Got ya. I know several ppl that's had knee replacement surgery.

Same here, it hurts and these folks could tolerate a lot of pain. I would not do two at once either.

Up in the nose bleed section, huh? I'm sitting at 719'.

98 feet here. Ocean front property once the glaciers melt.

Me too.

Both of mine replaced, but not at the same time. That would be brutal.

We sit at 5800 feet here at the house.

I am right there with you. Only minutes west it climbs to 8,500 and less than a half hour it is 10,000 plus.

First load is down and heading towards the burn pile. Unfortunately, there’s more to go

Hey ya'll....Well, I worked on my greenhouse some yesterday, just starting to get the frame together. Found out, it's not so great, but it will have to work. Lots of video on Youtube of things folks had to do to get it right.
In the meantime, I was devoured by grass piranha, aka chiggers...those dang things tore me up, bites on feet, legs, arms, hands, under arm, stomach. I haven't had any trouble with them in awhile...I put stuff on the yard sometimes to get rid of the ticks,m and chiggers, stopped doing it last year, because I noticed our local toad, and lizard population seemed to be declining.

What you are describing sounds more like turkey ticks, than chiggers.

Believe me Jan most all growers that have been at this awhile know what mites look like.

Don't say that. Not even in your dreams. I wouldn't be able to walk for a week

My favorite. Only problem is all these veggies we can and process plus veggies directly from the garden Mrs Pute gives away! That plate of dehydrated I posted yesterday is in the hands of my daughter as we speak.

Most people would save this for winter but not Mrs Pute.....she thinks she is the neighborhood food bank.

I haven't had a chigger bite since Moving to Colorado in 1973.....we don't have them here. But I remember they are way worse that a mosquito bite. Sulfur in you socks and waist band helps keep them away.

Either way I want nothing to do with them.

Along with tornadoes, yet another thing that I don't miss about the Midwest.
