An important part of living green! Claremont, New Hampshire

Thank you for visiting! It's good to help Mother Earth!

Knowledge is the Power for Your Freedom to a Worry Free Home!

You and your family should enjoy the outdoors

A very important part of living in a green home is to appreciating why you went to all the effort to create a home that would sit lightly on the land, and compliment Mother Earth. Whether it be weeding your flower garden, enjoying a meal outdoors with your family, reading a fine book on your front porch, or even working on your laptop under a tree in the backyard.

Being outdoors will put you in closer touch with Mother Earth and nature. It could even help remind you and your family why it's so important to keep the air clean and the nearby woodlands, wetlands or prairies healthy for all the wildlife family's.

Nice reminder, Dale! I need to get some gardening going. Definitely.

Chris

Howdy Chris

I am always glad to have you stop by to visit.

Thank ya. We all always need to do that, thats for sure,

God Bless The U.S.A.

Dale - With all your reminders I'm not going to have time to play and go fishing. Honestly, all your great tips are very helpful and we need to be doing more of the simple things in life.

They finished our driveway Friday afternoon, I'll get some pictures posted, rather Ceil will, she is the one that did the before and after picture taking, making arrangements with the county for permits and making sure everything was lined up. They will leave the forms up for a week, said to keep it sprinkled down with water so it won't crack with this hot dry wind that is blowing, so that's what we will do. I have the front of the well house finished with hardy, three sides to go. Too many projects going on at one time; thank goodness for Ceil; she is very organized.

Kids coming over for a BBQ so I better run.

Howdy Carl and Ceil

AS always I'm glad to have ya visit my friend's.

Carl - Always take some time to go fishing and play. I'm a fine one to talk, I have not taken a vacation in over 15 years.

I do get out in the yard, and do make time to be with nature, and some other thing that I enjoy doing. Only a day here and there.

I can't wait to read your post about it, and see the photo's. I know it's going to be a good one, for sure. You should do one about the well house also.

Hope Y'all have a fun BBQ. See ya later.

God Bless The U.S.A.

Dale, I just wish we could be a little more kind and gentle to this place on earth we call home. The world just gets a little smaller each day, so go green. I did paint my house green one time but changed it to earth tones, I guess green is also an earth tone and blue for the water, etc

Dale - We had a great visit with the grandkids. We gave them new bicycles, they were so surprised and rode until after dark; loaded them into the back of the pick up around ten o'clock and headed for home. They are glad to be out for summer vacation.

I've been dragging all day. Will get to those phto's first chance I get. I'm running behind. Since the lawn is so torn up I decided to upgrade the sprinkler system while I was at it so really have my hands full. Seems like everyone under the sun is calling to book an inspection; I should not complain. Like Ceil says, come home, write your reports and if you have time before dark work for an hour and you'll get it done. I just want to get it done.....

What happened to your blog page, it is back to the old, plain that you had before we had the new background? You must be working on a new one.

Take care.

Howdy Carl and Ceil

Glad to see ya.

Carl - When ever ya have the time my friend. I'm the same way, I always want to get it done.

I lost my blog skin, when I added the Amber Alert Ticker up top there to my blog.

I'll have it back. Can't do it tonight though.

Buy the way Carl congrats on being taged to do a MeMe by Ricki.

God Bless The U.S.A.

Dale I love to garden (and have been busy planting apparently delicious plants for the neighborhood deer to eat!) But, small price to pay when we can sip our coffee on the patio, and enjoy nature. The weather is perfect!

JUN

2008

Dale, thanks for the reminder, good info. Hey how did Dillo get along with the new one I sent you? Did you like him? Liz

Howdy Debbie

Glad to see ya my friend!

I do the same garden for wildlife, It is a small price for our wlidlife brother's and sister's

__________________________________________________________________________

Howd Liz

Glad to have ya stop by for a visit my friend!

You are welcome Liz. They got along just fine.

I sure did, thank ya.

God Bless The U.S.A.

Dale - Wanted to see if you had your blog skin back up. Have someone coming on Thursday to start putting the fences back up. The new driveway is awesome; now have to work on pudding new heads, etc back into the sprinkler system. This is something Ceil and I can do ourself then back to work on the well house. Have the front finished and windows trimmed, three more sides to go. Once I get set up it moves pretty fast but this 100 degree weather slows you down.

Dale, this is absolutely a wonderful reminder that we need to spend less time "going green" and more time "being green". Summer is here and it's time to get outside. I often blog sitting out on my balcony overlooking Turtle Creek, it definitely inspires me to feel nature in the city. Thanks for the great post!

JUN

Hey Dale - This is Ceil. Just found out that it is Jud's Birthday and I know you would not want to miss sending her one of your beautiful flower arrangements. All is going well with Carl, he is just very busy right now; will get back to blogging soon.

Ceil

Great advice. It's pretty hard to get out and enjoy Mother Nature when you have all the comforts inside your home. Computers, TVs, phones, I-pods, AC...no bugs...well you get the picture. But NOTHING replaces or comes close to our beautiful earth which is more amazing than any computer that I've ever seen.

JUN

Hi Dale,

It has been a while since I have been by to visit. I was visiting another blog and read your entry stating that you had revamped your blog. I wanted to drop by and see the results. It is really looking great. Have a great summer and try to stay cool.

Awesome Dale - What happened to your Amber Alert?

I love the outdoors and we all need to spend more time there. It helps us to put things in perspective when we do. Have a great week. :)

I love the outdoors, but we are plagued with Texas sized mosquitos and lately 100+ % humidity, and unusually hot days, way too early in the season for that.

JUN

Howdy Don

Sorry for missing and for being late with a reply to your fine comment.

Yes we all do need to be more kind and gentle to Mother Earth, thats for sure.

Green and blue are part of Mother Earth.

God Bless The U.S.A.

Howdy Carl and Ceil

I am very glad to see Y'all!

I have goten so behind in with a reply to folk's on this here post, I am so sorry for it.

I'll reply to your last 3 comments here, I hope that is ok.

Had to print it out so I don't miss anyone, like I did before.

Carl - As you know I have my blog skin back now. Glad to know Y'all got your fences back up. I bit the new driveway dose look very awesome. My friend's you take care of your selves working in that 100 degree weather.

Ceil - Thank ya kindlly for tell me that it was Judi's Birthday. I know the both of ya are doing a lot of work on the ol hamestesd.

Carl and Ceil - So far can't get the Amber Alert and the blog skin to work together for some reason. But not giving up on doing it. Just got to keep working on it.

Howdy Steve

Thank ya for stopping by for a visit.

Sorry for being late with a reply to ya.

Thank ya for your very kind words. Being out with Mother Earth and all she offers us is always good to do.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Howdy Wendy

Nice to have ya visit.

Sorry for repling to you late!

The one thing folk's need to do, is say we will give this time to our Mother Earth and all that she gives us so openlly. To just take a little time to give back to her, by helpping to keep her beautiful.

God Bless The U.S.A.

Howdy Derenda

Thank ya for stopping by to visit.

Heat dose not affect me attall.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Howdy Ricki

Glad to have ya visit.

It sure dose help to put things in perspective, when we take time to enjoy what Mother Earth has for us.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Howdy Cindy

Thank ya for comeing by to visit.

Will I know how the Grant State of Texas mosquitos can be, I have family down in Deer Park, Texas. And seen that my home State is Missouri, I sure know about 100+% humidity.

My frieend's down in Hill Country have been telling about the hot days Y'all are having.

It's a real hoot for me, when someone tells me it really hot up here.

God Bless The U.S.A.

Dale - People are growing up these days who are so removed from the land. One of the best things that can be done for preserving the environment is generating a true love of the countryside in children.

JUN

2008

Dale, I think that this should be this very first tip top tip in any Green handbook, in fact with out a love and appreciation of the great outdoors why would anyone want to go out of there way and make a change in their lifestyle to improve on nature. I wish every school had a garden, what a way for kids to learn!! I put my kids sandbox right next to my garden, they love bugs and know which ones are good for my garden and which one's they should move to outside of the fence (dang those slugs) Anyway!! Great post!! And thanks for the warm welcome on my first blog. speaking of kids I have to rush them off to school yikes....how time flys on a.c

You know Dale, I should have been a cave man ...I spend as much time outside as possible. We are probably one of the few folks in Texas that still sleep with windows open in summertime. I know it saves energy. Man was not ment to stay in a box all the time. :0)

JUN

2008

Dale - Just stopped by to check in and see how things were going. Haven't seen any new blogs from you and wondered what you were up to. It's 100 again today; just came in to rest. Ceil says we have to stay in until the cool of the evening and I might just do that since I'm behind on my office work. A nap sure woud be nice Maybe I'll take a nap and then do office work.

Take care and hope you are doing OK.

Did you fly your flag today?

Dale, great emphasis on the outdoors. Now even with outdoor kitchens the cooking is being brought outside.

Howdy Pam

Thank ya, for coming by to visit.

Yes we do need to teach children to love and show respect Mother Eearth.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Howdy Brooke

Thank ya, for stopping to visit.

Thank ya also for the very kind words.

It would be a very good thing, if every school had a garden of some kind so kids could learn how to take care of flowers and vegetables, and how to grow them.

You are welcome Brooke.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Howdy Trey

Thank ya for coming over for a visit.

Well talken about cave's, back in 1975 after I came home. I could not be around folk's, so I went to Colorado. Up in to the mountain's where most folk's would not go. I lived just like the old mountain men and Native American's did. I lived up there for two and half years just so I could get my head together, so I could be around folk's again.

You are 100% right we where not ment to live our lives in a box.

God Bless The U.S.A.

Howdy Carl

Glad to have ya visit my friend.

I would had some new ones posted but AR has been acting up this week. 12 times this week I would be making a comment to folk's, when I'ed upload my response it would say that I was not loged in. When I had been. I lost 3 post's that I was up loading. Tonight a really weird thing happen on here, everyone lost their blog skins. Then about 10 min. later the skins where back.

I am a doen fine, my friend. Thank ya for thinken of me.

You know me I fly my flag each and every day.

Now you and Ceil take care of your selves in that there heat, ya are geten.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Howdy Gary

Glad to have ya stop by for a visit.

Thank ya kindlly, everyone needs to take time to be one with Mother Earth in some way.

Even if just cooking outdoors.

God Bless The U.S.A.

Dale - It has been frustrating and takes so long for pages to come back up. Been experiencing the same with login. AR doing their best to get some of the glitches out so we need to be patient. I'm going to start doing some of my blogs in word just in case I loose it I won't have to type it over.

Dale, I'm hootin and hollerin for your blog! You are quite a character. Besides that, you really know your stuff and your Marketing is very original to say the least!

Hi Dale I felt as if you were talking about me. I do all the things you mentioned, I especially love working under a tree this time of year. It is so important to appreciate the things around us.

JUN

2008

Dale, I love to work in the yard and rescued a lot of 'Charlie Brown' plants from Lowe's this weekend. I'm nursing them back to life before I plant. There's nothing like getting your hands in the dirt.

P.S. I miss you!

JUN

I totally agree and I just love your picture, signature, and blog! I am going to have to press the subscribe button once I get done typing. Thanks for sharing your ideas!!

JUN

2008

I like your reminders. If more people thought this way we would all be better off.

Dale...

I love that line, "sit lightly on the land"! Great thoughts, we all need our retreat into nature to keep our ballance. L

Dale - We have seen Ms. Liz retreat over at her lake house that she showed on one of her blogs. I would stay there forever and never go back to the busy city.

Just came by to check on you and to see if you had any new blogs for me to read. Catch you later. I think Ms. Liz has a new blog, I'll go look for hers.

JUN

2008

Dale, thanks for all of the comments. I like how you use the highlighted phrase/motto in your posts. Currently, I have been working on making my backyard more livable, since my daughter has to be out there all the time. It use to be that I was puttering around the garden alone, but now the entire family is out there with me. Even an urban scene can inspire you to be green.

Dale, with costs going sky high for traveling and gas prices out of sight more and more people should do exactly that...prepare your own backyard for a get-a-way and enjoy mother nature.

Thanks for the reminder Dale! It is great to get outside and ejoy nature...especially in the summer!

Sorry for taken so long to get back to Y'all

Now that AR is not acking up any more, I can get caught up.

Thank you Hello! I just had to check out your post... you have so many it is taking me a few days to get to all of them. This post touches my heart because I did not think about what I put down my hosehold drains until I move out to the country and had a septic system and spring water. Great post... nature makes you want to be kinder to the world we live in. Have a good evening! Brenda :) P.S. how do I link one post to the other post? You are going to start charging me... Thanks in advance :)

Howdy Brenda

I'm always glad to have you stop by to visit, and leave a comment. At my little ol Blogging Homestead, my friend.

One thing I'll never do it take a post down. ifen I did it would herd folk's that were so kind to leave a comment on them. If a post is deleted folk's would that commented would lose their comment points.

You sure are right thats it's important for folk's, to think about what they are doing to Mother Earth. We are only borrowing her for the time we are here.
