Aerial Spraying for Gypsy Moth
http://agtheory.blogspot.com/ 2008/ 05/ aerial-spraying-for-gypsy-moth.htmlThis morning I saw a helicopter flying low over the site of Penn State’s new Arboretum.

No need to look high in the tree tops here in Northwest Indiana at Songbird Prairie B&B.

http://www.kindagreywolfsworld.com/ ?p=37Seems the neighbors are jealous of my plants. So they cut a Pepsi bottle lengthwise and stuck some carrot tops in it so they can have some plants to. Still it is not as good as mine but they are trying. It is very important when you start with seeds is to keep them in a comfortable environment.
