Garden symphylan eggs? Help!
Hello again, I had posted a while back about finding some garden symphylans in the soil of a tree I purchased online from the Pacific NW. I live in Ohio and I'm told that these pests do no like our colder winters. That sounds great and I'm really hoping that this winter will wipe them out because they are really starting to annoy me.
Recently I have been finding what I believe to be garden symphylan eggs around the base of my tree. Oh yeah, the tree is a Japanese Maple called a Moonrise by the way. I thought at first that the little light colored dots might have been some sort of mushroom. But as I looked all over my garden I could not find anything like it except around the base of my Moonrise tree. I finally had my old man (who is obsessed with mushrooms and fungus) take a look at the stuff and he said it was not fungus but probably some sort of egg.
When I heard that it all started to make sense. Suddenly a LOT of eggs started showing up in just one spot in my garden. The only thing that made this spot unique was that I noticed the garden symphylans present in the soil. So I'm going to go ahead and assume that the eggs belong to those little pests. I tried to find descriptions of their eggs and what I found was pretty vague and basically lined up with what I was finding.
I should point out a couple of things that make me so worried about the garden symphylan infestation. First of all, I have found huge numbers of eggs on 3 occasions now. when I say huge numbers, I mean at least 100. They are very small and they nearly cover the soil circle around the trunk of the tree. That circle is about 3" in diameter. I also found them in the mulch just next to the circle of soil around the tree for maybe another inch or so. I have read that the garden symphylan will lay about 12-20 eggs, so I must have quite a few down there to be seeing eggs in such huge numbers.
I should also point out that the Moonrise tree I'm talking about has the thickest trunk and is probably the oldest tree of the dozen that I bought this year. Despite that, it has been doing the worst this year by far compared to the rest of the trees I got. I got the Moonrise and nothing else from the seller thankfully, so I'm not as worried about the rest of my trees. Also, I planted the Moonrise in a raised garden bed that has no other Japanese Maples in it so I think I've quarantined them off sufficiently well.
But I would REALLY love any help or insight from people about how to deal with this apparent garden symphylan city beneath my poor Moonrise tree. The leaves have been droopy at times and some have turned brown. It seems to go in surges. At times the tree will look ok. But then I'll have a few days where it seems sick for sure. I'm hoping that the tree will recover after a cold winter. But to be honest, at this point I'm just hoping that my tree makes it through the winter.
I only have seen the eggs at night an only after a rain or a watering when the soil is moist. I have been physically removing them and then throwing the eggs in the trash. I am reticent to use poisons for fear of the tree's health, and also because poisons seem kind of dangerous for anything living down there. But I'll use poisons if it means saving the tree. At this point I'm just not feeling good about my tree's chances. Especially after seeing just how many eggs these things are pumping out. I will keep looking for the eggs at night, but I'm sure that I have missed some. Besides, it seems like there are plenty of the garden symphylans down there even if I get all of their eggs. So I want to figure out a way to either A: kill them or B: stregthen the tree enough to make it through a cold winter. To be honest, I want to do both, but it seems like killing these things might be easier said than done. Most of what I have read talks about killing them along with any plants in the area which I am obviously not going to do while my tree still lives.
Ok, I've droned on long enough. Thanks for any advice!
I would crosspost in the Pests and Diseases Forum.
In the meantime I ran a Gardenweb search and was twice directed to the link below- perhaps it can be of some help to you?
Here is a link that might be useful: Symphylans: Soil Pest Management Options
Do your eggs look like these?
Here is a link that might be useful: symphylan eggs, the real thing
Yes I would say that the eggs look like that. I didn't look at them under a magnifying glass or anything, but they were mostly white and about that size, maybe even a bit smaller. I didn't notice them having those spine looking things on them, but like I said, I did not have any magnification either.
I was actually trying to take some pictures of them, but I couldn't find my good camera anywhere. I tried using the one on my phone, but the pictures didn't really come out that well at all. Next time I see them I will get a picture and post it though.

