I think I’ll do another driveway plow today. 🚜

I haven't plowed, just shoveled paths to the shop, the chicken pen, the bird feeders, and the area where the deer come for their breakfast. Good exercise, I guess. This snow is very heavy and "packable" and my little tractor would probably have trouble with it. Or could be that I just don't know how to do it properly.

Good morning y'all

Just when the roads were starting to clear up we got another 5" of snow yesterday afternoon
then to top it off my youngest son drove off the road leaving work last night so I got to spend a couple of hours getting him unstuck

Needless to say I'm NOT getting out today

Fly agaric are poison.
Red with bits of dried flour bits looking shrooms.
Called fly because pieces soaked in milk kill flies.
Not sure I'd want such milk lying about. But I'm not plagued with flies either.

Am I wrong, but shouldn't it be some kind of mandatory that a T-net entry member have to list his or her state of location on their profile? Yes I suppose you could lie, but there should be more to becoming a part of this forum than what it is....

I don't want the additional publicity or visitors.
Besides I've posted directions enough times to get here.

60f and sunny here, but Las Vegas valley is a no-go on weekends, people everywhere. Takes the fun right out of everything.
Maybe I'll go for a dirt bike ride or hike in the desert.

Better known as the Amanita Muscaria mushrooms.

Although poisonous is quite rare one can parboil it twice to weaken the toxicity and breaks down the mushrooms psychoactive substances, (like what fun is that?)
It's noted for it's hallucinogenic properties.
The 2 being muscimol and its neurotoxic precursor iboteni acid.

The tribal people of Siberia have ritual practices where the Sharman consumes the mushroom then the followers drink his urine because it's of not a toxic nature though it retains hallucinogenic properties.
(I'm not buying a ticket to Siberia to experience this-not a bucket lister event)

Good morning/lunch
I actually decided to go to work today. Roads were icy but I made it. Should be better on the way home

Anything under the branches?
I'd say it has a bit of core rot.
Trim the broken part back to the trunk.
If the hollow goes into the main trunk, then it lived it lifespan and serious thought on if it should come down.
