Hi Renoliz,
I would like for you to inform the guys at EX-Christian that I have been blocked and they did not have the decency to inform anyone, for I cannot reply even if I want to.
Be Blessed,
The Redeemer Lives!
No can do, Redeemer. I have no pull at exC. Besides, you were being obnoxious.
Peace and reason to you and try to be nice on my teensey weensy, boring little personal blog, okay?
I live on a sea of sand and alkali patches, in a barren desert, at the far end of a small sprawling community in Northern Nevada. Desolate, wind swept country. This is my hard won slice of paradise. Against all odds, I cultivate trees, flowers, vegetables, peace and contentment. This is my garden in the sun.

Bruce comments again:)
When all the kids were young we had a much larger now. We now have 2 garden patches12 by 25 and 10 by 12. One is fenced due to wildlife problems .we gave up on corn due to coons cleaning us out 4 years in a row. Last week turned back light on and found 4 coons eating fat drippings off the grill. We have gardened for almost 30 years. Love doing it.

He. like myself, has given up on Christianity and, in the end, has decided there is no evidence for god[s]. We call that being an atheist. Don't worry, it isn't as scary as it sounds. Most of us are pretty nice people.
Gardening is certainly my passion although I picked a pretty crappy place to garden in. Still, I am doing a pretty good job of it, if I do say so myself. Sounds like you made the right move on the corn, Bruce. In your area I bet you can buy it fresh and local. In my area, you can't hardly buy anything that is fresh and local. I so enjoy real food straight from my garden.
We have no deer or raccoons. We live a couple of miles from the Carson river. There isn't much wildlife around here. We do have packs of coyotes and we know there is an very occasional mountain lion.
Our biggest problems are gophers. Hubby is trapping one in the veggie garden right now. We have gotten about 10 of them from the five acres this year. Bunnies are a small problem. We fenced the whole five acres with 2x4 inch woven wire and that has kept out most of the jack rabbits and cotton tails. The dogs probably put a good fright into any that do get in. The cat seems to have gotten 3 or 4 rabbits this year. He drags them into the garage through his cat door. I'm impressed while at the same time kind of grossed out.
Mice, kangaroo rats and kangaroo mice seem a bit much this year. We had to put traps in two of the sheds. Never had to do that before.
We rarely see a snake and if we do it is a bull snake. I call them gopher snakes. Not poisonous. It is possible that a rattler could be in the yard but we have yet to see one around here. Don't put your hand under anything or into the shrubs without looking first is always a good idea this time of year.
My nemesis are the Antelope Ground Squirrels. They look sort of like chipmunks. They love anything with seeds. Tomatoes, cantaloupes, cherries are all fair game. I have taken to trapping them to keep the numbers down. Looks like the cat is outdoing me. He has brought me 4 or 5 of them and I have caught about 3.
Whenever I want to complain about the weather I try to be grateful that I am not dealing with ticks, chiggers, deer and raccoons. Thanks for reminding me, Bruce.

Somebody named Morrison commented. I don't really get many comments and I can't seem to reply to them directly.
"You're only an hour away from those stores?
You ain't isolated.
By the way, I see you are reading Nomad...you do realize how many lies she has told about her origins don't you?"
By the way, it is actually over an hour but I didn't know I was going to have to deal with a critic.
I don't think I said I was isolated. Just that it takes a long time to go shopping and a lot of driving. So, if I want to go shopping I have to plan to go to quite a few places. Sometimes it is a bit exhausting. I don't really want to be isolated just insulated from having the neighbors too close by. Also, it is kind of isolating living out here. I have limited choices in friends and a couple of neighbors. Unlike when I lived in larger towns and cities.
I certainly don't want this little teensey weensey blog to turn contentious. I don't know you, Morrison, but if you have something specific you want to point to regarding the author in question then do post a link and I will be happy to read it. However, it would seem that her message that women are being abused by religion is quite believable to me. That is not a lie. That is true. Women are half the sky and every bit equal in importance as men in this world.
It is easy to do name calling and difficult to try to see the message that is presented. So, just saying LIar, liar, liar does not create a dialogue. Who in this lifetime hasn't told a lie or two, Aayan seems to have admitted that she lied on her application for asylum to Holland. Just like thousands of others in her shoes.