"Fantastic Read, Great Ending to an Amazing Saga"
I really enjoyed this novel. It was an awesome conclusion to all of the fantastic storytelling and great characters Hugh Howey has given us with Wool and Shift. It was all over far earlier than I would have liked it to be, but then I was dreading finishing this book even as I started the first chapter. It probably went by so fast too because I was enjoying it so much. I didn't want the Silo Saga to end because I have had such a great experience surviving with its characters for some time now. Wool is still my favorite but I enjoyed reading Dust much more than Shift. While shift did a great job of revealing to me how this crazy world came into being Dust returned to having more dramatic and exciting things happen in the story like Wool. There were a lot of scenes that were very gripping and kept me glued to my iPod to hear each and every new word.
I won't give anything away but I will say when I read the ending I was so happy to be with those characters in that historical moment for them and for their world. It was really moving and I was smiling the whole time I read it. It wasn't all sunshine and rainbows for every character though, and I really enjoyed seeing characters I have come to love go through more intense and trying situations.
I felt that Hugh did a good job of ending his series and keeping a good balance with all of the characters and silos in the story. By the time you're reading this book there are many characters and silos Hugh had to juggle to finish out his awesome saga. It didn't feel like that though. Yes there was a log of switching between silos and characters, but everytime the viewpoint character or setting switch I was just instantly right with them or right there that it never felt like a big back and forth. It just felt like one cohesive and awesome story. I highly recommend this book. I loved it.
"A Clever Unique Story"
I enjoyed this story and I'm glad I read it but parts of it bored me. I love the idea behind it and the overall story was awesome but there were some flabby bits that the editor should have advised Brandon to cut out. There weren't many but sometimes there were parts that got off track and rabbit trailed into obscure musings that didn't move the story along. Even with these flabby bits, however, it was a really cool story with very interesting characters and a fantastic story idea executed fairly well. I gave it 4/5 stars instead of 3/5 stars because I liked the ending and thought it was funny and very clever.
"boring and weird"
I got this little classic book for free as an audiobook from Audible. They're cool like that. It was extremely boring and the story was hard to follow. Part of this is because the story was just so odd. I could care less about the characters in this book. I was not interested in the story at any moment even once. The entire thing bored me. If it had not been so short I would not have finished it.
It was narrated by Julia Whelan and she is a pro and did a fantastic job. Great narration - but no narration, no matter how fantastic, could save these stories for me.
"Great Sci-Fi Adventure"
This book was an awesome adventure. A series of events unfolded that took me to strange places where I got to meet some very interesting characters. The main character Jim is on his way to see his family when his ship crashes onto a lonely planet. No one is there to accompany him, but as he begins to look for a way to survive he meets some strange creatures.
I really liked the way Beshears described the landscape and the way he painted an image of the two suns of the planet in detail. It was some great writing. You don't get bogged down in the details though; they just enrich the story which is one great adventure. It starts a little slow but in a good way that helps you feel the way the main character does. He is desperate and lost on an alien planet just trying to survive by finding food and shelter.
There were some superb similes used in this book, and I love a good simile. I remember two tunnels next to each other being described as black empty eye sockets. That was a great and creepy image that added to the tension of the scene. Just the touch you needed as a reader to get you feeling the way the character was. The author does a good job building the atmosphere of the strange world the characters explorer. The alien creatures were described in a way that made them easy to picture and somewhat terrifying. Much different than anything we know here on Earth.
The last thing I'll hit on is that I listened to the audiobook version of this story. It was well produced. The narrator Benjamin Isaac Armstrong has a pleasant deep voice. He speaks clearly and his voice is easy to follow and understand. That is what's most important in an audiobook. Now here's where I'll get nitpicky. For my tastes I found his style a bit hard to get into. He over enunciates words in my opinion and his reading was a bit flat missing that dramatic sing song rhythm I've come to love from other narrators. That said he did a great job and if you go check out the sample I'm sure you'll love his voice. I'm probably just a bit of an audiobook snob being an avid longtime listener and a narrator myself.
