Somebody threw me for a loop this morning. I've been working to complete the First Scavenger Hunt (TM), and have been taking my time spacing out new threads so as not to overwhelm others on the site, and I wanted the threads to have meaning, and give me opinions on solutions/answers to questions that are relevant to me.

So I was up to 9 new threads created, and WHAM!

All of a sudden it says 10 and I'm officially a Pioneer (or should it be PIE-oneer?)

Because I got a piece of pie out of the deal, too.

That's why I'm posting this authentic, actual, verified, certified 10TH THREAD.

So I don't lose my pie or my PIE-oneer status.

See you on the forums!

Well done Jim, and thanks for your contributions!
It looks like the system counts all the threads you have made (one disappeared because it looked like a duplicate post) so it now thinks you have 11! Don't worry too much about it and keep posting!

Timothy,

That means a lot coming from you and your presence and knowledge here.  

Quite honestly, though I've studied permaculture extensively and have a bit of head knowledge about the principles, etc... I've barely got any dirt under my fingernails and that is exactly what I need and am hoping to attain.

I'll never inherit anything from Otis, I'm too old for that. But I'll be working on BBs until the day I die, this stuff is just so much fun. Maybe someone will want to inherit my intensive 3/4 acres or more if I buy neighboring properties. Who knows?

I just can't wait to to find someone around here who will let me move some serious earth with their bucket loader!

Nancy,

You're a Permie rock star. I appreciate the pat on the back.

Congratulations and enjoy the PIE!
 
Sure, he can talk to fish, but don't ask him what they say. You're better off reading a tiny ad:
