I lived in England for two years during the late 60s. Loved it. Birkenhead, Middleton, New Castle, Manchester, Wiggins, Middlesbrough, Leeds (Wakefield),

Nothing like the beautiful English countryside.

Some flowers are just to beautiful for words. Actually all flowers are too beautiful for words.

Probably they the time they think about the acronym they could have typed it out.

There are people that are paying for their opinion with their lives on both sides of the situation, vaccinated or unvaccinated. It seems one can find a study pointing to both sides of the equation. My brother and his wife both got Covid and survived and immediately after went and got the booster which makes little sense to me because natural immunity is much better than vaccination.
Beside if you have not noticed they are now just reporting the number of cases and not the actual deaths because the later strains are less virulent than the initial ones. But they keep up the fear factor. Now they are pushing the vaccine for 6 months old even though there is nothing to back up their claims. That was pointed out in the beginning. But they do not mention that there 5 new billionaires created by the vaccines.

That is actually the correct name for them but we have always, erroneously, called them the cabbage looper moth. We are plagued with them and you can take all you want. They lay their eggs on the Cole crops and the worms will devastate your cabbage.

It works both ways, depending on if you want to look at how much it cost to become full or how much the value of the gas is already in the tank.

[quote=Curmudgeon]I fail to see the concern about the "destruction" in Yellowstone NP. Floods, like fires and earthquakes are part what shapes the Yellowstone eco system. If destruction means to the infrastructure, like roads, bridges and structures I feel no loss and, personally, I would prefer to not see them rebuilt. Allow one 2 lane road between West Yellowstone and Grand Teton National Park. Provide trail head parking along this route. No motorized vehicles, private or NPS would be allowed off road for any reason.

Put large parking lots where there are now entrances and let the National Park Service Rangers do what they should be doing--Range. Lead Day Hikes, Week or longer back packing trips into the back country. Encourage Contractors conduct weeks long back country excursions using horses and mules. Encourage non guided back pack trips since there is no better way to learn back country skills than by applying them.[/quote
You do realize how big that park actually is. It is not a small park like Zion, where a day trip will satisfy.

Thanks Mark. Do a little Beegie Adair, I was just turned onto her.

Good one.

I like think they are so lovely but be careful they are toxic.

Nice perspective. Thanks.

Nor sure but thanks I will have to check it out. Our ground never freezes, except in 2013 it froze down three inches and the pipes are 3 to 4 feet under.

had that happen to an acquaintance in Vegas. He was draining his tank and forgot about the pilot light.

In my area what he describes we call a ground source heat pump (?). I have one and it contains five wells 180 deep, is a CLOSED SYSTEM with only water in the pipes, runs only water so if there is a leakage it would only be water. I see no way it could contaminate anything. Cost more to install but recovered the cost after seven years and we have lived here for 30. Tanks may be different from my pipes. I was supposed to have 3 wells 220 feet deep but the well collapsed around the pipes so we could go not deeper. Supposedly we have an Aquaphor down there, somewhere.