Whether in paper, eBook, or audiobook you'll enjoy the adventure with Jim and his interesting companions and adversaries.
"Good story, Great Narrator"
This was a cool book. Jason Gurley is a good writer. The ideas in this book are awesome. You will probably really like this book. So why did I give the story 3/5 stars?
The narrative of the book felt disjointed to me. It was like reading a bunch of short stories that all took place in the same story world, and then parts of those short stories were broken up and shuffled around with other parts from other short stories. You might love the author's approach, but I found it hard to get to know the characters when the story would shift so often to another set of characters. Like I said the ideas in this book are really cool and actually sucked me right in from the start. When I read the first few chapters of this book I was hooked right away. Then I was forced to hop around between different narratives and I just kept waiting for them to become more connected by the end. I think if this book was simply reorganized a bit by shifting parts of the story around so they're more connected I would have given it 4/5 stars.
I get that this novel tackles a huge idea of people having to leave earth which calls for maybe more than one narrative, but I would have much preferred the stories to be more connected by the end of the book. The stories themselves were good and I enjoyed them, I just kept wondering why the author suddenly switched to a different set of characters. I never felt grounded in the story.
All that to say you might love the way this book was written, and Gurley is a talented writer. He has cool ideas and writes well. Maybe it's just me. A lot of people loved the book World War Z which has several accounts of different characters dealing with a huge event and that book didn't appeal to me either. I'm thinking this is more of a personal preference of storytelling style than that this book isn't a great read. For me it was at times a good read, but overall I felt like I was getting thrown all over the place as a reader.
So before I end this review I have to mention the audiobook. Listening to it is how I read the book. Maria Hunter Welles did an amazing job narrating the novel. She came up with great voices for the different characters and did a fantastic job delivering the lines of dialog. Her voice is just so genuine even while reading the narrator lines that you feel like she's sitting across from you at the bar telling you a great story. She's a real talent and I would jump at the chance to listen to another audiobook she has narrated. I think her performance made this book one I enjoyed much more than I would have if I were reading it in paperback or eBook format.
I'll end by saying that I would read another book by Jason Gurley. When he was focused on one set of characters for an extended part of the story he did a great job. It looks like he's written a lot of books too so I'm sure another one of his titles will find it's way onto my phone from either the Kindle store or as an audiobook from Audible.
"Fantastic Story, Amazing Narration & Production"
This novel is book 1 in the The Thrawn Trilogy and part of the expanded Star Wars universe. Part of the reason I decided to read this book is the fact that the new Star Wars movie, Episode VII is coming out next year thanks to Disney buying Lusas Film. It made me curious just what happened to the film characters in the novels all this time. Now when I watch the films I'll be able to pick up on any little Easter eggs they might throw in for fans of the Star Wars novelizations that have kept the story going in the absence of movies all these years. It's probably not likely they'll use anything from the novels as they've said they're only going to use the movies as cannon moving forward, but I was still really curious. I'm really glad I decided to give this book a read, and that I chose to consume it via audiobook.
The author Timothy Zahn does a tremendous job with some of the most beloved characters known to science fiction fans. Honestly I was a little hesitant to read this book because I have concrete ideas about who all of the Star Wars characters are. How they react to situations, the way they talk, the way they interact with others. They all felt very much like the characters I have come to love from the original Star Wars trilogy. Zahn also did a fantastic job developing some new characters that played a major role in this book. Of course there is Grand Admiral Thrawn, who the trilogy is named after. Zahn does a remarkable job of having this character come across as a terrifying individual. Someone who is calm and calculating in the face of cataclysmic events. A person with enormous powers of reasoning and deduction. Someone whose determination to see his plans come to fruition is unshakable no matter what setbacks may occur. Thrawn is a villain I loved to hate and someone who came off as impressive, incredibly capable, and scary to me. Any story is much better when the bad guy your heroes face is an extremely formidable foe that sends chills down your spine. A person you would never want to meet in real life, even if you were on their side. I really enjoyed the character development of Grand Admiral Thrawn in this book and I look forward to seeing him in action again when I read the next book.
