    Old Time Gardens Don’t Work Today!
    Cheryl J. Shenkle
    August 11, 2021
    Old time gardens succeeded by development of a fresh patch of soil every couple of years, loads of manure from the family barnyard animals and having a host of kids to plant, weed and water while Grandpa, Mom and Dad called the shots on fertilizing and harvesting. How many of us today have even a fraction of the necessary ingredients for success? It took an intense amount of work and skills. Failure wasn’t an option because the result was an unsatisfied belly in the winter when the pantry got bare.
    In today’s gardens, while we envision those treasured memories, we buy and plant way too many seeds. We feel we can still achieve the same results with simple determination.  When strong muscles, ignorance of Mother Nature’s demands and time constraints collide, it results in poor crops, wasted time and eventually, mental and physical pain. 
    By late July the huge garden that was eagerly but poorly planted in the spring became a nightmare of weeds, watering and fertilizer demands about which we knew very little.  Physical injuries and the fact of simply growing older began to prove troublesome.  Who needed all those sickly vegetables after all? 
    Enter the supermarket!  With it came higher food costs, older foods, poorer nutrition, less healthy outdoor time, chemically contaminated food and loss of a healthy link to food.  I thought I had won a better life with less work not knowing what my family and I were risking.  There wasn’t even a way to fix it that I could imagine or manage.
    Becoming a Master Gardener was the breath of fresh, workable ideas that I desperately needed.  How could I not have known all the information Penn State had to share, but where was I to learn it since my grandparents had passed away and my parents had been too busy at jobs to garden. I had few proper garden tools and no knowledge of new efficient and realistic gardening methods.
    I quickly found that I had to stop relying on old methods and start putting my mind where my time and muscle used to be.  I laid out a plot plan of our two acres and addressed the structure of a properly located garden.  We had very dry spots, soggy spots, shade, sun, brush-filled areas, disorganization everywhere and I was barely mobile due to severe joint problems.  I bought a used Golf Cart, a small pull-behind wagon, and took everything I needed to the garden where I could work for as long as I chose and have the luxury of a ride back to the house when I got tired!  Plus, I had the Master Gardener Manual!!
    What are the tricks of the trade to avoid pain while gardening?
    Ergonomics are important to anyone who gardens, particularly those who have health problems or who are getting older.  Young adults would be smart to learn about the correct postures and movements of life. Learn to use tools that fit your body and won’t hurt it. Start small and grow larger gardens each year as you become more accomplished and experienced. Your first garden should be very small and prepared properly a year ahead of time, then soil tested by Penn State in the fall. Learn the difference between a garden guess, a sales pitch and a priceless piece of gardening information.  Start out by first knowing how to succeed. Learn how your garden should look and visit it every day, preferably in the morning and late evening.  Use your walk to stretch, loosen up your muscles and ease your mind.  Be sure to have ergonomic tools at hand, located right where you need them.  Don’t waste energy hauling them from one area to another by hand. Learn the easiest way to do every job in the garden, whether it be posture and balance, a balanced extended tool or when to simply take a break and stop overuse of your body in time to prevent pain. Put a comfy seat near the garden and pace yourself so your gardening experience remains fun and doable.  Take a huge container of water to keep yourself hydrated. Better yet, make your own Haymakers Punch.  Snack directly from your crops for better health and awareness of when crops are ready to pick. Find a way to keep water, fertilizers, tools and equipment right at the garden.  Call the Master Gardener Garden Hotline at your county Extension office. It’s a service of your state agricultural university, which in Pennsylvania is Penn State University.  It’s not a secret that every county provides excellent Horticultural assistance, and it’s all free through trained volunteers.  Come and get it, Master Gardeners are waiting to answer your questions. Think of becoming a Master Gardener as a lifetime experience.  It’s an investment that will net you all of your gardening dreams and which will allow you to share it with others who are searching also.  Happy gardening with much less pain and much more success!

    This is Joe Biden’s America.
    40% of illegal aliens being bused to Laredo, Texas have tested positive for Covid-19.

    The Washington Examiner reported:
    The city of Laredo, Texas, has refused to take in migrants who have been bused in from elsewhere on the border after discovering 40% of them tested positive for the coronavirus, according to two local government officials.

