First FULL Week At Werk…

I’m enjoying working with my junior technicians.

I’d like to share a random tale. This one showcases 6 different urban myths. I’d rate it as PG-13.
About 30 (thirty) years ago, TS and I went to an psychic faire back in British Columbia. We had a vaguely similar experience. Nope. Nope. Nope!
Re: The Uncanny Valley. TS & I have mused about putting weird gardens gnomes at the 4 corners of the property. Ensure they are covered with bioluminescent fungi. I think visiting our place should be an unforgettable experience! Especially at night. TS reserves the right to veto my action.

Another year of stand-up philosophy!

I’m looking forward to this contract year (as a high school science teacher). Would I rather be on the property clearing the build site? Would I rather be pulling out deadfall and Widowmakers on our 10Ha woodlot? Would I rather be maintaining the tractor/ATV trails with my Sthil saws & cutters? Would I rather be chipping branches for our soil operation? Would I rather be bucking & splitting logs for storage (for eventual sale or for fueling an outdoor oven or soaker tub)?

Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. And, yes.

…I’m still learning how to embed RSS feeds onto our site. I visit HOW TO GEEK and its daughter sites (essentially) daily. This week, there was an opinion article about how unpleasant it is to watch movies at stand-alone theatres (link). TS also enjoyed the article.

(Forest) Fire-Safe? Yes, it’s a thing.

I’d strongly advise my peers living in the bush to prepare for this summer’s forest fire season. CBC Radio’s The Current had an excellent, no-nonsense episode about preparing for forest fires. Lytton, B.C. has had its share of wildfires. I respect the First Nations who prepare for these extreme weather events.

It’s 2022, people. WE MUST LISTEN TO OUR NEIGHBOURS. These are transferable skills that can be used on my North Bruce Peninsula.

I want to learn more about my neighbours. Here are their websites: https://lfn.band/ and https://saugeenfirstnation.ca/ … With respect, PN.