Another great character was a man named Talon Karrde. You hear rumors about him for a while before you meet him. Before he appears in a scene you have a sort of reverence for him and his reputation precedes him. When you get to see him in action he lives up to all the hype. I loved Karrde's interaction with some of my favorite characters.
All the favorites are in this book. R2-D2, C-3PO, Leia, Han, Lando Calrissian, Luke, Wedge Antilles, Admiral Ackbar, and of course Chewbacca who's home world you get to visit!
The courage and bravery of the good guys in this book was exciting to read. There were a lot of slow scenes where big parts were moving and a lot of exhilarating action scenes. This book has a lot. I can think of intimate scenes where you get to see what it's like for Luke and Leia to use the force. There quiet scenes between characters where not much is happening but a lot is going on emotionally and internally. This novel had to be done this well because it handles some of the most loved characters of all time in a universe that fans around the world are crazy about. Timothy Zahn more than pulled it off. I'm so excited there are two more books! And that I will get to watch new Star Wars movies in the theaters with my kids! Woo-hoo! Sorry that has nothing to do with this book, but I'm just excited!
Last but not least, I can't end this review without touching on how fantastic the audiobook version is. I listened to the 20th Anniversary Edition narrated by Marc Thompson. Marc's ability to voice all the characters so well was nothing short of brilliant. The guy does all the voices spot on and there are a lot of characters in this book. Major props to him from one newbie inexperienced audiobook narrator to veteran pro. I can't stress how good of a job Marc Thompson did narrating this book. He makes this audiobook come alive as a sort of audio play but all acted out by one man with a thousand voices. His versatility as a narrator is something you just can't miss.
This audiobook also had much more production than any other professional audiobook I have heard. There were always complex weavings of sounds making up the background atmosphere of the scenes. You always knew if the characters where at a space port, on a ship, or deep in a forest. From massive epic space battles, to quick action scenes with intense fighting to quiet moments where hearing R2-D2's emotive beeps to Luke make you feel like you're right there in the Star Wars universe. This audiobook is easily one of the most entertaining listens I have ever experienced. I can't wait to listen to the next book in the Thrawn Trilogy.
"Great Intriguing Story, Fabulous Narration"
I really enjoyed this novel. I love police procedural stories and this book had some of that but it was a little different because the main character is a retired detective. If anything that just made it more interesting. As usual, with a Stephen King novel, the characters were fantastically rendered and felt like acquaintances from real life by the time I was a few chapters in. One thing that made this book so cool was how different all the characters were from each other. Seeing people from opposite sides of the spectrum work together to solve a case was really cool. I won't elaborate so I don't spoil the story, but the makeup of the characters was really interesting and watching the ways they interacted really added a level of intrigue to the story.
The antagonist, or bad guy, in this novel was chilling. When you read his inner monologue you're glad you're not on the other end of his diabolical plans. He's scary because in his day to day interactions with people he's just a banal guy you wouldn't have a reason to remember. Then when he goes home at night, where he still lives with his mother, he makes plans. He and his mother have a relationship that was revolting to me. I'm sure this added to my discust towards this character. He's one of those bad guys you love to hate. Just as you're rooting for the good guys, you're rooting for the antagonist to get what's coming to him.
The romance in this book came off to me as authentic and original. It was between two somewhat unlikely characters. It adds a bit of joy to this fairly dark noir tale.
Without spoiling anything I will say that before the book is over not all of the important characters make it out alive. King pulls no punches here and the character's death does a nice job of making you that much more anxious more characters will die later in the story when the conflict and danger gets turned up a notch.
