That looks great!
What will you be planting?

Well, my dearly beloved 2002 Grand Cherokee that I have owned for the past 8 years, while still beautiful, is up to 194,000 miles and is getting tired and has been deemed not worth putting the money she needs into her.
So I will be looking for her replacement soon. What that will be, I do not know at this time. But it will be another Jeep. [Reply]

Our farm also has 13 varieties of apple and 7 varieties of pears... along with 3 kinds of grapes and a hand full of rasperry bushes.
Please share some pictures in the gardening thread as you go. That is so awesome!
I'm getting tons of cherry tomatoes here right now. I plan to shade cloth my raised bed in Phoenix for the first time and see if I can keep them producing through our hot as hell summers. [Reply]

It was a 1950 house that was almost all original. So new plumbing, electrical. Replaced some flooring, redid the bathroom tiles, refinished the hardwoods and the metal kitchen cabinets.
Month and a half later... still not moved in. Yay! :-) [Reply]

We all have the ability to change our lives for the better.
Update, it was a pain in the ass but I finally bought my plane ticket home. Flying out of Beijing on July 13th. It will be my first time setting foot on American soil since January 2020. [Reply]
