    I would keep it going as long as it is still producing. Then try to keep it covered to avoid frost and animals from destroying it in the winter.

    I don't know the answer to that question - but I do want to say that if you have to leave a tree stump, make sure you leave it big enough for someone to see it. Nothing like tripping over a stump...

    Krispy Kreme Donuts

    I grew up with only Dunkin' Donuts, but since moving to the south have converted to the melt-in-your-mouth delight of the Krispy Kreme donut. Does anyone know when the new fall flavors will be...

    It seems like we always had treehouses when I was growing up. Me and my neighbors all did. We actually took turns spending the night in each other's treehouses. I don't recall animals ever being a...

    I have never been, but wanted to go, just to check it out. I am just afraid that it is not a place for a newbie - there are a lot of cutthroat people out there who do it for a living.

    I would love to know what kind of crafts you are making with barn wood. Are you talking sheds or smaller projects? Is this a good wood to carve?

    Small Towns?

    I still love watching reruns of the Andy Griffith Show on TVLand. Believe it or not, living here in the south, I actually know of some towns that are still that small! I know one that actually only...

    Are you kidding me? In this day and age, there is still corporal punishment in school? When a parent can be reported for "disciplining" their child? That's just ridiculous? How do they justify...