I've read a handful of King's older novels, many of the ones considered to be classics. I know to some people his writing suffered for many years as he struggled with alcohol and substance abuse. I'm here to tell you that every new Stephen King book I read is fantastic. He's back and I'm so glad he's still cranking them out. I've loved all of his new novels and the same holds true with this one.
The last thing I'll mention is that I listened to the audiobook version of this novel. It's narrated by Will Patton who is a phenomenal voice talent. I first heard him narrate when I listened to Doctor Sleep which is the sequel to The Shining. Patton really brought that book to life. I think he was a great pick for this book too because his voice is perfect for the main character who is a retired detective. He has that authentic gruff voice that really fit the protagonist. He delivers the book with such a great conversational read that you get pulled in right away. He's a great actor too, delivering lines of sensitive emotion, raw anger, and insane sociopath spot on. You believe right away when you hit play and Will starts telling you the story.
After finishing this book I found out it's to be the first in a trilogy. I'm thrilled. I can't wait to visit these characters again.
"Fun Setting, Interesting Story"
This was an interesting read. I was not expecting the story to go where it did. I won't spoil anything, but lets just say there's a really big reveal. It's a bit mind boggling. The main characters are a group of kids. They have a really cool clubhouse in the middle of the woods behind their neighborhood. In this way it reminded me of Stephen King's IT or The Body. The kids are on to something strange going on in their neighborhood. They visit an old professor who doesn't let them in on the secret but asks for their help. They go on an adventure and by the end of the they book find out some pretty crazy things about their world.
I loved how well the author described the clubhouse the kids were always sneaking off to. I could picture it in my mind. It is an awesome clubhouse and reading about it made me think fondly back on the tree house my brothers and I had as kids. The characters do a lot of talking about the odd things going on around them in that clubhouse, and it was a great setting I was happy to visit every time a scene took place there.
I listened to the audiobook version of this story. The narrator Karen Krause was great. Her voice welcomes you into the world of Ravenhill Court. She fit the story well and I think the author made a good choice selecting her to read this book.
"A Thrilling First Adventure"
This short book was really cool. I would love to see the movie for this one. Think action meets Science Fiction suspense. You've got a bunch of scientists and some military people going into a massive skyscraper. Inside they find not a bunch of offices, but a dense jungle filled with alien vegetation. As they make their way through the first floor they come up against some pretty menacing and creepy stuff.
There were some great moments in this book that were exciting and chilling. It was a fun read and I pictured myself right alongside the characters as they headed out on this strange and terrifying adventure. You only get the beginning of the larger adventure in this book, but there's plenty in there to keep you listening or turning the pages.
I listened to the audiobook version of this story. The narrator has a very pleasant, smooth, and deep voice. It was nice to listen to especially during the narration parts. His reading came off a bit flat for me though. Every character was voiced the same which made it a bit hard at times to distinguish between the characters. It would help to have a more dramatic reading style with more pauses and variation in the speed of the reading to bring this great story across with all of its wonderful flourishes and well constructed prose. You'll like the narrators great voice though and probably won't be as critical as someone like me who narrates audiobooks and listens to them nonstop.
I would highly recommend this book to anyone who likes their sci-fi with a bit of intrigue, adventure, suspense, and a splash of creepy horror that will keep you wanting to read on so you can find out more about the aliens the characters must learn more about.
"Action, Romance, Mystery, & Lots of Laughs"
This was a really fun read. Think of an action thriller mixed with a romantic comedy and you have In Deep Shitake. The characters were awesome and you really come to love and root for them as they stumble through their many misadventures.
This novel was really funny. It had me laughing all the way through. The two main characters and their interesting relationship was a driving force pulling you further into the story as the characters constantly faced more urgent matters. There is a big mystery that gets revealed by the end of the book, and I didn't guess how it would all shake out. There are lots ingredients that come together to make In Deep Shitake great. Humor, action, mystery, romance, and the interesting characters.
