Hope you all feel better soon. How many times have I heard or said "run for it". I like to have a hood on my jacket and use the hood instead of an umbrella.

I keep buying the cheap $5.00 ones from the pharmacy....sure enough they keep breaking. Now on the property in the summer tropical rains we have found the huge golf umbrellas are best from the hardware shop..not pretty like yours though.
get well

Hope everyone recovers quickly! I use an umbrella most of the time, but have done my share of run for it!
Happy Thanksgiving!

I bought an umbrella in Portland, Oregon, when we lived there for a while. It is huge, black, beautiful wooden handle. I never ever use it. I have a small leopard print umbrella from the Monaco Hotel, I use all the time. I actually have a collection and rarely use them. But I like knowing I have them anyway :)
Feel better soon, very soon ! There is fun to be had ! besos, C

Hi Trina,
I adore your elegant antique umbrellas! I love using an umbrella and often try to coordinate it with my outfit :) I know, it's kind of snobby...
Hope you all feel better and have an amazing Thanksgiving Day!

I love the handles on your umbrellas, very pretty! Yes, we use umbrellas here. We tend to have more periods of heavy rain rather than lots of days of light, misty rain. I keep umbrellas by the side door, in my car, in my office at work ... I'm well prepared.
Hope you're all feeling better soon so you can enjoy your new camera. What kind did you get?

Hi Trina,
So happy you got your new camera. I've always loved your photos. Will be exciting to see the photos of your guest house renovated. So much fun.
Hope your feeling better soon. Mucinex and Alka Seltzer cold are great when you don't want to feel excited or lethargic. They don't make your heart racy or anything and they help with congestion or runny or stuffy and throat aches, etc. When you have little kids you can't take strong meds that are gonna make you slow down. I know, been there.
Feel better

Hi, Trina...hope you feel much better soon! Having lived in the Pacific NW for over five years, I definitely remember that mindset of "run for it"! Now that I'm in the Midwest, I do see a few more umbrellas. Love your halltree and antique umbrellas.

I used to be a "run for it" kind of girl, but in recent years have slowed down and carried the umbrella with me. Right now it is red and plaid and I enjoy carrying it.

Hi Steve and Claudia,
I bought the new version of my old Canon Rebel. There's been some improvements over the past five years so I'm looking forward to seeing the difference (better sensors mostly). It also has a built in video, which seems to be the norm these days, so it will be nice to be able to switch easily from photo to video.
Best, Trina

I live on the coast of Washington state... right up by the Canadian border and I too use the "run for it" mode. My umbrella never seems to come out of my trunk... but the hood on my North Face jacket gets TONS of use... year round, of course.

Oooh, maybe you can start posting some video of the little ones on your blog! That would be great. I've been wanting to experiment with video but I can't find the time to learn how to do it. Good luck with the new camera, hope you're pleased with it.

Sorry to hear you and your family are under the weather. Drink lots of fluids and honey is nice for a sore throat.
Me being born and raised in England umbrellas are part of our lifestyle. I live in Canada now and still LOVE to use my umbrella. I'll even go out with just for a walk around in the rain. Love the pitter patter sound it makes. The most colourful brolly is my favourite. Can't live without one. It's like part of my birth heritage.
Hope you all feel better soon. Hugs to everyone. What camera did you buy? I'm nosey. xxx

Hoping you and your family are feeling tip top soon!
Umbrellas are a design element in our home as well. They sit, like museum pieces, never getting use. Truthfully, i have no umbrella habit, because i grew up in sunny Southern AZ and relocated to the PNW in my adulthood. And i am always worried i will poke someone in the eye with those little metal tips.
My wool coat does just fine keeping me relatively dry on the days i care. ;)
Can't wait to see your guest cottage in CL!

I have one fabulous antique umbrella from my grandmother. It's a beautiful unique curvy canopy and a lovely ombre dye treatment. My main need right now is an umbrella stand to hold it and its less fashionable basic black brethren. Love your antique coat rack.

You know, when it rains here it seems like it is almost horizontal rain, so umbrellas don't seem to work very well. I think this is typical of desert towns where rain is a serious violent event that lasts about 20 minutes.
When I was living in Paris over a winter, I remember there was nice polite rain over night and every morning and I delighted in it, and in using my umbrella and trench coat. I bet England is like that, with nice proper rain.
What camera did you buy?! Not that it matters - I believe that people either can or can't take good photos, regardless of gear, and you definitely CAN!

So true! I don't own an umberella, though Mr. 24 continually thinks I need to purchase one.
Miss. Ginger and I get a bit soaked sometimes but I have a hood, and she has a sweater with a turtleneck that pulls up around her ears...it's perfect!
Love your antique umberella's... and Happy Thanksgiving to you and your sweet family...wishing you (and us) a lovely and dry day!!!

I'm in the NW corner of WA state, near the Canadian border too and I just run for it. People who are visiting our area find it very odd that no one uses an umbrella when it rains :)
- November 22, 2012 at 5:44 PM
Do hope you feel better soon. Being born and raised in England, umbrellas are part of life. I always have a few spare at home for others too.

