Autumn is a great time to garden,
to plan your leafing trip, to begin planning 'a yard full of beautiful
spring-flowering bulbs' including garlic, to bird-watch and even get ready
for Thanksgiving and pumpkin pie (the Pumpkin Nook is a necessary click!).
There's a wealth of information found on the Gardener's
Network on just about any subject dealing with gardening. Additionally,
the 'Gardening Notes' provide interesting tidbits � did you know that if
deer are invading your garden, a trip to the barbershop for discarded human
hair will ward them off! With a resource like this one, you have
no excuse for not developing your green thumb!

us to review in Site of the Day (or to make a suggestion for a site topic),

LIFE

You must learn
to drink the cup of life as it comes...without stirring it up from the
bottom. That's where the bitter dregs are.
Agnes Sligh
Turnbull (1888-1982)

You have to
treat everything with irony, especially the things you hold dear. There's
more of a chance then that they'll survive. That is perhaps one of the
greatest secrets of our life.
Dmitri Shostakovich
(1906-1975)
Composer

Our veterinarian
gave us the following instructions for our cat, Friday, who was scheduled
for surgery: "Don't give Friday any food after 8 p.m. on Wednesday. Bring
Friday in first thing Thursday morning. You can pick him up Thursday evening.
But if you want, Friday can also stay until Friday."
--Contributed to "Life in These United
States" by Mary Malloy
