Dogs DO Eat Avocado!

LuAnn was scraping an avocado shell and Sable was just sitting there so alert, her way of begging.  LuAnn said, dogs don't eat avocado?  Her dog Alex ate carrots and we have all heard stories how dogs eat strange things.  Trixy loved corn and carried ears everywhere on this farm and yard.

So LuAnn let her taste the last bite of avocado and she started licking the spoon.  Hey Mikey, she likes it!  Dogs DO eat avocado!

Sable is a really good dog.  Sable is a really smart dog.  She missed me last week and about ate me up when I got home.  I know she isn't going to like 30 days apart so I sure hope Cozy Pets can tease the trucker who owns Rico to stay and play with Sable.  Those two dogs are a hoot, she almost forgets I am there when they are together.

I just wiped out a paragraph on this laptop.  My computer died the blue screen death so its going to the shop in a bit.  The same thing happened a year ago.  Brian works third shift and I don't want to wake him up.  Everything is saved on the G drive but I just remembered I better bring all my software.

Three more blogs and I am going to turn this over to Chimel.  I have written a few extra blogs for him but I am using up material as fast as I type it.  I like my MicroSoft keyboard so much better than this laptop and you know how I hate texting on the Droid.  That is no way for me to write a blog.

I am getting lots of questions about my posts from NNTC last week.  There is glyphosate showing up in soil and manure tests and farmers are asking what to do.  The structured water concept is raising tons of questions.  How little we know about the water we drink and spray!  We take water for granted!  You can a post about farm to plate by Bear's Fan on Crop Talk.  It is still on the first page at this writing.

I need to make sure we get everything ready as possible.  I am asking my friends to take me off their email lists for awhile.  We will only be reading personal email and texts to LuAnn after Friday night.  We have two vehicles to move, the dog to move so the bathroom remodeling crew can take over our house.  I've had the mail held and visited the sheriff and done about everything I can think of.  We have a list we keep adding to.  30 days is a long time.

I challenge all farmers to rethink everything you do.  Do you have enough calcium?  How much is your water reducing your spray?  Do you really need genetically modified seed?  Do you really want to spray tank cleaners to control your weeds?

That is about as simple as I can put it.  Just as simple as Sable eating avocado.

It won't be long until we will be seeing Sarah and Perry and our friends down under!

G'Day!...
