I'm trying my flowers from seeds this year. I ordered them from a magazine and bought some from WalMart.

I figured you would ask. I can't remember. It was a 2 seater. One in the front and one in the back.

That could be a Piper Cub or an Aeronca (Air Knocker". If he buys one, you get as many hours in it as you can. That is flying for the sheer enjoyment of it.

Native Plant Gardening: The sword fern is a beautiful, flexible and very low maintenance addition to the garden. It is appropriate for USDA zones 3-8.

This is good, I'm in Zone5 or 6, depending on the map so it should be okay here. :)

Looks like you did everything just right. I just found this.

Dividing Ferns: Often times, ferns such as Boston and sword outgrow their pots; then you have to divide or discard them. When it comes to dividing, ferns can take rather harsh treatment. In some cases, you may have to use considerable force to remove the plant from the pot. Once it's free, use a sharp, long-bladed knife to halve or quarter the root ball. Then, pull each quarter or half apart so you can spread the roots in the new soil. The main requirements after dividing are to water the roots and new soil thoroughly and to provide a humid atmosphere by misting the first few weeks.

Ok, this is getting to be like shoeing a horse. I think I have enough info now and need to stop looking:) Too much gets confusing. I'm going with what I've learned and hoping for the best:)

My first airplane ride was in a Piper Cub with floats. That was all it took ... I was hooked. My log book has five hours of flying an Aeronca Chief, (Air-Knocker). It had a hand start 65 horsepower engine and no electrics at all.

I told my dad that I guess I needed to buy a book and learn about planes. He's kind of a fly by the seat of your pants guy. He told" you don't need any books. If you got books you don't need an instructor".

LOL! Get an instructor and the books, do it right. I tried to teach myself to fly in an ultralight, that was a bad idea.....

Sending you a PM shortly

They are fun to fly but I had no desire to be a chopper pilot.

Flight time is expensive in choppers, much more than airplanes.

That is how I got my flight time in a chopper too. I could fly it in a straght line ok but did not get the hang of hovering. Needed more time to learn that part.

Yes, please - no more directions :) I never remember the important parts and end up making a mess of everything. I can handle water, fertilize, mulch. Past that, not a thing.
