    WORD OF CAUTION- concerning the use of generators

    Friends, I posted this under the thread that FH started about backup generators. I thought it important enough to re-post as a new topic: WORD OF CAUTION! Aside from all the good ideas here about backup generators, I want to offer an important personal experience of mine. A half dozen...

    Need advice on buying a generator

    WORD OF CAUTION! Aside from all the good ideas here about backup generators, I want to offer an important personal experience of mine. A half dozen years ago, I bought a gas powered generator, something like an 8000-9000 watt outfit, to run our house in a power failure. My brilliant idea...

    Thanks for the kind words of sympathy. My dad was in such awful pain the last few weeks of his life, due to his bad hip and other ailments, that death was a blessing for him. His family had a couple of weeks to see him and talk with him before his passing which was another blessing for all of...

    Mark Levin's Liberty Amendments

    How many saw Sean Hannity's Show on Friday night? He had Mark Levin on for the full hour, with a panel of Conservatives, discussing his plan to "re-establish" the Constitution, as he outlines in his new book "The Liberty Amendments". The panel offered an occasional differing opinion but...

    Wide Swathing

    I take the windrow shields off of my swather to make the widest swath possible, then rake two together before it's baled. In good haying weather, it will dry in one day, which to me, obviously produces better quality hay than if it needs to cure for two or three days. We cut only native...

    Rye Hay

    One year when we were short of hay, I bought and fed several loads of rye hay. I don't remember how it tested, but the cows liked it and by spring, we had lots of rye coming up where ever the hay was fed. I decided it would be great stuff to feed on eroded areas where some cover and early...

    More Music Videos...

    It's been foggy this morning and I put my little riding job on hold until it clears up. So what to do, to kill a little time? YouTube, of course!! In an email communication with my sister-in-law from Germany, she directed me to check out the Dire Straits song, "Ticket to Heaven"...
