    Garden 2020

    I threw as much compost as I could make at my garden, but also bought some mushroom compost. I added peat every year. I finally found coir, coco fiber, and it lasts longer than peat. I had more clay than sand, but they both need the same things.

    Fixing old machines

    There's a lot on YouTube. A couple of years ago my son showed me a few videos of people restoring very old hand tools.

    Music for the day

    I sent some videos of his work, skill, to my son earlier this year. The poor boy had never heard of him. I had been remiss. It's as bad as not knowing that John Hartford wrote Gentle On My Mind. ETA Worse!

    Dead in the Pines

    That guy looks as though he's led a pretty hard life. I've recently watched a few Investigation Discovery channel programs, and this looks like something that they'd feature. Forget ghosts and things that go bump in the night; people are far more frightening.

    I don't know how to start a thread here. My son moved to Pine Hill four months ago. He's a block from from Pine Valley, and he found a two foot long skin in his basement yesterday. He doesn't know anything about snakes. I'm hoping that someone here can help. Gerania, Gillian

    Ancient graves of Sayers & Ludlams

    I thought that they were older. I used to have a paper copy of them. Renee was going to order a set and asked if anyone else wanted them. The maps, papers were huge and had to be printed by a local architect. Has anyone else here taken an old fashioned drafting class?

    Secret room discovered under house turns out to be part of American history

    That was very interesting. Thank you. 17. "...By 1850 the Underground Railroad ran all the way from the deep South to Canada. That was largely thanks to the ex-slave who was known as the “Father of the Underground Railroad.” His name was William Still, and his base of operations was just six...