I do have to give a content warning. There were a couple of scenes that were too steamy for my tastes so I skipped over them but it was easy to tell what happened in the dialog following those scenes. They had a lot of impact on the story and its characters too. These were not scenes thrown in to shock the readers and they made sense for the story.
I listened to the audiobook version of this novel and the narrator Michael Karl Orenstein did a terrific job. He was great at portraying the different characters with wonderful accents, pitch changes, and inflections. There were a lot of funny characters that showed up all over the book in small scenes and Orenstein came up with perfect voices for all of them. Many times I'm sure I was laughing a lot harder for his spot on delivery and rendering of a character's voice than if I had been reading the eBook or paperback. His acting was superb in all the dialog, and his narrator's voice was smooth and engaging. I would definitely pick up another audiobook narrated by him.
To wrap it up I would recommend this story to anyone who is looking to have a good time reading a novel. It was just what I needed after reading IT by Stephen King. A normal length novel that shows you a really great time. This book had lovable characters with interesting relationships, cool action, a great love story, and a lot of laughs.
"A Great Tough Story, and a Page Turner"
This was a great book. Not an easy one to read in some ways, but also not easy to put down. The issues dealt with in this book are pretty heavy. I don't want to spoil anything but lets just say family turmoil. It's not a book you just pick up for some light reading, but it is a page turner.
It's a real intimate story as it unfolds told in first person. It feels like reading the main character Lizzie's diary. I am by no means the target audience for this book, but if a man in his 30s enjoyed it I'm guessing most of you will too. Just be warned the stuff the main character deals with are very intense. The main character is a teen in her high school years. Her life falls apart in many ways, although unlike most little things like a break up with a boyfriend that can shake a teen's world, Lizzie deals with some big scary things.
The characters were very real, especially the main character and viewpoint character Lizzie. You feel like you're peering into her every thought as you read the words she poured out onto the page. I listened to the audiobook of this story and the narrator Maria Hunter Welles was fantastic. Her voice fits the book perfectly. It's amazingly genuine and sounds just as you think it should as you come to know the character and story more. It's like listening to the character sit down in the food court at the mall and spill her guts to you about what's been going on in her life. The narrator was spot on. I'm excited to listen to another one of her audiobooks in the near future.
So in closing, great story. Super tough issues dealt with by very genuine and fleshed out characters you can picture in you mind as you read or listen to the story. Because of its content this story might not be for everyone, but it's done so well I think that almost anyone would appreciate it's depth and bold reach into places most stories about teens and families don't go.

Fault Lines on the city's homelessness crisis
30 Jul 2012 12:06 GMT | Sport, Latin America, Belarus, Brazil, Egypt
Neymar ran to the sideline and struck the famous Usain Bolt lightning pose. It was football's biggest Olympic star honouring one of the London Games' most acclaimed athletes.Neymar celebrated by imitating his idol after scoring from a free kick and leading Brazil to a 3-1 win over Belarus 3-1 on Sunday, securing the gold-medal favorite a spot in the quarterfinals of the men's Olympic tournament."It was for Bolt, we did his celebration,'' Neymar said.Neymar has his own legion of fans following him everywhere he shows up, but even before heading to London he had already said he was hoping to meet with Bolt to get an autograph and take a photo with the Jamaican, who will becompeting later in the Olympics."I haven't met him yet but I hope it happens,'' said the 20-year-old Brazilian, touted as the future of Brazilian football.Neymar struck a well-placed right-foot shot into the left upper corner of the net in the 65th minute to break a deadlock as Brazil struggled to get near the Belarus goal despite controlling possession at Old Trafford.Belarus opened the scoring through Brazilian-born playmaker Renan Bressan in the eighth, but Alexandre Pato equalised with a header in the 15th after a cross by Neymar, who also set up Oscar's final goal in injury time.Chasing first goldThe victory gave Brazil six points in Group C, three more than Belarus.New Zealand and Egypt, who drew 1-1 earlier in Manchester, have one point each.Brazil will play their last group match against New Zealand while Belarus will face Egypt."I'm glad that I was able to play well again and that I got the goal and the assists,'' Neymar said.
