue to until we outsmart it or be smart about it and get heard immunity to eradicate it. Think Polio, smallpox and other types. It can be done but it will take all of us to do it. I do not fear it nor did I say so Glen. I am trying to be smart about it and listen to the ones who are smarter than I am which there are many. If I fall to it I have had a good life but I'm not going to roll the dice and see if it will happen. I see the odds and am hedging my bet on the odds. Now to another problem. The plague is rearing it's ugly head in Western states like California. Closing land to public use because the fleas on the rodents. Deaths have occurred. They should call out the air gun force to kill the chipmunks and ground squirrels . As far as finding out exactly where this covid deal started ? We may never know because the communist country China will never tell. Like I said the virus will mutate and it could of been in the wet market? I have seen pictures and it isn't the most sanitary place to sell and prepare food. You all think I eat some weird stuff? Go see the varied menus of other countries. Ah that would be a no thank you to what they eat.

@oneshot @oneshot 1 Been missing you man. Thinking we might have to start worrying? Anyway I am posting a link for you. Please everyone do not make this political or racist. Oneshot made a remark about Covid coming across the border. Well folks we have another variant and it originated in Peru. It is now crossing our southern border. This is just a PSA and I am wishing the un vaccinated would get your shot even if you don't believe in it. As I said before I have done it but since I could potentially now carry it and not know to some not vaccinated persons I am masking up in crowds again. I am thinking of others. Just got word a girl scout troop and parents made a trip South East. A bunch of youngsters are now sick in our county to go with a bunch of every age group. Stay safe all of you. Watch your backside and others for them, HARTZLER SAYS PEOPLE CROSSING U.S.-MEXICO BORDER BRINGING NEW COVID VARIANT (knemknmo.com) Marty

Easy by their itty bitty wings.

Lots of herbs are perennial and you can have them the next year. Of course you know that. We have a patch of oregano and Mexican oregano, sage, Both German thyme and lemon thyme that over winter. Some garlic chives. They can go pretty crazy but we do some pulling to control them. We pot out basil and up until this year our rosemary. Last year before the deep crazy freeze I noticed some green on the two plants. Took the planters in the shop. This Spring put them both into the ground and good grief we have it nice, plenty to use and dehydrate again. Looks better than in the pots from previous years even. This winter I may dig it up and bring inside again. If you want any of these herbs come get them. Oh yea you will have to drive out of your four county area. Maybe we can do a lunch and I will deliver this fall?,

Tomatoes really coming in now. First to ripen was the Cherokee purple. Had not planted those in years but @ness has such good luck I thought I would give them a try. Black Krim and celebrity are not far behind. Cherries galore yellow and red. Peppers too. Lots of jalapenos and serrano. Looking good except for a couple plants with leaf curl. Then some death of branches . So many fruits not an issue and plenty to share with friends. Not planning on and dehydrating this year. Still have gallons left. Good as the day we did them. Did some trimming and topping off of plants today. So many tomatoes below and no need to fight tying up the tops. Sometimes it can be a hassle and I don't want to use the ladder to work them. Cucumbers are kaput and I pulled them.

Oh and horizontal or vertical too. If you go like I did you can put one on top.

Skillets! Amazon! Yea

Ha buddy, That is on the back screened in porch. Do a bunch of cooking in there and my buddy from Herman says I need a fire extinguisher hanging out there. I am getting one. No cast iron in that pic but here are some of the daily users I say some because I am a cast iron hoarder,
