Having some actual useful skills outside the tech arena would be cool - and that's one of the reasons I'm doing more work on my bike myself and want to get into things like gardening and even canning like you.

Same with bike maintenance, lawn care and home maintenance. I am contemplating sewing and knitting next... <br /><br />What you are talking about is thinking, learning and eventually fending for yourself - and creating. That's worth more than the money it costs to do it. It's what pulled us from the primordial ooze and made us human.Snak Shakhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04096046603568003654noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32708898.post-6091765805433622152009-09-01T23:14:37.413-05:002009-09-01T23:14:37.413-05:00Beany:

Some folks are spectators, some get in the game.<br /><br />If we eventually get enough tomatoes to can, we will be doing the same thing but it could be this is the year for learning how to set up the square foot garden and make some mistakes. Unlike your canning experience, when you forget the lemon juice in your first garden experience, you don't get to start over in the same year. Next year, however, we will have a bang up garden and be grateful for what we learned this year.WheelDancerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15219805760534549996noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32708898.post-49486670298696845302009-09-01T20:05:47.966-05:002009-09-01T20:05:47.966-05:00Very well said!Very well said!Doughttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09090802854306112252noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32708898.post-3755182872624344302009-09-01T12:15:40.668-05:002009-09-01T12:15:40.668-05:00I loved this post.
