We have done a thing…trenching from the well and electrical sources to the barn and coops.. 1. This will make mowing easier.. no pulling hoses that we used to get water to the barn or coops and no over head electrical wires draped thru the trees! 2. And in the winter, no more hauling water down to the barn or coops in the ice and snow. Hydrants have been installed near the barn and coops. 3. The trenching to the coops will eliminate the trip hazard of all the tree roots. Yeah!

Storing Fresh Eggs in Limewater (Keeps 12+ Months)

So, posted this on my personal page. Dave caught the snake and a rat in traps in the barn. The rat was taken pretty quick. It took a couple of days for something to eat the snake. Dave thinks a raccoon picked the flesh clean.
We joke that we are leaving offerings to the Owl god, as we have a Great horned owl on our property.

The new Facebook/Meta rule starts tomorrow where they can use your photos. Don't forget the deadline is today! This could be used in lawsuits against you. Everything you've ever posted is posted today - even messages that have been deleted. It doesn't cost anything, just copy and post, better than regretting later.
Under UCC Law Sections 1-207, 1-308... I am imposing my Reservation of Rights...
I DO NOT ALLOW Facebook/Meta or any other Facebook/Meta related person to use my photos, information, messages or messages, both in the past and in the future. This statement I inform Facebook/Meta that it is strictly prohibited to disclose, copy, distribute or take any other action against me based on this account and / or its contents. This account content is private and confidential information. Violation of my personal life may be punished by law.
NOTE: Facebook/Meta is now a public organization. All participants should post a note like this.
If you prefer, you can copy and paste this version. If you don't publish a discharge at least once, you'll automatically allow the use of your photos, as well as the information contained in your account status updates. NOT ′′ share ′′ but ′′ copy + paste "!
Their new algorithm is chosen by the same people - about 25 who will read your posts.
Consequently:
Hold your finger anywhere in this post and a copy will appear. Click on Copy. Then go to your page, start a new post and place your finger in an empty field. ′′ Insert ′′ will appear and you will click on it. This will pass the system.
I'm not giving Facebook/Meta permission to share my information posted on their website. PHOTOS, CURRENT or PAST, PUBLICATION, PHONE NUMBER OR POST... Absolutely nothing can be used in any form without my written permission.

Dave tweaked the nutrient solution and added air stones to the buckets.. wow, what a difference !! The left 4 buckets are tomatoes from my first planting of The aero gardens. Boy, are they producing. The buckets are from the latest transplant from the AeroGarden into the buckets. They will green up and bush out like the ones to the left.
