Very nice!!!

Makes sense...

I might check into those for next year, in case we take a trip during the summer. This year we haven't so I've been able to keep a pretty close eye on them. I've likely gone overboard on waiting to water them, after drowning all of the chestnuts last year I tried to grow from seed. The potting...

Well the eventual goal of getting some big chestnut trees on our place continues to be a tough one to realize. I thought I’d lost 2 of the rootmaker bareroot project, but I guess the roots are still going strong. The persimmons continue to out-tuff the chestnuts…

Well, I guess the roots are still kicking anyway…

An incredible year for sure!

The exact reason we have way more stands than we can effectively hunt, i love options, and also love hunting a stand for the first time each fall. Unless circumstances are highly unusual, we like give stands a week break in b/t hunting them.

I was given an Ozonics kit several years ago as a gift. It was an unexpected gift and I wasn’t a believer in it at all. I do now believe it has its place though and it has helped me over the last few years. I still take reasonable precautions to keep my clothes relatively odor free and I’ve come...

Place is looking great as always! I’m still a cheapskate, so that millennium is prolly not on the shopping list, but golly, it looks comfy.

I went to give the 3 new crabapples a little water yesterday afternoon, grasshoppers have been working them over, they’re somewhat stressed I’m sure. Lo and behold, a 2” rain came out of nowhere last night and gave everything a good soaking. I plan to get brassicas in the ground this week in the...

Know a lot of Gillmans. I believe there are two pretty big families not related. Was the older boy Colton?

Who??

The cat might be the most valuable of the whole bunch! Mouse catchers are pretty important with a house on the prairie!

We have 3 growing behind the house I grew from seed, but I didn’t know about rootmakers back then, so I just grew them way too long in 1 gallon pots. They were root bound like crazy, and I didn’t know anything about releasing the roots back then when planting. They’ve survived and are around 16’...

I’m afraid I lost one of the bigger chestnuts and another is looking pretty rough as well. The persimmons are much tougher for sure.
