It was a very busy day in Oxdrift. These 2 photos capture all of the plants that have migrated to the house for the long cold Arctic winter . All of the coleus are cuttings started in September. About 70% of the succulents are cuttings as well but some of the larger ones are actually entire plants dug up and transplanted to wintering pots. This morning I fired up the greenhouse and lugged them all out there for a soil soak with Intercept, let it drip through and then lugged them back to the house. It is a job but sure takes care of all the pests that want to suck them dry all winter . Now I should be ensured a healthy start for 2020. Yahoo!
Haven\'t been on here much as I wear many hat\'s at this time of the year. This fall I spent a lot of time out moose hunting with my son in law and granddaughter Kira.I managed to get a bull moose tag for the archery season for which I was basically the spectator/tag holder, Steve the guide and with Kira the intended shooter. That season is now over and no moose in the freezer but we had some very heart pounding experiences that most people would never have the opportunity to experience in a lifetime and Kira is just turning 13. Steve is very talented at communicating with and attracting moose so we had some very up close and personal encounters
Yes Sherri, I did find time to post about 15 photos in the contest while burning the midnight oils. Thanks for thinking of me. Also enjoyed a quick scan through all the photos everyone has been posting.
