Mosquito Repellents
This repellent works! It’s available on Amazon and at their website for about $5.50. I used to have bromeliads but they acted like little homes for mosquitos because they’d fill up with water. Standing water is the biggest breeding ground for mosquitoes. Bats love to eat mosquitoes.…See More

You want to fall in love all over again? And again? And again? Head out to Montana! I went last week and I am still reeling from it!
Let's begin with an annual event I bet will be a fantastic time. It's The Montana Folk Festival . There's a preview on Montana Public Radio right about…

I was up in Montana last week. I saw trucks full of trees pass by all day, every day.
It reminded me of this great idea. It’s a towel bin! It’s one small way to stop using…

Hey Mike - it was wonderful to meet you and share a "Texas-sized breakfast". I cant wait to see what might come from you visit in Portland...maybe setting up shop:). Anyway, thanks for your kindness and genuine spirit!

Hi Mike, thanks for sending me that article. I realised the situation was getting pretty bad, but not to that extent. I have a BBC news app on my phone that is my main source of news at the moment, and there is a section specific to Latin America, but none of this has even had a mention. Just goes to show that even large, international news sources are following the Correa line, which is appalling.
It's hard to believe how far its escalated. I fell in love with Ecuador when I was there and its awful to see what's happening to it. Not sure what we can do to help other than trying to make more people aware?

Thank you so much for introducing me to your wonderful Zoobird, Mike I am so lucky that I met you at the hostel. Please keep feeding me more precious information about Portland and life.

Hi Mike! I know, our Galapagos trip really was wonderful wasn't it? It's such a shame what's happening there at the moment, to think that the next generation might not get to see what we did. What horrifies me the most is how little the world seems to care, it's been a week and still not even a mention in any of the news here.
Hopefully we can get some support behind the Galapagenos!
Thanks for sharing this page with me, it looks like an interesting space, but it might take me a while to figure out how to use it properly! :P

Thanks, Michael! I followed links from the pics of the stingrays, but did that mostly because I liked what you said about yourself. I love to have similar birds "in my space". :-)

Several years ago a gathering of international stone masons met in Barre Vt for a weeklong symposium. I'm standing under an arch built by a novice so I couldn't wait for the race which started under the arch to begin.
Building walls without mortar is my new passion. The long standing passion that brought me to this site is bicycling. Are there any cycle savvy members here?

Hey brother! I joined this crazy site just to try to tell you about Nahko's tuning for "Black as the Night"....it is OPEN D DADF#AD and then just strum the drone open, and use an E shape for the other main chord. Watch his hands in the vid once you tune to Open D and you'll grasp it real quick. Let me know if you have questions! I BELIEVE IN THE GOOD THINGS COMIN'....
