Boxelder are among the worst!! In addition to your Ag Agent, check with your Conservation District folks if your office isn't far away.

You could simply move to the Medford OR area for the winter - the "banana belt". Get a little snow occasionally, but very little. Close, relatively inexpensive regarding travel and living expenses.

Yes, that's another attack if the foliage is smaller than something you'd use a chain saw on. Let the product work for a couple weeks until the foliage is dead and dry. I've heard about the fertilizer addition and never used it, but it sounds like it has potential. Depending on the time of year and ...

Treat the trunks as soon as they're cut - two person operation. Wear gloves, goggles and masks and mix the stuff four times as hot as recommended. BTW, if you're buying it "premixed" stop wasting your money.

Musical, first, if it runs and it's paid for, it's the cheapest vehicle you'll ever own. And it's fine. If it really bothers you, have you thought about buying some Rustoleum and painting it? Seriously. Who cares if you can see brush marks? Otherwise, pick up an "Auto Trader" magazine, or ...

It's NEVER cool and cloudy with no threat of rain when it's time to put hay up.

Well done!!

Tarlo Farm

Congratulations! What things did you do to the soil to improve yield? I'm a little concerned, you keep mentioning how humid it is. Are you sure you got your hay dry enough before it was baled?

[quote="Saddlebum" Roads are classified as A B C. "A" being a road big rigs can go down no matter the weather, frost laws etc. "B" roads they can go down but not when frost laws are in effect and that's as much as I can help here. Maybe go to the road commission and ask...

All good suggestions. And I think you should do ALL of them. Make some noise, be the squeaking wheel (sorry), get the community involved. In this day and age, folks are finding their voices and finding they CAN make a difference. Good luck, keep us posted. This kind of selfish $hit makes me crazy.

He is. He's a sweetie and will be just perfect for schlepping kids around on a lead line.

First post.

IMG_2041.JPG IMG_2050.jpg Found one! Serendipitous. My vet stopped by one day just to say hi, and as he was leaving, I asked him to keep his eyes open. He said, "Welllll..." Turns out his GF had an old guy at his farm who needed to find a forever home. He's at least 25, a brown and white ...

Tarlo Farm

Yep. That's the stuff. Sounds like you now have a good connection with your Ag store. That's always helpful and usually fun. Bring 'em cookies some time and they'll bend over backwards for you.

Tarlo Farm

Yes, you want Ag lime with no "fertilizers" in it. Just pelleted lime. Again, wait until after a good rain. You'll see the pellets for days or weeks, depending on your rainfall.

And don't feel locked into wherever you decide to place items until you've lived with the arrangement a year or so. Once you DO start developing a routine, you may find a different arrangement works better. Enjoy!

Tarlo Farm

Did you do a search in the "Facilities..." forum? We discussed this at length one time...it may have been the UDBB now I think of it... Pelleted lime is fine, and much less hassle and easier on your equipment. Like the powdered lime, once you get a rain, you can put the horses back on the ...

Go to the riverfront and just wander. It's gorgeous!

For those of you who haven't, it helps the rest of us know where you're talking about by including your location, either in your profile so it shows up under your photo, or at least in your text. Thanks.

Fresh water in Michigan. Good economy. Droughts, wildfires, tornados few and far between. Oh, and lots of fresh water.

I love my Discover card for the cash back option - and the customer service is the best! No Costcos close, and I'm looking specifically for flights. I wonder if United is offering any deals to improve their PR?

Tarlo Farm

Seriously, if any of you are interested, my 40 acre farm is for sale, I've downsized to eight + acres. Fresh water, indoor arena...PM me.

Tarlo Farm

Tornados.

Who has a card they like? Not an airline card, but a general card they use for FFM?

Michigan!! Too bad about that line for DH. Especially if you're interested in being snowbirds back to the PNW to visit the kids. Depending on where you are in MI; N-S and/or E-W, you can find a good dressage scene, steady weather without weird extremes of violent weather, lots of affordable land wi...

Check out the "60 Minutes Extra" It was pretty great too! Thanks "60 Minutes!"

I'm in DC. With friends, staying with their daughter and her roomies (I'm WAY too old for this), while they booked a room near Arlington. Anyone else?

Tarlo, the way I'd think about it is that he is still the same kind, generous, sweet, funny person you knew before; he hasn't changed and it appears you've enjoyed his friendship (searching for the appropriate word). The only thing that has changed is something you've learned about him. Wish it wer...

As the others have said. On a similar note, I have known an older man about four years now. He's kind, generous, sweet, funny, and I just found out via his SIL, racist! I don't know what to do about it. He and his wife travel in the same circle of friends in the summer as do I. We dine together ofte...

I'm headed your way March of 2018 if you're in CO then.

Tempest, you've been busy!! All amid illness. Welcome back, great photos, and congratulations!

Big Leggos. May as well start the process early.

I would send a card to home with a Visa gift card in it and a suggestion that they use it "to make your days more comfortable" Then they can choose what to do with it.

Got this from a friend. There are no words. Mentally ill neighbor. "***, maybe you’ve heard about the 13 therapy horses killed in a barn fire a few days ago — arson suspected. (Deb, probably too far away for you to have heard.). I didn’t recognize the people on TV, but wondered if it might be t...

Over the years I have walked countless hours to help save countless horses with obstructions. And then lost one to torque in a matter of a few hours. I hate colic. You did all that could possibly be done without a surgical unit onsite. Sleep well.

Good luck!

All the above from Rockabilly, and she was the first to extend the welcome to me. Just last week I pulled an old curb chain from a box of stuff to be brought to a tack sale. At my old farm, I really had a curb chain hanging in the mud room that I'd give a shake whenever necessary. Now I have it here...

Man, you sound lock-step with my friend who is, as I write this, waiting to be released from the hospital after her double mastectomy. I brought her in yesterday, surgery was five hours (including implanting the "stretchers"). She'll be home tonight and we have a crew to do her chores the ...

Crap. I'm so sorry. Jingles for good news and a happy future!

Younger than me!

56 I think. I'm going with isolation and hormones. I see the Pizzagate people protested at the White House Friday. All 24 of them.

The essential question is, what kind of pain? Then always go to doctor first. Chiro doesn't require the education that docs and PTs go through. Remember, joints don't go out of alignment easily unless it happens as an infant, and then you're often looking at traumatic accidents or abuse. Have you ev...

Good update. WARNING the drains are "no big deal" until they go to take them out. Ask for a local. The docs just rip them out: This-is-gonna-sting-a-little bit-my-ass! Actually he removed one yesterday and it wasn't painful at all. I have a high pain tolerance. So do I. Maybe yours weren'...