    That was very high,” Laredo Mayor Pete Saenz said in an interview, referring to the infection rate among migrants dropped off by the Border Patrol last week. Laredo health authority, Dr. Victor Trevino, confirmed the numbers.
    Concerned that migrants arriving in Laredo would further strain hospital resources, Laredo officials contracted private bus companies to transport migrants arriving from the Rio Grande Valley to larger cities across the state. By not admitting migrants on the McAllen buses, the city is not required to test them for the coronavirus and could forward the families elsewhere. Those who test positive cannot travel and must be quarantined for 10 days, a situation Saenz wanted to evade to avoid migrant overflow.
    Last week it was reported that 15% of illegal aliens released from ICE custody in McAllen, Texas were infected with Covid.
    The city of McAllen told Fox News that the federal government is releasing “an alarming number of immigrants into McAllen, and that the feds aren’t testing them for COVID.”
    Meanwhile Joe Biden is blaming rising Covid cases on unvaccinated Americans.

    SHOCKING: 2,500+ VAERS Reports Of Bell's Palsy/Facial Paralysis After Controversial "Vaccines"
    Narrator: There are over 500,000 cases in the VAERS system concerning the COVID-19 vaccines. In this video, I want to show you how many there are for people having Bell's Palsy. In my preliminary search, I found over 2500 examples of this. These vaccines have only been on the market for eight months. Bell's Palsy is a facial muscle weakness or paralysis. Oftentimes, people can't smile normally, or blink their eyes normally. A lot of times it makes drinking difficult. So in this video, I just wanted to toggle through all the different cases of people very much inconvenienced and worse by onset of Bell's Palsy after their vaccines. Now, the Canadian regulators just added Bell's Palsy as a possible side effect for the Pfizer vaccines. And there seem to be a ton of examples in the VAERS database. Again, here's 2500 that I found in this video, one every five frames. I'll let you make up your own mind what you think about this, but everybody has the right to refuse this or any other medical treatment.

    SAVE AMERICA
    PRESIDENT DONALD J. TRUMP
    AUGUST 7, 2021
    BEDMINSTER, NJ
    Statement by Donald J. Trump, 45th President of the United States of America
    Joe Biden’s infrastructure bill is a disgrace. If Mitch McConnell was smart, which we’ve seen no evidence of, he would use the debt ceiling card to negotiate a good infrastructure package. 
    This is a 2,700 page bill that no one could have possibly read—they would have needed to take speed reading courses. It is a gift to the Democrat Party, compliments of Mitch McConnell and some RINOs, who have no idea what they are doing. There is very little on infrastructure in all of those pages. Instead, they track your driving so they can tax you. It is Joe Biden’s form of a gas tax but far bigger, far higher and, mark my words, far worse. They want to track you everywhere you go and watch everything you do!
    Joe Biden’s infrastructure bill will be used against the Republican Party in the upcoming elections in 2022 and 2024. It will be very hard for me to endorse anyone foolish enough to vote in favor of this deal. 
    The good news is that the progressive wing in the Democrat Party will lose all credibility with this approval. Additionally, Kevin McCarthy and Republican House members seem to be against the bill. If it can’t be killed in the Senate, maybe it dies in the House!
    Nancy Pelosi and the Democrats understand that this is the way to get the horrendous $3.5 trillion, actually $5 trillion, Green New Deal bill done in the House. Mitch is playing right into Nancy’s hands, not to mention the fact Chuck Schumer is already going around saying this is a big victory for the Democrats. Whether it’s the House or the Senate, think twice before you approve this terrible deal. Republicans should wait until after the Midterms when they will gain all the strength they’ll need to make a good deal, but remember, you already have the card, it’s called the debt ceiling, which the Democrats threatened us with constantly.

    I shared this earlier but I got some INFO earlier that there is NOW a Whistle Blower from January 6th Capital ATTACK who is a BIG NAME in the democratic party.
    Also I found out yesterday that Ashley Babbitt was cremated within 48 hours of her death.  >>> HER FAMILY IS NUTS or SOMETHING JUST AIN'T RIGHT!
    From what I have read from different sources,  there is a 95% she is still alive.
