Comments (16)When you go up to the airline's counter, they will weigh your checked luggage. If it's over 50 lb, you'll have to remove some things or pay extra. They give you your boarding pass (if you haven't printed it out at home) and baggage claim tickets, and put airport tags on your checked bags. You take your luggage over to the TSA screening area, and you don't see it again. It cannot be locked! Don't put anything valuable in your checked bag, like a camera or jewelry. Go thru security line, taking off your coat and shoes as you stand in line if possible. Keep your boarding pass and driver's license in your hand. Put your shoes, coat, and purse in a tray and put it on the conveyor belt. Put your large carry-on on the conveyor belt. Walk thru the x-ray arch, then pick up your stuff off the belt and put on your shoes (some airports have benches to sit on). Stop on the way to your gate to buy a bottle of water and any food you might want. (Most airlines offer free water, soda, and coffee, but you'll probably have to pay for any food other than a tiny bag of peanuts or pretzels. Airport food is better than airplane food.) Use the restroom just before you get on the plane, as you may sit on the plane for hours before you actually take off and you won't be able to leave your seat. Once you get through security you can put your license away. They just need your boarding pass. When you get on the plane, if you think you'll want a pillow or blanket, grab one from a seat as you walk by. There may not be one on your seat. Many airlines have cut way back on pillows. You will have to turn your cell phone off when the plane leaves the gate. You can turn it on as soon as you land, before you get off the plane. To change planes, look for a monitor as soon as you get off the plane. Make sure it says "departures" at the top and find your departure gate (look for the city you're flying to). You shouldn't have to go through security again, unless you leave the terminal, like to go outside to smoke. If you have a lot of time between flights, get a drink or food or do some shopping. If you have more than an hour or so, double check your departure gate, as they often change. You don't want to be sitting at the wrong gate. Make sure you keep medications in your carry-on, not your checked bag....See MoreI haven't posted in awhile, so this is a test.
Comments (12)Oh my goodness -- what a gorgeous vine! It's so good to see you posting again. Here's how you can post pictures from Photobucket: Copy the direct link from Photobucket Click on the photo icon that's below At the bottom of the box that comes up you will see a little box labeled 'file name' Paste the direct link from Photobucket into the box using 'control v' on your keyboard.

I hope you'll tell us more about your garden plans in this strange state of alternating drought and rain....See MoreHaven't grown beets or leeks in awhile. Planting?
Comments (21)nancyjwb, here in Michigan we have short, hot, humid summers. It topped 90 several days last year, but I grow leeks every year. I put the starts in the garden the end of May and as I weed them, I pull the dirt up around the plants. They are very cold tolerant, so they are one of the last things I take out of the garden. I usually plant a 50 foot row and then slice and dehydrate them, plus can potato leek soup. They never bolt or go to seed and they are always at least an inch in diameter. They don't need any more or less care than anything else in the garden, so they get weeded and watered right along with everything else. My garden has grown to over an acre, so I don't "baby" anything very much, except heirloom tomatoes. Radishes are grown to mark the rows of slow growing plants like carrots, so I can see where the row is until the tiny plants get bigger. By the time the radishes are big enough to use, the row is well established. Annie...See More
