I’m the last house on a dead end lane so “Free” signs don’t work here like they do on your road. Dang, I was the last to see your sign-I even propped it up after I took your fencing-never dawned on me to steal it. I like green and purple-your next free sign should be green and purple…

I heard a story once about a season ticket holder for the New Orleans Saints who, during a particularly bad season, left his remaining season tickets on the dashboard of his car with the window rolled down at a busy mall parking lot just hoping someone would take them. When he got back to his car someone had left additional tickets with his. Some days you just can’t win. Perhaps you have stumbled across a new business opportunity making custom “free” signs?

Tom..they took your free sign??? I am howling here! That is too funny, well, honestly… the hardened bag of cement…really?? Given my very over active imagination, plus the fact that I do revel in true/crime/murder mysteries…I gotta wonder?? Yikes…but then again, if Vashon Island is home to your gentle soul, I would have to say no worries. Once again you have put a smile on my face and given me a hearty chuckle! Bless your heart!

What on earth do they use a bag of hardened cement for–a door stop? How funny.
And I confess-I’d steal that sign………..

My daughter lives in a beautiful suburb of DesMoines and once a year they have a day (forget what it’s called) where everyone can put WHATEVER beside the curb for free pick-up at the end of the day (not usually free). During said day, anyone and everyone are invited to drive by and pick up whatever suits your fancy. I was there last year on this day. It was like shopping curbside. Some of the neatest finds – although, of course, my daughter was in the process of cleaning out and didn’t want anything…and I couldn’t fly back with it. Rather a neat idea to be sure. I like your FREE sign…obviously someone else did too!

They took your sign??? I suppose it was more fetching than the seized up bag of cement, but really. Here in upstate NY, they just plop a pile o’ stuff at the end of the drive and leave it there – rain or shine.

Happy Birthday, Tom! Wasn’t today absolutely beautiful? Two out of three hives have survived the winter – Minerva AND Demeter were out flying today and actually collecting pollen. You really have to take up beekeeping!

Comment on Tom’s Top Ten Reasons to Grow Raspberries by Joyce

Thanks for the tip on the raspberries. I used to fancy myself as someone who could grow anything attributed to my grandmother’s green thumb+the whole rest of herself. But, as time revealed, my gardening skills required more of my time than I could manage while caring for a very active 2 year old grandson with special needs.
Your tip on raspberries being easy to propagate was like winning the lotto! Tomorrow, Maverick (my grandson and I) are on an adventure to look for raspberry seedlings or seeds. Thank you and God Bless YOU!