Oh Yes I use an umbrella! Growing up in NYC running for it was not an option, especially when you walk everywhere. But New Yorkers like to buy the cheapo umbrellas the ones for 2 bucks and they turn inside out because of the darn winds, so using a pretty one we don't do since it'll be ruined. Plus I have curly hair and I can't let the rain ruin that....:)

3.83/5 rDev -1.8%
Transcribed from my notebook.
Appears slightly cloudy bronzed reddish-orange, one finger head that recedes to a slick on the surface of the brew, some mediocre lacing is left behind...
At the very moment you take your first sniff, you know that you are holding a very large hop bomb. At first I get heavy pineapple, grapefruit peel, cannabis, clove, pepper, than I get medium onion and garlic, layered on top of lighter quantities of the grassy / floral / earthy noble hop spectrums, as well as a sturdy amount of sweet malt scent. The very first part of the sip hits your tongue with citric peel / sweet malt that is actually somewhat balanced, but that brief moment of harmony rapidly gets annihilated by the beer remembering that it is a hop bomb, and hitting your tongue with tremendous amounts of onion-garlic Simcoe-styled spiciness. And the finish is positively raw with the combination of onions and pine resinous bitters with a fair amount of hot booziness leaving you somewhat dried out. The body is medium-heavy, but not syrupy at all, for which I am grateful.
There is really nothing at all subtle about this beer, and if you don't like Simcoe, you should stay away. If you do like your onions and garlic in your beer, than this hop-bomb is pretty damn fun to experience at least once, although the price is kind of absurdly high. One "hop bomb" per week of something like this is more than enough to satisfy the masochistic tastebuds in my mouth.... I personally prefer the Oracle for doing the same thing only with less onion character.

It was great to finally get to try this beer I was anticipating it for awhile.Poured a deep burgundy with a thinner slight off white head,big fruity esters in the nose like alcohol dipped dark fruit with an undelying but very noticable piney hop elemant.Aroma wise and flavor wise this is an hopped up American barley wine,flavors are of dark fruit and brown sugar up front finishing very piney.The alcohol to me was pretty well hidden and very decieving,in some ways reminded me of Great Divide Old Ruffian in its hop profile.A great brew Iam hoping that it will be on tap at Founders next month when in GR.

4.45/5 rDev +14.1%
Appearance This one poured a thick, heavy orange with a brownish tint to the liquid and sported a big, super-puffy off-white head.
Smell The deep, mature, sharp malts form a rich bouquet. The caramel especially is thick and heavy. The hops are extremely complex; I cant begin to describe them all so wont even try. The citrus is dominant and the pine is sharp but well-blended.
Taste The malts here sugar up at the taste. They very sweet and offer a nice balance to the gigantic hop profile.
Mouthfeel This medium to full-bodied triple IPA is very boozy. The bitterness is completely worked out of the mouthfeel.
Drinkability This was a tasty treat that should never, ever, be bottled in bombers!
Comments Thanks to the much-respected and highly-regarded BuckeyeNation for tossing this little hop bomb into my trading box. Good triple IPAs are hard to find, but this one certainly lived up to my expectations of this unofficial style.

Intense, Over the Top, Huge, West Coast like IPA. Im glad I tried it, but I wont repeat. At $4 plus a single, I cant justify buying this again when compared to similar, and much cheaper beers.
Appearance: Intimidating reddish orange body with plenty of carbonation and a thick beige head that immediately compacts to just a skim.
Aroma: American Barley Wine like. Citrus hops, peppery spice, pine, and vanilla over the faintest caramel.
Taste/MF: this is a sipper indeed but many great flavors are still prevalent: pine and grapefruit for sure but also mangoes, cherry jam, marmalade, juniper, tobacco, and more. Warmth comes in waves, tidal waves, but the carbonation keeps the booze from coming on to thick. Very nice.
Drinkability: One is enough for me.

Pours a copper-orange color with a small head that leaves minimal lacing. The first whiff hits with a load of caramel toasted malts, a touch of vanilla, and an abundance of alcohol. A touch of fruity flavors are hinted at, but not very noticeable. The alcohol gets stronger and stronger as the beer gets warmer, until eventually it's almost the only thing you notice, along with the malts. For a "triple IPA", it's weird how much the malts and alcohol overpower the actual hop smell. Hops are present, but not at all in the foreground.
The taste... well, I don't understand how so many people have given this beer a good review. I guess that's just the difference in tastes. But this beer was bleh. Hoppy and bitter, with overpowering malts, and extremely annoying alcoholic properties. Way too boozy. And not boozy in a "oak barrel aged bourbon" kind of way - boozy in a "this is difficult to drink" kind of way. It's as if the alcohol is there unnecessarily. It's unwarranted, unwanted, and uncalled for in this amount. I feel like Founder's was strictly going for the novelty of 12% ABV without much regard to the actual taste, which is a shame because most of their brews are amazing. This beer left a sharp bite on the back of the throat and the booze only got stronger and more arrogant as time went on. Super thick and left the mouth feeling sticky and coated. Pungent, heavily alcoholic aftertaste.
Yuck. I was very disappointed with this. Founder's puts out amazing stuff, but this just missed the mark. Instead of an incredibly complex, hoppy brew, I was sucking on a hodge-podge of malts, unwanted bitterness, and overpowering alcohol burn. I'll definitely be passing this one up next time.

3.7/5 rDev -5.1%
Pours a ruby red and copper with a thin, half-inch head that quickly dissipates. Whats left over clings to the glass and leaves a nice lacing - a trait I find in most all Founders beers.
Poking my nose into this one I get a lot of sweet hops - most apricot and apple as well as caramel malt. Fairly big and alcoholic in the nose. Funny, but the hop bitterness is just missing from this beer - especially given its reputation and high IBUs. Its sweet and cloying - not in a completely bad way, but not what you would expect. Definitely big on the sugary malts.
Alcoholic and somewhat astringent - not what I would classify as a IIPA or barleywine by any stretch. Definitely an interesting beer, but not one I will go out of my way for again.

