Video: Aiden crying
Short video from last night when they were poking Aiden and made him cry a little.

Here are the pictures I have of the new Gallimore! We are very proud and happy to have him out in the open.
We are just one disaster away from martial law
When I talk to people about the need for Oath Keepers and tell them about US law enforcement agents going door to door collecting guns from citizens in New Orleans, they either aren’t aware of that fact, don’t believe me, or don’t understand why that is a big deal.
There is no reason for martial law in the USA, ever. Guns should not be taken from citizens who aren’t criminals. Ever. US citizens who are not breaking the law should not be detained. All of these things should scare us. No American should tolerate these acts. The fact that the actually already happened should send alarms off in the minds of those who understand why our Constitution is so important and significant.
Is your time worth $72 per hour?
I did the math behind making your own jam and now I think making your own jam is one of the best uses of your time possible. It is easy too! As an added bonus, you know exactly what ingredients are going into that jar: there are only 4 ingredients. I wrote more about it on the North Texas Vegetable Gardeners post “The Economics of Making Your Own”.
My ‘project’ is well underway now!
Today was a very big day for me. The first class of the DFW Citizen Gardener program occurred today, and it was a great success. We had 29 students go through, and I could tell there were many ‘ah-ha’ moments for people. I think many were inspired to go home and start growing some of their own food.
I decided this spring to do some useful action to help solve some of the problems I complain about all the time. I am bringing the Citizen Gardener program started in Austin to the DFW metroplex. The program is designed to give every-day people who don’t have much time or money the knowledge, skills, and encouragement to grow some of their own food. It also aims to build communities, help others, and be sustainable. Many of the students from today will go on to volunteer and teach future classes. I’ll schedule classes in the local planting season, and hope to have many available in the spring time. If anyone is interested in learning more about the program, please visit the main Citizen Gardener DFW page, the Citizen Gardener board on the North Texas Vegetable Gardeners forum, or contact me directly!
