Another car thread!!!! That's what dragged me out of the woodwork....er, uh actually dragged me out of the world of blogging. Cars are currently quite boring. Pontiac decided to bring back the iconic GTO. I'm not sure what's going on under the hood but the body style would put you to sleep. Seriously I think they're afraid to take a risk with design. Give me a classic car any day, even though some of them handle and ride like tanks I still love them. Andie, on the other thread you mentioned "the Bear". My Bear was a 1973 Olds 98. The kids could play tennis in the back seat and the trunk could hold an entire greenhouse full of plant material. It was 15 feet long and you had to pack a lunch to walk from the engine to the trunk. Think about some of the iconic cars of the past. There were the beautiful Mercedes that I call the Diplomat car. They were the ones that you'd see heads of state riding around town during official visits. They were ebony black with those double headlights. Beautiful. My personal favorite from my long line of vehicles was my 1970 Chevelle SS396. I bust into tears if I see one driving down the road. It would be impossible for me to recapture that car because the prices are in the stratosphere. Another favorite of mine was my 1970 Karmann Ghia. I'm currently trolling the Ghia sites looking for one because they're quite affordable. My dream would be a Bahama Blue Ghia with a white interior. Think Grace Kelley driving along the roads of Monaco, the car has that look to it. Since it was made by Porsche it had that low styling. Here is a link that might be useful:

Yes, Felix, they are beautiful! These are my favorite fruits: apples and persimmons. They are getting yellow on one side. We are in fierce competition for them with a pair of woodpeckers, they are checking fruits for ripeness already. Yesterday I removed all dead leaves and webs and checked leaves for eggs - found five with hundreds of eggs on each! Burned them on the grill. I think it's the best way to fight them. Couple of fruits fell down from infected branches but I'll fight hard for the rest! And you know, I've got help! Yesterday a wasp came and took off with a worm! I red info. about fall webwarms, they have natural predators - a wasp who lay eggs into them. But why this one flew away with it I don't know. Today my helper is back again and I took a picture of it. Maria.

Monterey Garden Insect Spray works great. Neem, insecticidal soaps, or other insecticides will not work. Montery has a special compound (spinosad) that controls rose slugs. No other spray I know of has spinosad. I suffered from rose slugs last year and as soon as I found out about this spray and starting using it, the rose slug problem got under control and disappeared completely.