4.1/5 rDev +5.1%
Reviewed from notes on 7-30-10.
A: The color is a brownish-amber with a gold tint. There is no head at all poured into my snifter; just a thin, hazy covering results. The carbonation bubbles dawdle slowly upward in perfect lines. The lacing of DD is pleasing to the eye, but nothing spectacular.
S: Big. Citrus, tropical fruit, and pine hop aromas blend fairly seamlessly with a ramped up and caramel-ly malt bill. I am impressed by how well the hops match the malts in a 12% beer. This might be the most bitter smelling beer that I have encountered to date.
T: The tropical fruit hop and malt combination is the initial flavor blast onto my palate. The caramel malt presence then sits sweetly and heavily on the broadside of my tongue, which is sucked away at the end of the sip by a puckering, resin-like bitter hop attack. The high a.b.v. is evident as the beer warms.
M: Very full and sweet for the first half of the sip, then a combination of heavy hops and alcohol dry the mouth and clean the sweetness of the malts off of my palate.
D: This is about as drinkable as a 12% "Triple IPA" can come. The alcohol is very evident in the smell and taste as the beer warms, but the balance between hops and malts is struck phenomenally well.

Pours cloudy amber with a small, white head.
Rich with malt and every form of hop note possible; catty, floral, pine resin with doughy malts and a belgiany raisin quality and an alcohol note, of course.
The hops definately represent with piney notes and a grassy finish. In between? Becomes more sweet as it warms up, with rich honeyish malt, caramel, and bread dough, finishing dry and warm but not hot at all.
This is an epic beer worth fearing just a little bit. It meets in between old ale, barleywine, and double ipa in a wonderful way. Let it warm up, delicious.

Review from BeerAdvocate Magazine March 07
The label reads "Triple IPA." Man, you've gotta love American brewers. When an idea has been done a few too many times, just make it bigger!
Hazy, tawny color. Thin on the head but the lace stays for a good while. Fresh, orange citric zest and soft piney resin aroma with a flare of alcohol and toasted malt. Intense palate of alcohol and hops right from the get go. Big oily bite of hop bitterness and a sting of spicy alcohol set the tone, followed by waves upon waves of hop bitterness with pungent citric rind flavors. Alcohol throws out some tropical fruit (mango and pineapple) and an assertive heat. Seems like the aftertaste lasts forever, with a hardcore bitter hop and the residuals of a spicy alcohol warmth.
This beer is insane. No, absolutely insane! Both the alcohol and hops dropped bombs on our palates, and it's going to be hard to recover from the shredding. As for a pairing: fight fire with fire! Aim and launch it at some really spicy food, preferably something with habanero peppers.

A: a clear sparkling amber that just screams hops!
S: a smooth hoppy aroma, however somewhat atypical of other IPAs ive tried since there is no noticeable citrus.
T: an initial hop sizzle that continues to coat the mouth well after its been swallowed while leaving lingering hints of pine.
MF/D: VERY smooth while leaving a warm tingle. certainly not as eye-opening as many DIPAs ive tried.

The Devil Dancer "Triple IPA" pours from the bottle a deep auburn, quite dark with a nice inch of creamy khaki head on top. The head lingers and is impressive considering the 13% abv. I can smell the hops already without getting near the glass. Big aromas of massively oily, resiny piney hops smack me across the face. A rich, deep sweet caramel malt is present as well. Citrus fruits, pineapple, some raisins, vanilla and wafts of alcohol esters as well. Much more reminiscent of a barleywine than a double IPA but enchanting all the same.
First sip brings a rich, deep caramel maltiness that carries with it a gargantuan helping of piney herbally citric hop oils. A big bitter bite is present but the sweet maltiness really helps keep it in check. Hints of raisins, dark fruits and butter rum midway through. Alcohol peeks out and makes its presence known. A massively tasty brew that is seriously a kick in the mouth. Lovely lingering hoppy bitterness. Yum.
Mouthfeel is dense and creamy...simply coats the palate and does not let up. Nice carbonation as well. Divine enjoyment. Obviously...this is not a brew to drink in mass quantities, however it goes down smooth and is incredibly tasty. My only complaint would be that this should really be labeled as a barleywine instead of a "triple ipa"...but hey...I guess that is not my call now is it! Thanks to kmpitz2 for the opportunity to try another tasty Founders treat.

Hrm...1.5 years since I've reviewed. And this is number 400 too! Probably 6 year old bottle.
Currently packing up my apartment to move cross country. Drinking down my cellar, probably should have reviewed some of my other old beers too.
I'm reviewing this more as a barleywine.
Slight hiss on the pop of the top. Murky brown with copper highlights. No head to speak of, just a tiny ring around the edge of the glass.
No hops to speak of really in the aroma. Has a brown sugar, crystal malt aroma throughout, hints of cherry, molassas.
Flavor is similar in many aspects, some bitterness remains to remind that this is American, even after 6 years. Some oxidation and sherry-like notes, but to be expected. Finishes with a touch of chocolate. Similar to some old ale's I've had with the sweetness. Alcohol flare, which is evident of fresh samples is gone, but some of the estery characteristics still remain to hint at its strength.
Fairly thick mouthfeel with low carbonation, syrupy to some extent which makes this a sipper. But definitely a good beer after a night of packing when its in the single digits outside.

text: If I were Chock, no way would I swap Lorello for Bates. Lorello always seemed not all that strong a skater to me, although he is a really nice looking guy. It is interesting that Bella does not say whether Ian is looking or not looking for a new partner-it sort of sounds like he wanted to switch coaches, and she wants to stay in DE? But for all I know he wants to quit skating and follow Phish around the country, or become a ski bum or go to MIT It just says he wants a different direction.

