I have seen this cat twice this week early morning between 7 and 7:30 AM in the south end. It is a large ginger cat with white on the tail. He walked up River R...d., South and turn the corner to walk up Southlawn and sat under this car. He may be an outdoor cat as he seemed quite calm but I thought I would post just in case someone is missing him.Sorry the picture isn’t better but I couldn’t get close because my dogs were going nuts!

Have you seen these plants? They are called Broadleaf or Broadleaf Plantain It grows especially well in poor, rocky soil (such as driveways) and is often seen a...longside dandelion. More often than not, you will see plantain growing in gravel pits and construction sites as nature seeks to regenerate the soil. Introduced to North America in the 1600s, it was once called White Man’s Foot by the Native Americans who witnessed that where the Europeans tread and disrupted the soil, plantain sprung up. Plantain has often been the go-to remedy for hikers plagued by mosquitos. Because it draws toxins from the body with its astringent nature, plantain may be crushed (or chewed) and placed as a poultice directly over the site of bee stings, bug bites, acne, slivers, glass splinters, or rashes. Bandage the area and allow the plantain to work its magic for 4-12 hours. Plantain may also be used to create a balm for emergency kits, or an infusion used as a skin or general wash. It is also a notable, soothing remedy for hemorrhoids.Plantain is renowned for its healing effect on the digestive system. This is especially useful for anyone who has been damaged by antibiotics, anti-inflammatory or pain medications, food allergies, or Celiac disease. Both leaves and seeds specifically target the digestive system for healing. The leaves may be steeped as tea, added to soups, or dried with a sauce similar to kale chips. The seeds a type of psyllium can be ground or soaked for bulk mucilage or absorbable fibre, which, consumed before meals, may help with weight loss. Because plantain is a gentle expectorant and high in silica, an infusion can be helpful for lung problems, coughs, and colds. Plantain is almost a panacea for the human body, treating everything from all menstrual difficulties, all digestive issues, to nearly all skin complaints, and even arthritis. Add to salads, chew to ease thirst, or enjoy in stir fries. This versatile wild vegetable will keep you in good health for years to come! See more

The tin can garden bees I made! The garden is a brand new one, freshly planted with bee balm, poppies and bluebells Sorry...I forgot to post the pic!! ...I’m so glad you all like my bees! I took a few more photos to help you make some! Also, I painted the cans with yellow spray paint. The stripes are black gorilla tape but you could hand paint them also. The eyes are spray painted bottle caps with black sticky back foam pupils. The paint was sealed with a UV clear coat. The wings are cut from an opaque milk jug. I used E6000 to glue on the wings and eyes. The posts are threaded rods from the hardware store! Happy crafting!! See more
