Murphy's law was working the magic today. So I planted the other 30 Haskap plants today, getting on in the early pm I still hadn't really started.
Contractor return with that I had to serve a BIG PLATE of cheese for all the whining that was going on.
So I had enough it was either go to the berry patch or I was going to tell a few to arf off. So I took my lunch and Pips the hen and we went to work.
I'm just going to say this, when a chicken is higher on the ladder than humans what does say?
So she had her fill of grubs and worms and grass, crickets, so the Mrs took her home after I dug the 30 holes.
So yesterday the bare roots were long-so today I pre-dug all the holes, extra deep, and Murphy made all the roots short.

200 rasberries to go.

Couple years ago I planted 25 bare root black spruce with the utmost attention to not "J" folding any roots ect..Even pruned some roots.
Deer don't relish black spruce so all was well. Till deer relished....

Good afternoon All.

I hope all of you in the sunshine state are ok, no damage, and things dry out soon.

I hope Simon is ok. I think he had a Mrs., not sure tho, I'm relying on memory. Didn't he talked to the UK friend Tom on TNet too. Maybe he's heard from Simon.

WD, aloe may help with the itching, it worked better for the kids than calamine lotion. I will not ask why both your hands were elbow deep in poison ivy!

Thank you Msbeep! I started itching like crazy last night and I remembered your words. Just happen to have a bottle of aloe gel next to me. I rubbed it on and the relief was instant!!! I can’t wait until the mr gets it so I can look all smart and be the hero! [emoji1787]


Tom has been asking about Simon, also.

Oh the Doe the deer-the female deer. I have many tracks already, plus the resident buck.
Seems to be a good number of coyote tracks crossing also through the patch.
So I am fencing it for all furry creatures, starting from 1 foot down to 8ft up. 2 strands of electric, and some barb wire to top it off.

Neighbour was telling us that she caught a woman and a boy picking her blackberries, when asked what did she think she was doing? The woman replied: Oh I didn't think you were home"

Congrats! At the end, when I was informed my services were no longer needed?

I said....."GOOD!"

Been "walking" ever since....and loving every moment! More time for the priorities!

Well sir, I work for my husband, so my services will still be needed. He told me he was ready for a stay at home wife. Which translates that he wants supper on the table when he gets home from work. But, yea, a digging I will be anytime I want. [emoji4]

Morning WD, Dave

Good morning, antiquarian.

WD Hows your arm doing?

I carry the little prep alcohol wipes in the pocket when detecting. If I suspect that I touched the Ivy I will rub the site with the wipe to take the oil off. Worked out pretty good over the years, little blister is way better than big blister.