Barium is a milky fluid that absorbs x-rays. Barium is placed into the bowels through the rectum. This is called an enema. Barium coats the lining of the lower intestines. This makes that area easier to see on an x-ray.
Reasons for Test
You may have a barium enema to look for problems in your lower intestines. Some things your doctor may be looking for include:
- Abnormal growths (eg, polyps , cancers )
- Ulcers
- Diverticula (small pouches in the wall of the large intestine)
- Thickening of the lining of the large intestine
Possible Complications
Complications are rare. Some may have an allergic reaction to the barium or latex of the tube. Talk to your doctor about any allergies you may have.
What to Expect
Prior to Test
Tell your doctor if you are allergic to latex or barium.
Your intestines must be empty before this test. Your doctor may ask you to:
- Eat a clear liquid diet.
- Take laxatives.
- Use a warm water or over-the-counter enema.
- Do not eat or drink anything after midnight.
Description of Test
The doctor will gently insert a well-lubricated enema tube into your rectum. You may be given an injection to relax the rectum. Barium will be inserted through the tube. A small balloon at the end of the tube will be inflated. This balloon keeps the barium inside. The doctor will move you several times to make sure the barium coats the walls of the colon and rectum. A small amount of air will be inserted through the tube. The doctor will take a series of x-rays. After this, the enema tube will be removed.
After Test
After the test, you:
- Will be shown to the bathroom to pass the barium and may be given a laxative
- May feel mild-to-moderate abdominal cramping and may need to wait before driving home
- Can return to your regular diet unless your doctor tells you not to
- Can return to regular activities when you feel ready
- Should drink lots of fluids (barium can cause dehydration )
- May have white or gray stools for 2-3 days after the test (due to the barium)
Follow your doctor's instructions after the test.
How Long Will It Take?
About 1-2 hours
Will It Hurt?
You may feel discomfort when the enema tube is inserted. You may have bloating and severe cramping during the test. You may also feel as if you need to move your bowels.
It may take up to a few days to receive your test results. If the results are abnormal, your doctor will recommend:
- Follow-up testing
- Treatment options
Call Your Doctor
After you leave the hospital, call your doctor if any of the following occurs:
- Severe pain
- Inability to pass gas or have a bowel movement (two or more days after the exam)
- Abdominal bloating
- Bloody stools
If you think you have an emergency, call for medical help right away.

Oh, wait. Dogs actually DO bite people. I admit it.
And guns actually DO kill people.
And, yes, so do cars driven recklessly. But to drive recklessly or otherwise, you first have to earn a license, register the vehicle, carry liability insurance and face penalties and prison if you mess up. Police pull you over when you are doing nothing illegal in your perfectly legal car if they suspect you might be a threat to public safety. Yet, we still have a democracy.
But, to get a gun and a killer ammo clip, you walk into a store -- regardless how paranoid, evil, mentally ill, greedy, cruel or selfish you are -- put your money down and go off to inflict damage, or not.
It's not crazy to think that humans in this country should want to have a little more say in who gets a lethal weapon.
That's why word of gun appreciation day strikes this canine as unfortunate. No, wait, that's what a politician would say.
A dog would say gun appreciation day is twisted, crass, moronic, sad, infuriating.
But we're used to that where human behavior is concerned.

I am not one prone to fits of temper. But a few days ago I almost lost it. My outrage was prompted by witnessing the steady deterioration of another prisoner, resulting from particularly acute mental torture inflicted in Oregon's Disciplinary Segregation Units, which duplicate almost exactly conditions of torture practiced at Philadelphia's Eastern State Penitentiary that were outlawed by the U.S. Supreme Court in the 1800s.

We have lots of ideas for guest book alternatives. Transform a photo album into a guest book. Use double-sided tape to affix envelopes in assorted sizes and colors to the pages of a plain-paper photo album or scrapbook. Leave cards and a pens on a table for guests to write little messages. When they're done, they can tuck their cards inside the envelopes for the bride and groom to enjoy later and for years to come. Let guests' and well-wishes leave messages and wishes on paper tags. Anchor bare branches in a large, sturdy vessel filled with stones or gravel. Use wire to secure, available from craft stores. Set tags or hang cards in a dish. Place pencils alongside your tree with a sign asking guests to inscribe a card and to place on the tree. What a gorgeous idea! Instead of signing a traditional guest book, friends and family are invited to write their good wishes for the couple on cards. The notes are then placed in a large vase tied with a vintage ribbons. There's so many good ideas! MORE GUEST BOOK ALTERNATIVES & PRODUCTS COMING SOON!!

