pootea


Record hot day today.  Trying a little experiment with my compost.  Each day when I water it, I am adding 3 gallons of tea made from extra longhorn dung that has soaked for 4 hours - moist poo on top and poo water to soak down.  It rained inside my Jiffy seed starter gizmo today - looks like I could use a big plastic lid over TFL.  Cut the header beams for the NS doorways today.  Topped off the day with a top 10 sunset.  75,86,44,0,W

Oh! That poo bucket is ugly! I have always admired your great photographic talent, but now, a little less so!:-)
I'm still good with the animals, flowers & landscapes though.

There is the most beautiful blue, acrylic (not exactly sure of the material, but it's almost see-thru) wall facing the elevators as you come off of the 24th floor (observation deck) of the M.D. Anderson building in Houston...and it very closely resembles your raindrops...as it's suppose to.....very pretty photo, as was the vivid sunset this evening.

You're getting dangerously close to being a politician. You know, shoveling a bunch of sh*t. The main difference between you and a politician though, is that your sh*t shoveling is actually for the better.

Be careful you could develope a compost that will burn your veggies.

My mom does the same thing with cow/horse manure and swears by it for her flower/tomato gardens. You could also build a bioreactor and marinate poop to get methane gas.

Cool photos today. Looks like you're moving forward on several fronts.
