I have mixed potash for decades. I will sift and mix deep with fresh garden soil and mulch. About 6 inches underneath is cardboard. Great for keeping out weeds, worms love it and its a natural feed.

Fresh pine. Tip is paranoid. Lumber mill leftovers, fresh cut no chemicals lol geezuz

Putting some potash in the garden for tilling before we plant veggies Memorial day. Partly cloudy. Breezy but comfortable

Don't know what Dot Rat is talking about numbers indicate its 20 to 30 year olds on the dole

Needed to dry out after the monsoon. Cocadoodledewlessness

Yikes 40 here

I had to have 10000 hrs on the job with 650 hrs of book work basically 2 years of trade school

I went to college for 2 years 78 79 then got married and had a kid. Needed to work full so I took a job as a plumbing apprentice. Received my license in 83 and worked until laid off in 89 when the recession began. Went back to college while working full time at various jobs and finished my Environmental Science degree in 93. Pay was low and I floundered at an EPA lab and Pfizer so I looked for a trade job. So happened Foxwoods was starting to boom and needed people with trade school and fire protection experience. 4 years of that led to a facility manager position which I held for 25 years. So basically my story is a combination of both skill sets led me to a good career. I suggest anybody who gets into the trades supplement their education with continuing education courses. The problem with trades are they are cyclical and its best to have a horse to fall back on.

The chamber has arrived. C.O.C. for days and days

Still waiting for full leaf out. Small leaves in thy hills. Hickory just budded

Describes my hill 250 to 750 in 1/2 mile. Seen it many times. Rain to snow.

Just the absolute perfect day for yard work, mow, weed whacked. Lunch on the deck beautiful breeze high sun. Cocadoodledewlessness

Why the move?

This is an awesome story. It is extremely hard to foster then give them up. We have had now 68 dogs we have fostered some for as little as a week and some as long as a year. However the joy of knowing they are going to great loving homes is pretty cool. Both our foster pups have been adopted. I fell in love with this guy, you can just tell the temperment even at a very young age. He will be a great pet going to a family in NY. They were at my house yesterday, the connection was instant. Often times the dogs sense they are safe immediately. Cool stuff

Trace all surfaces were wet, was weed whacking

Frost on the pumpkin this morning 37⁰

Modfan sent me this bad news we lost a forum poster @kbc360 an infrequent poster but a nearby neighbor and a snow plow operator for CT DOT who often posted snow totals as he traveled around ECT. RIP Keith It is with a heavy heart to inform you that we lost my wife's brother, Keith Cooper at 2:45 am this morning at the age of 53, after a brief illness and a broken heart. Keith and my wife Lisa lost their dad, role model, hero, mentor, and best friend just a few short months ago and it has been very difficult on both of them. Keith loved life, had a very high IQ and drive. After basic schooling, he excelled in the fire and EMS service, joined the Navy, and was part of the Navy-air department during desert storm, an emergency 911 dispatcher for northeastern CT. For many years, fire chief for Williamsville Fire Engine Company, part of the emergency team for Homeland security's North Eastern CT. area and a good friend to many. In his spare time, Keith was employed by CT. DOT where he also excelled in the permitting and inspection office at the main office in Norwich.

AWT Eric ( Radarman) posted this elsewhere Super informative paper... King's College of London lead... Sample size 627,383 vaccinated patients https://www.thelancet.com/journals/laninf/article/PIIS1473-3099(21)00224-3/fulltext A few highlights: 1) As many have suspected, the reaction to the vaccine is far worse if you've had Covid already. "Systemic side-effects were more common (1·6 times after the first dose of ChAdOx1 nCoV-19 (aka Oxford/AstraZeneca) and 2·9 times after the first dose of BNT162b2 (aka Pfizer)) among individuals with previous SARS-CoV-2 infection than among those without known past infection. Local effects were similarly higher in individuals previously infected than in those without known past infection (1·4 times after the first dose of ChAdOx1 nCoV-19 and 1·2 times after the first dose of BNT162b2). " 2) There is no difference in side affects if you had covid recently, or quite awhile ago " No consistent difference in occurrence of systemic or local adverse effects was observed between individuals who reported a positive test result within the past 6 months and those who reported they received a positive test result at least 6 months ago " 3) Infection risk reduction peaked at 60% for AstraZeneca at day 12, 69% Pfizer (shot1) at day 21-44, 72% at day 44-59 (shot 2) "Significant reductions in infection risk were seen starting at 12 days after the first dose, reaching 60% (95% CI 49–68) for ChAdOx1 nCoV-19 and 69% (66–72) for BNT162b2 at 21–44 days and 72% (63–79) for BNT162b2 after 45–59 days." 4) In a separate sample group over an observation period of 14mos (starting Jan 2020) 10.8% of unvaxxed participants tested positive, and 3% of vaxxed participants tested positive. (Note- vaccine wasn't ready in Jan 2020, so it's a shorter observation window implying less chance of exposure... but also to note some of those 3% likely contracted it shortly after getting the vaccine, before it takes affect) "3106 of 103 622 vaccinated individuals and 50 340 of 464 356 unvaccinated controls tested positive for SARS-CoV-2 infection." My conclusions... a) the vaccines generally work and reduce risk substantially, but perhaps not as well as was reported in phase 3 trials b) the vaccines are nowhere near as effective as natural immunity c) if you've previously had covid, you are very likely to have substantial side effects no matter how long it's been since you've had it, with almost nothing to gain

It was rain there though

Had to turn on the flipping heat. House was 62. Helluva way to run Mayorch
