I was just at the garden center and they were selling "Echibeckia" which I assume is the hybrid you're talking about. They looked almost like small sunflowers.

Good for you, dado, for protecting...

When I was an account manager traveling a lot for research, I assigned project manager to go with me to Stockholm. When we booked rooms at a really nice hotel there, she was appalled that she would...

I like the sleigh...

DH had a burger, but I made gazpacho using one of the cucumbers from my bumper crop as well as tomatoes grown last year and frozen. It was a good recipe! Supposedly close to the Spanish style.

First of all, I have to correct my spelling error--her name is Olivia Colman, not Coleman.

Yes, I did see The Lost Daughter, and she was so great in it! Her face is so malleable and expressive...

Beautiful picture! What a way to spend your summer vacation!

Very cool!! Post pictures once you have the weeds under control. You've lived I NM for many years now--is this very unusual?

Why did you go panel instead of tile if you're not crazy about it?

OMG! That is great! Congratulations, Tradd!

I was watching that movie 13 Lives about the monsoon that trapped the soccer kids in the cave. It looks like such a scary environment... yet enchanting...

I do love internet rabbit holes.

Well, I do my best to stick to natives.. I'll say that. I have native asters, milkweed, bluestem grasses, rudbeckia, echinacea. My one digression is balloon flower--I have a small patch of that.

When it comes to geopolitics with plants, I'm an isolationist. I stick with native plants, which means I don't have to make tough decisions about accepting/reecting plants of Chinese or Russian...

Yes, you sound like you have what we had last year. There was a nest in the compost and a nest in dead wood (see picture). I only got stung twice when I disrupted the compost pile, but the "Bee...

How does that translate to mpg? How does that compare to price of gas? My hybrid gets 50mpg, and I fill my car up once a month ($30) or sometimes twice. What are your costs per mile?

There are a lot of manufactured home communities up here in Vermont. Our neighbor's brother raised his family in one and he's probably lived in it for about 30 years. I never heard him complain about...

Same has happened to me!! One of my best friends my freshman year at college--we kept in touch for a few years and then lost touch. She entered the convent at one point but gave it up because she...

I'm a Crown fan. I also blew through all the seasons. I agree with iris lilies' take on Claire Foy and Gillian Anderson, and the actress who played Margaret. My girl crush is on Olivia Coleman. I've...

Like Jeppy, I keep a budget and I track my expenditures almost to the penny, so if I see something out of whack, I either cut back on something else, or the next month try to even it out. I am fine...

I see Thomas Friedman, who I respect, is calling Pelosi's trip "reckless and irresponsible" and that nothing good could come of it.

Yes, I just finished it! Very interesting insights. Thanks for the recommendation!

In that list I posted of affordable towns in NH, Keene is in the county you're targeting. Is that too far northwest for you? Also, how far are you willing to travel for shopping, etc. I am in a...
