    You guys know that it really was Clapton on While My Guitar Gently Weeps – right?

    I vote for Taxman. I mean the song.

    Jacki,
    the flowers are beautiful.
    Thomas R., David – it’s good to see Jahn Denver again.
    I never knew the muppets could hold still for so long.

    David – you are so right.
    It’s much easier to maintain a 10 minute pace when you only weigh 134.

    Are there any Poco heads out there in the MLTC?
    I just discovered this.

    I guess old M.D. got better mileage that way. I know that’s awful.

    In kilometers i run at a 10 minute pace. That sounds so much better.

    Dear Jacki,
    we are all doing the best with what we have.
    I am very fortunate to have enough land for a garden and fruit trees even though i don’t own the land.
    I hope you live near a Farmer’s Market. They are great people to know.

    I don’t know if this is helpful Jacki, but i have become a great admirer of The Prepper Princess.
    She post lots of ideas about doing well without having money to burn.

    Jung – great photos. I hope i remember to post our sunflower fields this summer.

    I remember in sixth grade my teacher saying. we were inching toward the Metric System.
    It was humor but he meant it too.
    I guess Canada made it.

    Rick,
    the Twins won’t answer a post more than once.
    Imagine how much work that would be.

    I’m going to check out that sonf when i get in my car.
    Thanks

    Jung and Jackie,

    Arlo did Alices’s Restaurant way back during the Vietnam war.
    His most famous recording was Steve Goodman’s City of New Orleans.

    Maybe someday units of measure down here won’t be 2.54cm and 8/5 klicks – eh?

    Here is the song author’s version on Am Music Shop w/ Jerry Douglas on dobro.

    Jackie,
    gardening has it’s trial and tribulations.
    Don’t give up so easy.

    The main issue is to find things you like which do well in your climate.

    I have it easy here.
    All i have to do is make sure plants get water.

    Seriously – try again.
    (Leprechauns should have a green thumb).
    Happy Spring

    Well Jung we seem to have some cross-pollenation going on,
    with Mona as the busy bee in between.

    I have a big unfair advantage down here in the Central Valley.
    It’s sunny and hot – too hot – all summer.
    But i am trying to be a prepper and i tend to grow in bulk
    what i can dehydrate and store for the long term.
    Also i have too limited space to grow much variety.

    But it’s like Ron Finley says …
    growing your own food is like printing your own money.

    If we all thought like Ron Finley we could save the world.

    Here is Arlo Guthrie singing The Garden Song and telling a story about
    crossing the Canadian American border. You know Arlo.

    Thomas R,
    You’re my hero.

    I grow tomatoes, eggplant, zucchini, melons and peppers.
    I am kind of a high-yield low-maintenance type of guy.
    We all need to exchange photos in a few weeks and late in the season.

    Mona just responded to my gardening post.
    Check it out and check out Ron Finley when you find the time.

    Cheers to all

    I think i was thinking of Day Tripper.
    Another Lennon She-done-me-wrong song.
    But again – the Twins made it fresh and not angry.

    I NEVER needed to hear These Boots Are Made For Waliking again …
    Nancy Sinatra sounded vindictive – but the Twins made it sound like just a pretty song.

    On the other hand – there’s no saving Mercedes Benz – it just can’t be done.
    But that’s just me.

    P.S.
    Everyone check out Mona responded to my (and Jung’s) gardening post(s).

    Thanks to Mona for the update.

    Since i posted this Jung has started another gardening thread.
    I seem to think like a few great minds in the club.

    Now everyone get out there and put some roots in the ground.
    Cheers
