    Had to laugh when I read my profile

    My main client is www.ruralsprout.com a homesteading and gardening website. I get paid to write and photograph all the cool stuff I learned and did while growing up on an off-the-grid homestead. Not too bad. It's a great website, with lots of good info. I'm happy to be a part of it. Penn State...

    Had to laugh when I read my profile

    It's been a coons age since I've checked in here. But today it just felt right. I laughed when I logged in and read my profile: Job - Writer (and someday I might get paid for it.) Today I handed in my resignation at Penn State. Five years in the books. My last day will be August 31st. And...

    Aww, shucks, guys. Thanks! A might quieter than my 40th which included an insane charcuterie spread and a Tesla coil with a Faraday cage, but alas, apparently we can't party like that every year.

    Broken Pipe - Fatman

    Hello chaps, I haven't been around in ages, but I wanted to pop in to pay my respects to John. He was such a kind and giving soul and the world is a bit darker without him in it. I've wiped more than a couple of tears from my eyes this morning. Peace and love to his family.

    Be aware of your surroundings

    I am glad to hear that you are safe. Another vote for concealed carry from me! I also live out in the woods a bit. A few years back when I was working the closing shift at Barnes & Noble, a couple of nights in a row I noticed a pick up truck in the parking lot when it was closing time. No...

    Battling the dreaded Horn worm

    This was my first year having to deal with horn worms, after picking off 20 and still seeing dozens more I gave up and let them have the damn tomatoes. I have never seen an infestation like that before. The only thing I can say is I had better see lots of beautiful hawk moths next month! I hope...

    Nature

    We have several owls that live on our property including at least two screech owls. Man, I love listening to their calls. Raises the hair on the back of your neck it's so beautifully eerie.

    What have you folks been writing with?

    I have been using the same pen brand since age 12 when the woman I babysat for gave me one of hers, a blue Pilot Precise V5. When Andy and I spent our first Christmas together and he bought me two dozen of them I knew I was going to keep this man around.

    I like the black Ticonderogas and good 'ol USA Golds in natural.