Mini-Guinea Singapore, Sep 2010, Day 7
Day 7:
The intermediates continued to work on Yankadi/Macru and spent the entire session on that.
The advanced group finished the solo for Djagbe, and Mamady then showed the dunduns for Djagba. It's Djagbe as it is played in the Kouroussa region, where they use a different dundun pattern.
Mamady also improvised to Djagbe. The improvisations he does once he has finished teaching a rhythm are a highlight of his camps for me. You get to sit right there and are treated to some of the best djembe playing anywhere in the world. You can find a recording of it in the Media section.
The advanced group then moved on to Soliwulen and finished all the basic parts for that. Mamady will teach his solo technique for Soliwulen today.
The pyramid added another rhythm slotted in between Kedu and Soliwulen: Tiriba. This is the first time I've seen Mamady use six rhythms instead of five for a pyramid.
The evening was spent at the "Blu Jaz Club", a restaurant and bar where we had three different groups perform: James's group from Hongkong, the Lila Drum Ensemble from Singapore, and Kelvins group. Most of the people in James's group and in LDE have not been playing all that long; despite that, they put together some awesome grooves with complex arrangements and interesting licks. That really rocked, and everybody had a great time. Kelvin's group is more accomplished and performed a number of Kelvin's compositions. One piece included drum kit in the mix. That was really fun to listen to. Great grooves, interesting arrangements, and a sterling demonstration of what can be done with a djembe/dundun ensemble outside the framework of traditional rhythms. I had a really good time listening! The evening finished off with an impromptu performance by some of the advanced and certified players. Great evening all round!
Another highlight: I just bought another djembe. (Yes, I know, I need to work on this problem...) It's number 2 of 40 "Mamady Keita Signature Series" djembes. (Kelvin bought number 1 ). It's a limited edition of drums that are hand-selected by Mamady, made by his favourite carver, and assembled by Jeremy. Each djembe has Mamady's signature in metal work on the foot, and the carving and shape are first rate. Mine is made of Djalla and sounds very nice I'll post a picture when I get home...

Sorry, but I can't resist. I just know that
Randal or some guy
on this forum will step in with a "comment" about your assessment of mares and geldings!
Wes asked me about the same man several weeks ago. My personal opinion is that he would make a claim, get shot down, make another claim, get shot down again, etc. Anything to make people think he was an expert...
There has been a longtime story (perpetuated by older members of the Mudd family back in the 1970-85 era) that Booth and Herold were spotted sitting on the steps of Brice's Chapel. I even had a lengthy dispute on the tale with a gentleman from that museum (no longer there) at a committee meeting with the Maryland Office of Tourism when Joan Chaconas and I were spearheading the Civil War Trails Initiative maps of the Booth Escape Route, which have been distributed widely over the past 5-6 years.
The road which led to Brice's Chapel is still there today. Bob Cook of this forum could hike to the site. He lives in the Bryantown Tavern, which is not that far from the Chapel's area.
I wouldn't comment on "gelding" 'cause that flat scares me!

I agree completely, Jerry, in your assessment. One thing to clarify, however, the pine thicket where Booth and Herold supposedly hid is not really in the swampy area.
There is little grass in a pine thicket and less for a horse to forage on than a swamp.
At that time of year it's 50/50 if there would be anything in bloom on which they could eat.

Correct again. I worked in the "Piney Woods" of East Texas (at a zoo) for 5 years, there is virtually zero grass because Pine trees rarely shed, (because of the warmer weather) hence hardly any sunlight reaches the ground.

Owens -(Adams) Statement
First things first. Figuing out This Way vs. That Way is critical to understanding what Owens is actually saying. I will STOP at each
point so the readers can decide for themselves.
Bryantown, md. April 28,1865, James Owens, farmhand, living with Mr. Austin L. Adams, who keeps a sort of tavern at Newport.Md.
states; STOP; ( location, Bryantown)
About two weeks ago, it was on a Thursday night, I was at home; it was pretty late, nearly supper time, when two men came there on horseback,(STOP; location, Newport) accompanied by a white boy, they got off their horses, and the boy took them and went away. One of the horses was a roan, or iron gray, and the other was a light bay with a small star on the forehead. One of these men was lame and carried a crutch; he wore a cloth slipper on his right foot, and carried the crutch under his right arm. He had on a close-bodied coat and wore a shawl; he was a stouter man than the other, who was a small man, I think that he had very light whiskers; he wore two coats and a soft, black, low-crowned hat with a narrow brim. They came to our place STOP; (location,Newport) and Mrs. Adams was there but Mr. Adams was away, he came home about half an hour after they came; I was not at the house when they came, but was at work, and left them talking with Mr. and Mrs. Adams. I heard the big man who was lame ask if there were any Yankees or soldiers around there; and Mr. Adams told him there had been none for two or three months. Mr. Adams place is at Newport, about six miles from the Potomac. That was all I heard them say. Mrs. Adams told them they could not stay there, but that she would give them something to eat. I suppose she was afraid to let them stay there because she was also afraid the soldiers would come and catch them. They stayed in the pines near the house until next evening which was Friday night and were at the house off and on at different times; they did not lodge at Mr. Adams but only got meals there. They left in the evening after dark, and went towards Popes Creek where Thomas Jones lives. A Mr. Bateman, I dont know his first name, who lives at the oak on the roadside about three miles from Newport, as you go through Allens Fresh towards Cobb Neck, told me that Jones put them across the Potomac. They crossed from Popes Creek a little above Mrs. {?} Watsons on the creek. This was a place where they had a boat hid. A man named Lomax used to fish there on the river, gilling shad. I dont know Lomaxs first name. Bateman told me that the men got over the Potomac all right and I judge that he and Jones rowed them across by his saying that they got over all right and by what folks said. The nearest point on the Virginia side opposite Popes Creek is Mathias point. Their horses came back This Way...
James Owens is being interviewed at Bryantown. Owens also states that Harbin & Bayden came to Newport from This Way about two weeks ago. This Way meaning Bryantown. What else could he have meant?
in charge of the boy, if I were trying to find them I would inquire of the people there who saw them, Mr. A_bey {Robey?} or Oliver who keeps a store there. I judge ______ saw these men but I did not hear him say anything about them. Tom Downey, who lives at Newport and Mr. Budd, who lives about two miles the other side of Newport, and some other folks that I dont know, I judge saw them. I heard gentlemen, that I dont know, ask Mrs. Adams where these men were going, and she said she said they were going to Popes Creek to cross the Potomac. I know Thomas Harbin and Joseph Bayden {sic}. They came to Mr. Adamsfrom this way (STOP; where did H& B come from? They came from This Way, meaning Bryantown) about two weeks ago. I think they came on Tuesday before I heard of the death of the President. They stayed there about a week, and went away on Saturday night. There was another man with them that I didnt know. I was fishing with gill nets and they came to me and I put them across a little run at Allens Fresh, on the other side from Mr. Adams, toward the Potomac. They didnt tell me where they were going. They gave me five dollars to put them across the run. I put them across on a Saturday. They were going towards the Banks of Dee. I heard Harbin say that he was going there. I have not seen them since, and do not know whether they have come back or not. James Owens.
The horses of John Wikes Booth and David Herold were" taken away by the boy" and somewhere between Newport and Bryantown they
disappeared. It should be noted that the only two roads leading from Newport to Bryantown are flanking the Zakiah Swamp for seveal miles
including the location where the Watson Relics were found.
I encourage everyone to use the maps thread. It can be a useful research tool.

