"We are here most of the time, but it is best to call before you come. Would prefer to send the details privately. I guess you have to be my friend first. As for the major cross streets, we're near 99th Ave and Southern.

"Anthea, I have yet to stop by see your progress in Sun City. While visiting a client last year, I think I passed your place but not sure if I'd ever locate you again.
I'f you'd like to split a truck load of manure, I could help load and unload; four…"

"So glad to stumble back into this string and discover your recent post. I would be interested in getting some manure if I'm able to borrow a truck. What would suit you?

"The difference between Cow manure and horse manure is the digestive system of the animals, more than the selection of what they eat. Feed a horse and cow the same hay, and there will be less seeds in the cow manure because they digest the seeds…"

"Hi Melissa - sorry for the delay, I just found your message. Thank you for your warm response to the cob walls! I wish the HOA felt the same! I'd be happy to hold another "tour" day - or you might prefer to do some hands-on work? Peg was interested…"

sorry, no, i'm not planning on going to that one. perhaps if you post on the event that you're in need of a ride, someone else may be able to help. it looks like a good tour but i've been real busy lately so i'm just going to focus my energies around here for a while. spent most of today and some of yesterday working on the garden. i can feel autumn in the air finally =) how is your wall coming?
and yes, i do think there should be lots of life in the compost. i just think maybe next time that i'll be a little more cautious about throwing weeds(actually weed seeds) into the mix. i've always felt that weeds were just underappreciated plants, and i'd love the extra life in the garden, BUT, i think i better concentrate more on increasing the number of intended plants first, and then if i get a few volunteer weeds, they can have a nice home in my garden. i don't like to kill anything that's got such a will to live.
i do think it's really exciting , looking at my compost and witnessing the changes as it turns to dirt. i've gotten a few mushrooms growing in it, though right now, it doesn't seem to be doing much. it's pretty neat watching the cycles of life,