"It's normal, you can't always please everyone...I'm glad things changed today, though"
"The victory was important to make sure we make it to the next round no matter what happens in the final match.''Neymar's goal was the 100th all-time for Brazil in the Olympics. The youngster had been criticised for his lackluster play in Brazil's first match."It's normal, you can't always please everyone,'' he said. "I'm glad things changed today, though.''Brazil are trying to win their first gold medal in football. The Olympic tournament is the only significant football competition the five-time world champions haven't won. The Brazilians earned silver in 1984 and 1988, and bronze in 1996 and 2008."We played with more intelligence in the second half, working the ball better to find the spaces we needed to find,'' Brazil coach Mano Menezes said. "It was the first time this team was down in the score but it was able to overcome the deficit, that was important. A team that wants to be successful needs to go through these situations and respond accordingly, and we did.''

Saints pleased with Wood progress
ESPN Staff
September 2, 2012
Tom Wood made his comeback in Northampton's win over Gloucester © Getty Images
Northampton boss Jim Mallinder hopes that Tom Wood will have a big impact on their season after returning from injury.
The England flanker missed a large chunk of last season due to a troublesome toe injury - sitting out the Six Nations and June tour to South Africa after initially being tipped as a possible captain following the retirement of Lewis Moody.
The 25-year-old played 80 minutes in the Saints' hard-fought 24-19 victory over Gloucester in their Aviva Premiership opener on Saturday and now Mallinder hopes to see his influence grow.
"We have been drip-feeding him back in over the last couple of weeks and he is really pleased," Mallinder said.
"We really missed him last season. We are just being cautious with him and we are pleased he is back and playing well. He is important to the team.
"He has played 80 minutes now and he will want to play next week. We know the potential of Tom Wood and hopefully he can have a big season for us."

Enjoy this private fully furnished oceanfront house located on Oahu's West (Waianae) Coast near the world famous Makaha Surfing Beach, which is about a mile away from the home. There are also two smaller beaches a couple of houses down the street, where you will see some turtles laying around.
The home is close to the new Disney resort, Ko'Olina Resort, the water park, world class golf courses, Costco, Target, lots of dining and shopping options, and a perfect setting for a multitude of outdoor sports (surfing, paddle boarding, canoe, kayaking, snorkeling, boating, swimming with dolphins, hiking)
Makaha has everything you could want in a vacation get-away - the comfort of a private home, an abundance of activities, and the serenity of a private ocean, all conveniently located within 45 minutes from the nightlife, sightseeing, and dining of Honolulu and Waikiki. Enter, exhale, and then experience the pure magic that is Hawaii.
The property fronts coral reefs. There are also many turtles swimming in the water right in front of the home.
During whale season November-April, watch the whales jumping in the ocean from the back yard while having dinner on the patio or swimming in the nice water pool.
You will be amazed when you enter the Serenity home. You are able to see through to the backyard pool and ocean as the whole 30-foot back wall slides open to the backyard where the pool, barbecue grill and ocean are.

We rented this place for my parents' anniversary, and it proved to be the perfect venue for all ages - from 18 months to 65 years old! We especially enjoyed the pool on days that were too windy to be at a nearby beach. The nearby turtle cove was incredibly charming and is not to be missed.
The owner was wonderful to work with leading up to the trip, and the next door neighbor/property manager were welcoming, kind and helpful.
It was a bit of a drive to some attractions, but the beautiful home and amazing view made it well worth it. We already miss the beautiful sunsets and nearby hiking options.
The space also functioned very well. The kitchen was spacious, there was adequate storage, and there were plenty of beds. We appreciated that there were many things already provided for the pool, beach and pantry. We would definitely recommend the property to anyone looking for a picturesque and quiet escape!