Oh, and Jerry, they were'nt searching for a one-eyed horse. They were looking for a horse that probably would'nt blend very well with the rest of the herd. In particular, a bay mare, 14 and a half hands high with black legs, mane and tail, and a white star on the forehead. White spots also dotted one foot. Saddled or not, you would have to be a brave person to want to keep a horse like that. IMO, you would really have to ask yourself only one question; Is it worth risking your life over?
You're premise is that a bay mare would stand out like a sore thumb in the farms of southern Maryland. I know zilch about horses and the farms of Maryland at that time, so I can't confirm or refute your assertion.
As to the question "is it worth risking your life over?" let me say this: The Confederate sympathizers that operated on that line had been hardened by 4 years of war and were very savvy. They took many risks for very little reward. For example; George Atzerodt was certainly not a brave man but he was willing to transport the president over the river in a kidnapping scheme.
IMO the reward of a free horse for keeping her hidden from the Yankees and a little bootblack to cover her star and spots, could have been a risk worth taking.

Jerry, the one-eyed horse was Powell's mount. This particular animal was found in the Northern part of the city, taken by Lt. Toffey to the fort thereabouts and stabled with the rest of the army remounts. Whatever happened to this disreputable nag, I don't know, but he wasn't with Booth and Herold and nowhere near the swamp......
You're correct, my mistake.
My point was that the horses of Booth and Herold could have been hidden in plain sight on Maryland farms.
But then again you confirmed my assertion that "Soldiers weren't going to inspect every horse in Maryland to see if one had a blind eye."
Thank You.

The relevant article is in the Courier, Rick Smith, "What is Horse Faking," Surratt Courier, 33 (April 2008), 4-6. The ability of soldiers, north and south, to fake horse appearance is detailed in Crowninshield, History of the First Mass. Cavalry. which I believe is cited in Smith's article. I do not have the Crowninshield book pages before me at the moment. A. Conan Doyle's Sherlock Holmes detective encounters it in "Silver Blaze," for what it is worth. Smith also did a bang-up job in the "Owens' Statement" in Surratt Courier, 32 (October 20907), 3-6.

The observation regarding the dog which did not bark in the night was made by Holmes in the Silver Blaze.
You are right about Owens putting Harbin & Baden across the run, which he was given $5.00 to do, but in Come Retribution, the authors tell of James Owens being interrogated at the Old Capitol Prison by a Lt. S. P. Currier and, I would assume, under a great deal of "pressure," he admitted that he had lied to Col. Wells at Bryantown and that he had actually rowed Harbin & Baden across the Potomac and eventually landed them near Mathias Point. And, supposedly, Owens died in the Old Capitol while in federal custody. Bill Richter makes a good case in The Last Confederate Heroes as to Owens' fate. The yankees were fighting to "set men free," and I guess Owens was one of those "set free," at least in spirit.
I remember someone mentioning on the forum that Come Retribution makes a great door stop and maybe it does; but it has a value far exceeding that of a door stop. It is a treasure. I have two copies; one upstairs and one down, for ease of access.

It was I, who said it would make a good door stop. (sorta like a fruitcake)
The authors themselves admitted their theory was speculative.
Sorry, but I had a very hard time keeping up with it, and never could cross the finish line.

