POTD: This years top winner is: Miz Emely MacKenzie
Comments (13)That is a beauty Lucy. My favorites all have 2 or more colors. I'm looking for a single or a double that will show yellow, peach/orange and pink all at the same time on the tree. Miss Emily Mackenzie (sp?) caught my eye just a couple of days ago. Day Dreams and Creamsickle and Fandango (only white and peachy pink but breathtaking - I'm still checking this one out from MonikaGottchaulks.com 's website - the one in the top main picture on the left). Although Day Dreams looks like Monika which I've just acquired and hope to have for next summer - I'm praying a lot. I favor brugs with the long tendrils to, but the colors make Emily absolutely the best single I have seen and of coarse I know that she's a big flower. How's does she smell at night? Is she a prolific bloomer? - I suppose you'll need time to find that out for yourself. Byrd aka Choclate Brug, Your beauty Doosie looks like Fandango, the flowers look like fluffy chiffon - I love that look. Fandango has a white upper flower and the second flower has a different color (similiar to yours), otherwise they look the same. Those layered cuttings you're making are the gold cutting of that plant. I'm not so sure I'd dig in that deep for anybody but God itself - of coarse that's probably, in a way, what you're doing. But it seams to me a little higher up would of been just as good. Very fortunate friends. Sorry if I put a damper on your good will as it looks a little late to change your mind but she'll be fine for next year and you're friends aught to know just how much you're giving them. I hope you tell them what I said. ;) Respectfully - Sandy...See MoreDid you ever have a child walk in on you at the wrong time?
Comments (10)Phyllis...I don't think so...if you check their my page they have been signed up since 2007. I went over to ask at Meeting House and saw that they had already checked to see who it was. Just somebody beating Sandy to the punch. My answer to the question is NO....we had a lock on our door. But we had them knocking....See MoreHave you ever seen a marble rangehood?
Comments (86)You probably don’t need a steel frame. It should only be required if there is a concern about the load on the joist, so maybe if the hood sets under a bathtub or something. Quartzite is just not that heavy, it only seems heavy because it is rather thin. 2cm thick quartzite is about 12 lbs per square foot, which is really nothing significant. A wall cabinet with a typical load of plates and bowls will easily be more than that much and these days that is 1/2” plywood held to the wall with two to four #10 cabinet screws. A 36” stone hood in a room with 9’ ceilings is going to be about 312 lbs of stone… The shear rating of one 3/8” bolt is more than double that and I assure you, more than one will be used. The only real complication is the attachment of the frame to the joists or studs and that is going to require bolts in shear....See MoreHave you ever seen something that you couldn't...
Comments (10)I think all ag products grown in California are irrigated so while water supplies from runoff and the need for aquifer recharging for ground water levels are affected by a particular year's snow and rainfall, product production shouldn't be as long as there's available water deliveries to the growing sites. Irrigated orchards may very well have alternating good and bad years if that's the normal cycle of the tree type, I wouldn't know. Orchards being long term investments, I suspect they get priority for water so that the trees don't die. Most row crops are annuals and don't need to be planted in any particular year if water supplies for the grower or field are limited. If you've had the otherwise monotonous experience of driving along Hwy 5, you've probably seen the signs visible at the south end of the San Joaquin Valley, near Grapevine - Food Grows Where Water Flows. On your comment, you might be amused to learn that using "the" in front of a highway number is much more common in SoCal than in NorCal, where the number can be used without a "the". I'm a SoCal native but moved north before the "the" came into vogue. I know LA freeways by name, not by numbers. It's easier for me, especially with instances of freeways with segments with different numbers. Or, the reverse, sections of the same Hwy number that are used for freeways of different names. Is "The 5" the San Diego Fwy, the Santa Ana Fwy, or the Golden State Fwy in SoCal? Of course you know the answer - it's all three! But not all of the San Diego Fwy is The 5, because part of it is The 405....See Moreplllog
