Found all the worms eating my spud plant leaves, and fed them to the chickens, but the leaves were not comming back....
Finally found the other critters feasting on my plants or the worm eggs.
If it isn't deer, worms, or hoppers, I would have had a decent crop this year.

Yesterday evening crowds made their into the grassy knoll aside the gravel path that leads to Launch Pad 39-B to catch what will likely be their last chance for a close-up view of the 5.75 million-pound, 322-foot-tall moon rocket. THAT IS 2875 TONS! Unfuelled. This is the big show in about 15 days or so. More thrust than your 60's technology Saturn V rocket. Launching from 39B a former shuttle pad. One of the four main engines will use a spark igniter to light the candle. This igniter first flew on STS-1 Crippen & Young in 1981. This will be its last flight. But it has been around flying into and back from space for 41 years, a record for any rocket engine part.
G*D speed Artemis I.

What's up folks, haven't logged in here for a while, summer, dedicating family time... limiting screen time and so on. Haven't really ridden much this summer or the past spring. Was up in Canada (the real one not the pseudo imtbtrails version) for the first half of the summer. Family camping up in Santa Margarita a few weeks ago, so have been keeping busy at least. Now it's back to the grind for another school year. IF i do ride it's Mostly clamshell from the doorstep. It used to feel like my regular workouts were there to support my mountain biking, nowadays it's more like I squeeze in a ride now and then to support the regular workouts. Just realized I haven't ridden El P in over a year... what a shame.

Methinks you're talking about the Canada I used to see from my back yard... I could almost wave to my relatives! :laugh:

Glad you're back... :thumbsup:
