Evening all
Many posts back, i posted some pix of the Osage Orange “fruit” that is now in growth here in Maryland. Here’s a reminder of what the fruit looks like up in the trees:

And here’s the pulpy/seedy inside. Not much to eat, but plenty of seeds.

Evening all - I'm a bit late popping in.
Weather has been lovely today sunny but not too hot.
Went for a lovely forest walk with a few friends and dogs.
Was in the valley next to the one that was burnt last month.
It was sad to see the logging trucks passing with all the burnt trees that had to be felled .
The have to make it safe for the mountain bikers and walkers who use the area and so that they can start re planting with native trees.
Hope you are all well and having a good Weds.
Not see you tomorrow!
Nos Da.
Good afternoon my friends!! Today I worked with a customer that pumps oil in one of the last remaining fire-flood zones in the US.. he is a long time customer & a friend... ANYWAY, he pointed out a large tree on the property that was HEAVY with fruit. He said the deer work it over. It was a min pear tree ( my name, not scientific) the pears were the size of figs! He told me that in the winter I could transplant some of the smaller ones because it populates quickly.. the main tree is huge.. I’m so excited (even though I’ll probably kill it) lol..
Just doesn’t take much for me[emoji6]
Wishing you all a pleasant evening!
Thanks, Lyn.Will Google it Ed, to see what comes up in my area.
You're welcome Ed.Thanks, Lyn.
I've ordered one from Malaysia again. But this time through Ebay so I have some kind of assurance that I'll actually get it.
I ordered one from an early Corolla. Not exactly the same. It'll require some cutting and welding. But I'll be done with it.
I appreciate the gesture.
The KP61 was also known as the STARLET. After 1984 it became front wheel drive, and in my opinion, very boring. (And no longer imported here anyway)You're welcome Ed.
Was going to ask you if the car was also known as a Starlight but as you seem to have found the part it doesn't matter now.
Hope it arrives without any problems.
Have a good day.
Do people actually eat it? They sell something like that at florists here, saying though that it’s for decoration only. Might be another type of green balls, of course. A plant is a plant is a plant for me... [emoji85][emoji23]
So, would you plant it for the deer?Good luck with it
Glad your life is complete once again.
My husband is away now — on and off for the entire month. We’ve booked a ton of play dates. At my place and under my responsibility, of course.![]()
Good morning CDRers the end of another week fast approaching!
I am going to try to cram all the things I've been putting off all holiday into the next few days!
Also have visitors for weekend so will be very busy.
Off to see Evita tomorrow night and then a blues band on Sat night and goodness knows what in between.
But meanwhile better make a start on my 'to do' list.
Have a good Thursday and not see you later.

Going back to my county road widening project -
Many years ago, when I started a turtle club in my town, one of the charter members was an older couple who attended every meeting. We got to be friends of sorts. They are very nice people. Come to find out, his son has a house just around the corner and across the street from me. Before he retired, the son was in some branch of local government, so is familiar with the ins and outs involved with this road widening thing-a-ma-bob. Because of my friendship with his parents, he has taken me under his wing, so to speak, and has told me he is happy to be my advocate.
So far he has sent a couple emails to the county requesting a larger version of the site map, and scheduled an appointment for the county to come out tomorrow morning to re-survey my property with my driveway in mind.
I feel so much more settled, knowing I have someone in my corner. I was starting to become a nervous wreck.
This a.m. when I was driving home from shopping I saw that the power company has started replacing poles further down the street from me - at the beginning of the project.
I'll be so glad when this is all settled and I can breathe again.







Never disturb a sleeping cat.
These cars have been sold in Germany too. Right ? Maybe in Germany there are still parts to get.Thanks, Lyn.
