Hey just wanted to let you know I am now the proud owner of that monitor cable thingy we wanted for hooking up the AV system at the Grange. I could probably meet you over there to try it out, maybe tuesday or wednesday night. Next week works too. lemmee know!
Don, can I get a ride home from the movie on Friday night? I will be in town and will get a bus to the theatre but I think it will be at best a 2 hour bus ride home. Pretty please?
Hey Don, any idea how I can get keys to the Grange sometime so I can prep for the meeting tomorrow night? I was thinking of showing up there about 30 minutes early, maybe 6:45 to 7.....Thanks!
Thank you for posting the photos, Don. I've wanted to have a chance to visit, but couldn't find the time. It's so good to see how the gardens are progressing. Great job!!!
Great slide show. I loved the bees and it looked like you caught a swarm there! Did the man in the van come to your house to extract the honey? How long have you been a bee keeper?
Now the garden work, how long has the group been together? Our group is new. We have 8 constant participants and 2 drop ins. I would love to know how you all are organized. We are at 7,000 feet and the weather gave us a late start.

50 bucks an hour is about the lowest i'd go before I'd start worrying about the quailty of the job done....and he's licensed and insured. Just a thought. I can throw in a few bucks on this job.

Ha ha...I've yet to see any real social change come about from ANY executive branch of the U.S. government in the last 50 years. If only.