Prepping garden soil for next year

Prepping garden soil for next year
My garden is winding down big time now.
Soon I'll be taking down the fence and turning over the dirt for the winter.
Like I mentioned before, we removed the sod and 2 inches of dirt with it.
What should I put on the plot now?
Gypsum? Lime? Granular fertilizer? Manure?What kind?; ????
Should I put the 'stuff' on top and turn it over?...or turn it over and then put the 'stuff' on?
I will have a LOT of maple and oak leaves I could shred and put in there too...is that good or bad?
When is "to soon" to turn it over?
Turn it and leave it...or turn it and disk it for winter?
Re: Prepping garden soil for next year
First thing to do is a soil test on your plot to see what it really needs. Here's one source for the materials and services...
After you have the results, follow their recommendations for applying nutrients. If you have access to well rotted horse manure, that's perfect. Not only will it add nutrients, but it will add organic matter too. Mushroom soil works well, too. It is basically composted hay and manure. If you add leaves to the garden, that's good too. But, you will have to add additional lime as the oak leaves are very acidic. If using manure or leaves, I would apply them to the garden and then plow or till. Then disk in the spring to break up any compaction and smooth the surface for planting. Lime penetrates the soil very slowly, so apply it before you plow or till also.

Re: Prepping garden soil for next year
Your local university extension office will or should have garden soil sample kits. Might just be about the best money you ever spent.
When it drys up I will plow the garden, disk to level out the big lumps, then sow with a winter cover crop. This years soil test says all I need to do is add plant material to the soil. That is part of the purpose for the winter cover crop, green manure.
I have an excuse. CRS.

These guys went to the same school I did. One more thing. Don't plow to deep. The disc can only go so far down.

Re: Prepping garden soil for next year
Thanks for the tips guys!
As always, this place is awesome!
I looked around and didn't really find anything on soil testing.
I did find the OSU Extension website and have contacted them seeking info, so we'll see what kind of reply I get.
I had little success with the 1st year garden spot.
They only plants that seemed to grow like they should were the spagetti squash, and then the vine borers got to them.
Tomatoes were anemic and didn't produce. Out of 6 plants we didn't get but about a dozen. The cherry tomatoes (one plant) all fell of 1/2 ripe and the skins were thick and tough.
Pepper plants were a little better but still not many peppers.
Biggest beets are ALMOST as big as a golfball...but they were tasty!
Lettuce took FOREVER to grow and leaf out, and when it did the leaves were very thin?
All the broccoli did was go to flower/seed. We cut it back several times.
We did get some peas and greenbeans to eat fresh right out of the garden for dinner.
I hope we do better next year, plus if everything goes right I'll be using my loboy to plow n disk the garden next year!
Re: Prepping garden soil for next year
Check you local phone book for the location of the local university extension office. Since Canton is the county seat of Stark County, Ohio, an extension office will more than likely be located in or near Canton.
I have an excuse. CRS.
Re: Prepping garden soil for next year

Broccoli is the flower buds, of the plant. If it flowered, you waited too long, to pick it.
Sounds like a soil test is needed, as suggested earlier. Major nutrient deficiencies. Ed

Re: Prepping garden soil for next year
Add what you want to plow under,--then deep rip (12 to 18 inches, min. in all directions) then moldboard plow as deep as you can 12 to 16 inches if you have the equipment to do so, leave the ground rough and bare for the winter!this catches water and eliminates erosion!---VOLES will invade ANY cover and thrive during the winter months, (they breed year round!)---thats what I do every year and have nice mellow soil in the spring.---Hit it once in the spring with the big tiller and plant!
Re: Prepping garden soil for next year
Sonny I have to disagree with you on this one. Deep plowing is a waste of time and unless you have perfect soil down deep it is counterproductive. Annual plants have a shallow root system. If you look at a cross section of the soil you can see the different layers and how the root systems have reacted at various depths. A good soil test at different layers will show a marked difference. Once you get threw the loam and organic layers near the surface there is usually rock, sand and clay. Deep plowing will bring these layers to the surface where they will contribute little to the development of a healthy plant. Try this. Deep plow a couple of rows and rototiller a couple next to to the deep ones. Plant a cover crop of legumes in the tilled spot then come spring treat it all the same for planting. As for the voles they are very prolific as you know. However they will not go away just because they have little to eat during the winter. They help fortify the soil with the tunneling so plant a little extra for them. Just a note on soil test kits. They are not accurate for anything much beyond pH. I'll guaranty the second year garden will be better than the first with proper preparation and care. Please don't think I'm picking on Sonny. He is a very experienced grower ( and takes great pictures.) Hang in there and welcome.

Re: Prepping garden soil for next year
No matter how good the soil look and how much fertilizer you put on. The plants won't grow if the PH is wrong for what you are growing. Because if the PH is off the plants can't adsorb the nutrients from the soil. Last year I put in a feed plot for my dad and it barley grew. This year I plowed the whole field when I plowed it it looked like it was all red clay without any topsoil. I put 350 lbs of lime on the 1/2 acre and 100lbs of fertilizer when it was up two inched and its growing like gang busters! A quater mile away from that I plowed up 2 1/2 acres at my cousins. The soil looked great topsoil as deep as I plowed same seed and planting method and fertilizer but no lime and its barely growing.
A lot of farmers have their own soil test stuff so if you have any farmer friends you can ask if they can test the soil for you.
Take care of your equipment and it will take care of you. 1964 cub. Farmall 100 and 130.