We stayed at this house for 9 days, the home was exactly as advertised. Beautiful inside and out, there was everything we needed to feel right at home. There was plenty of space for all of us to relax comfortably. The owner was great to deal with and answered any questions promptly that we had. I cannot say enough positive things about this rental. We would defiantly stay here again if we vacation on the island again.
We had a group of 10 staying and had plenty of room for all. What a spectacular location. House is very well equipped including some basic pantry items.
The ower is great to deal with.
He addressed a couple of issues immediately in order to make our stay the best it could be.
We are all looking forward to our next stay here.
We stayed at this exceptional rental over Christmas and loved the home very much. It is spacious and well designed so everyone had their own space but there were plenty of places to gather and chat too. We had big meals around the huge table and a few great BBQ's by the poolside as well. The glass wall that opens up to the most incredible view is something I thought was only for the rich and famous.
The house was very well equipped and truly beautiful. The kids played in the pool all day, except for our walks to the turtle beach about 5 minutes away. The neighbours in the green house were very welcoming and their warmth was appreciated.
The only downside to this vacation rental was the lack of pubs and restaurants close by. We would have loved to walk down to a seaside pub but there were none to be found. There is a neat pub on the army base only a few minutes drive away and we LOVED the atmosphere there (mostly locals, not touristy), but the food was NOT very good at all - so we suggest going there for drinks not dinner. The best thing that we came across near the end of our trip was the resort area about 20 minutes away where the Disney Hotel was. This area had a lot of pubs and higher end restaurants and was more what we were looking for in evening entertainment.
All in all - the house was well worth missing out on a little evening entertainment, and if we had known we would have just planned an excursion into the resort area a night or two. We also had a nice time sitting around the big screen in the family room watching movies that were provided. Scott (the owner) was very nice in our correspondence and we had no issues what so ever with payment, our reservation or getting our damage deposit back.
My family and I had a great time staying at this house. The house is fully remodeled inside, there were 11 of us and we all had plenty of room! The pool is great and the backyard has an amazing view of the ocean. The master bed room also has a balcony where you can look out to the ocean, great place for sunsets.
My friend's family and mine had a great week in this house. This house has a beautiful ocean view and private swimming pool. My group has 3 seniors, 4 adults and 4 kids, there are plenty room for kids to play. The landlord prepared everything for us, you don't need to worry about the shampoo, all kinds of paper, kitchen, toilet... If you need to buy something, costco and target are 30 minutes drive. There is also a grocery store in 7-8 minutes drive. You can walk to the sand beach within 5 minute from this house, we even saw a turtle resting on the beach which is 2 minute walk south. Owner and the neighbor are nice and helpful!

Bareroot Annanelle Hydrangeas
pmsmith2032(5b Suburbs of Chicago)February 22, 2013
I was just at Meijer and picked up three Annabelle Hydrageas. They are bareroot by DeGroot so not sure if they were a good buy or not. They don't look like they've budded out yet (I see a bit of green on one of them). Should I store them in the garage until the ground thaws?
luis_pr(7b/8a Hurst, TX)
Yeah, I would pot them until things warm up a bit more, say, until after your average date of last frost in Spring. More or less. They are very hardy but very nice plants!
See a good picture here (the white ones are Annabelles):

Gun ban would protect more than 2,200 firearms
1 of 1
This undated evidence photo, provided by retired FBI agent Edmund Mireles, shows the Ruger Mini-14 used by one of the shooters in the deadly April 11, 1986 bank robbery shootout in Miami that left two FBI agents dead and five others injured. New models of this firearm that have folding stocks and pistol grips would be banned under proposed gun control legislation under consideration in Congress. But a similar model without a folding stock would be exempted. Both models can take detachable magazines that hold dozens of rounds of ammunition. Mireles was among the five agents injured.
