Well, ive tilled up more land. My leg is killing me and put me down again. Its pretty ground up today. But I got my work started! I love my flowers! Im going to scatter more seeds down below. I made a terrace about 200’ long, and around 6’ wide, to catch run off water a little better.

This Maple is dying. A full 1/3rd has already sheered off and landed on my roof. I might have to have this one removed. It leans hard towards a 500 gal. Propane tank.

They burrow or borrow other abandoned holes. Hollow logs. June is egg laying time. Drive down backroads with a BUCKET in the car. They get on hot pavement to warm their belly before laying eggs. I pick up hundreds a year from roads. Ive even hatched them in a coffee cup!

First off, HI! Start with what you have. THAT Turtle, is an ORNATE BOX TURTLE and it is, and has been on the ENDANGERED SPECIES LIST for some time. If you have a gathering place for these rare creatures, its probably egg laying ground. Thats RARE! You are Guardians! Stand up for them!

Not much to look at, the deconstructed house w/ new roof has never been finished. I had just enough time to remove the last of three chimneys before snow flew. Im still cleaning up, bricks, lumber, and steel. Im almost done! This place was a garbage dump! So its improving! Always cleaning!

as I empty the other half of my life from ghis space it suddenly started to fill. These are my Ancestors. My Honored Dead. I want the table gone. A sitting room for the Spirit World. Maybe a recliner. I even found a Vets Ashes and his Photo. I still need to keep a Promise. Just one more. He waits.

Moved the cabinet out completely and took the wall mounted dish display racks off the walls. I HATE THAT GRANDMA PLATE DISPLAYING BULLSHIT! Anyway, getting a normal amout of furniture in a room would help immensely. Im looking for art. A lot has been destroyed. Im thinking drop down movie screen.

According to all map requests. That place does not exist! Congradulations! It does look to be around what? The 39th parallel?? Same as us. The weather is usually very close to the same at parallels. With exception of koreas 38th parallel. That place is way off the charts!