Re: Prepping garden soil for next year
Ed, those broccoli florets never got bigger around than a half-dollar then they opened right up.
Shoulda got ones at least 4-6" the first go around no?
Here's the reply I got from the extension office:
"Ohio State University quit doing soil testing several years ago. You can stop in the office any time Monday through Friday 8:30am to 4 pm as we
have soil test kits from Penn State and the cost is $9.54 - this would be for a basic soil test. Also at the local stores such as Lowe's, Home Depot
etc sell soil test kits which you would do the test on your own."
By 'basic' I assume that means PH only?
Re: Prepping garden soil for next year
Description of the basic Penn State soil test kit, above.
The Missouri extension office soil test kit cost right at $15.00. The results included a good portion of tests the Penn State kit charges extra fees.
Several years ago I purchased a soil tester from Lowes. Basically it only tested the PH factor. Wasn't worth the money.
I have an excuse. CRS.
Re: Prepping garden soil for next year
The broccoli grew tiny florets, because of a nutrient issue. Could be ph, or lack of nutrients. You didn't mulch with wood chips, by any chance, did you? Bacteria, that break down wood fiber, tie up a lot of nitrogen, causing the plants to starve. Ed

Re: Prepping garden soil for next year
I didn't use any type of mulch at all.
I heard back from the extension office again.
I send in the soil sample and they will tell me what the PH is, among a few other things and also what I need to add to the soil.
Sounds like a good deal for $10 bucks to me.
If I follow the advise I should recover WAAAY more than the cost in more veggies next year.
I guess I'll be looking for some old poop pretty soon too....
Re: Prepping garden soil for next year
My tester shows the ph at between 6.0 to 7.0 and the fert. level on the high side(needle peged) of the meter.(soil testing by fert. company for gardens here is VERY costly, they only want to do it for the MEGA FARMERS, and not us little pee ons with a 5 acre garden)-----I have been down 6 feet with the backhoe diggin out trees and never did hit yellow or red clay!---black all the way down!---thats why I deep rip and plow deep here!---granted not everyone is blessed with such deep soil AND would have to adjust their tillage methods accordingly!---if you have 2 inches of topsoil then bedrock from there down, then no deep rip wont work for you.
I only stated what I do here and have the massive production of produce each year to prove it works!
I cant afford fert./lime at todays prices and dont need any on ground that is already over rated to begin with.------What I need is some way to kill all these damn VOLES that destroy most of my production!-----I have noticed that deep rip and plow does tend to make some of them go some where else for the winter . I plow up voles, toads, and snakes out here all the time in the fall!---Hate to disturb the toads, but gotta plow!
The rain/snow/freezing out goes down deep to help mellow out the ground and catch and store water that would otherwise go to waste! in the spring I have good moisture for a long time into summer before it runs out and I have pulled plant roots up from below where I rip and plow so I know the roots do go deep. thanks; sonny

UL Listed HomeSaver Foil-Face FlexWrap Insulation
When you use genuine HomeSaver Foil-Face FlexWrap, you're getting the best dollar-for-dollar insulating value on the market and insulation is a necessary part of a UL Listed HomeSaver solid fuel relining installation.
Foil-Face FlexWrap is truly a great insulator. It consists of special ceramic fibers that resist separation, making it perfect for installations with bends and offsets. When installed, it also helps to center your liner properly in the chimney.
HomeSaver's special ceramic blanket is covered with a tough aluminum foil that's 2 mil thick. The foil adds insulating value and makes FlexWrap easy to work with and easy to cover with HomeSaver ArmorMesh.
To install FlexWrap, simply wrap it lengthwise on your pipe and seal the seam with Foil Tape. Then cover it with HomeSaver ArmorMesh Insulation Cover. Some of our customers opt to wrap the insulation every two feet. Lengthwise is better, but either way will give you the coverage you need.
Available in 1/4", 1/2", and 1" thick, it comes in 25' rolls. There are two widths in the 1/2" to choose from, 24" and 48" and three widths in the 1/4" to choose from: 24", 30", and 48". Note: Only one wrap of 1/2" thick FlexWrap brings your flex reline to the UL 1777 Standard for zero clearance.
Don't forget the ArmorMesh and Tape that is needed for installation.

We thought that since we provided insurance information, there was a reduced rate - not the $130/month. I guess we misunderstood. Thanks!Betsy from Northbridge, MA

Very satisfied with your company and professional service. You set the standard for self-storage. I also found the email reminders very helpful! Thank you. One $$ saving idea... Maybe install solar panels on your units... That's a lot of area sitting in the sun and doing nothing. Could provide lighting and cooling for each unit as possibly supplying electricity back to the grid. Thanks for the email reminders. Very helpful.Stephen from Auburn, MA

AT&T announced Thursday it plans to hire for more than 1,000 full- and part-time positions throughout Georgia – including nearly 600 new jobs – "immediately."The positions are for network construction and maintenance, customer support, retail and other positions. "Georgia businesses and consumers are using more communications services such as wireless and broadband," Governor Nathan Deal said Thursday. "These jobs will provide opportunities for our citizens in one of the fastest-growing parts of the Georgia economy and will help build critical communications infrastructure and provide customer support."Many of the new positions are the result of AT&T's recently announced Project Velocity IP, a three-year multibillion dollar investment plan to expand and enhance its national wireless and wired IP broadband networks. Full- and part-time positions include competitive wages and benefits. AT&T currently employs more than 21,000 employees in Georgia. The company constantly hires new talent as its job mix and product line changes with its industry, and last year filled thousands of positions.
