    Yes. I remember when the Cherry name was an honorable name.  I would hope this for  most of them has not changed.  They were good people.

    Dozens of employees walked out from a bar and restaurant establishment in Gettysburg, Pennsylvania after the owner created a menu which featured drinks named after racial terms. According to the Gettysburg Times, at least 25 employees left when Donald Hoffman, owner of Mela Kitchen at Jack’s Hard Cider, decided to serve oddly-named cocktails in the theatre that operates out of the same site.
     
    Many of the employees who expressed their frustration on social media said Hoffman wanted them to serve drinks with names such as “The Caucasian” and “The Negro.”
    I feel so sorry for these cupcakes. Some one hand them a box of Kleenex or a picture of their mother for comfort.

    On Tuesday, FBI Director Christopher Wray told Fox News the COVID-19 pandemic was likely caused by a lab leak in Wuhan, China, a theory that was initially dubbed as a conspiracy. This followed a similar analysis from the Department of Energy.
     
    Remember those 5 words. They worked to get liberals elected and it is too late to go back and make a wrong a right. Time marches on, just lie long enough to get what you want and what you want will last as long as the booze tax laid on the people of PA to pay for the Johnstown Flood. 
    There will come a time when the last two crooked elections gets revisited and when the real truth comes out the history will read, initially dubbed as a conspiracy.
    But it will be too late won't it???? The Liberals will have completely destroyed this country.

    Common Summer Pest Questions and Answers
    Cheryl J. Shenkle Jefferson County Master Gardener Coordinator
    July 2022
     
     What pest pulls a plant out of the ground and digs a hole where the plant was? Omnivorous pests such as skunks will pull/dig a newly planted plant from the ground and leave it whole in search of the organic fertilizers such as blood, fish or bone meal in the soil of the plant.  When using it, add a commercial animal repellent or cayenne pepper to the area immediately around the plant and also in the hole.  You can even make your own hot repellent spray.  Don’t give up on the organics!
     What takes small bites out of my tomatoes and vegetables? Odds are it is a squirrel, groundhog or other small animal in search of a cool refreshing drink!  If the weather has been dry and there is not a nearby source of water for wild animals, they instinctively look for juicy plants.  Vegetables fill the bill nicely.  Remember how good watermelon tastes on a hot summer day?  Create a small pool of some sort in a location away from the garden where wild critters can get fresh water daily.  Even a ground level birdbath will work.  Get out the trail cam and enjoy the visitors.
     How does a groundhog get into a high fenced garden?  Easy, they simply climb over.  Allow the fence to move at the top one foot so it sways or flops when they try to climb.  They need sturdy footing when trying to go over the top.
    Should I feed the birds in the summer? Absolutely not!  Like deer, they have lots of natural organic food available as soon as the tree buds develop.  Bird seed is NOT organic, nor is it balanced for the health of the different birds.  Birds need protein to raise their babies and you want them to eat bugs and weed seeds.  Teach them to eat the natural food around them while it is available, and don’t put out a feeder till after the migratory birds are gone for the winter.  Remember, out with the winter birds, and in when the tree buds develop.  Diseases are also spread by migratory birds, so feeders at the wrong time of year can kill the birds you want to watch. The birds know when to come and go so don’t upset their digestion or native patterns by putting out an unhealthy buffet at the wrong time of year.  Unfrozen water is another story entirely.  Clean fresh water is a desperately needed staple at all times of the year.  Heated bird baths and summer fountains will bring birds to entertain you while not harming them.  Pests?  Bear, deer and squirrels love birdseed. Hint!  Always add cayenne pepper to your birdseed.  It does not harm the birds.
     Mice!  They also come looking for food and water.  Sink a 5 gallon bucket into the ground filled with about 3 inches of water and a handful of grain.  Cover with a piece of 2 x 4 welded wire to keep other animals out. Check it twice a day to remove satisfyingly dead mice. How do I get rid of Bats.  I hesitate to add them to this article because they are truly not pests!  They are beneficial mammals that we need in areas where there are mosquitos.  However, they roost in high sheltered locations to sleep and be safe from predators.  If they are in an enclosed building or your attic, then watch for where they enter or exit in the evening.  Place an excluder at that hole or crack so they can go out, but not get back in.  Their droppings can also cause disease, ceiling collapse and odors you don’t want to deal with.  Save the bats by providing night scented gardens, bat houses and if one gets into your house, simply open the windows and outer doors to that area, and leave so you don’t distract them while they escape.  They are not a problem, but again, by not dealing with them properly, you are helping destroy their natural habits.  If you don’t like truly dangerous mosquitoes, then properly attract bats and enjoy the night flights! How do I keep slugs, snails and earwigs from destroying my garden at night? Place short pieces of wet lumber in your garden between the rows in the evening.  As soon as the temperature rises in the morning, lift each board and flick the attached insects into a wide container of soapy water. You will find fewer and fewer every day.
    Japanese Beetles.  The traps do work, but put them at a distance well away from the garden and fruiting plants.  Take a small bucket with shallow soapy water into the gardens several times a day.  Place the bucket under the beetles and knock them off into soapy water.  It’s fun to keep a count or make it a contest for the grandkids.  Spreading Milky Spore lightly all around the yard will create a death zone underground to kill the grubs before they hatch, but it is a little expensive.  It is a living organism that will spread till it completely creates a mat and will last for many years.  If you find skunks digging holes in your lawn at night, grubs are probably what they are hunting for.
    Carpenter Bees!  Just paint any wood that they are intent on burrowing into, but do it early in the spring so you stop all egg laying by not letting the first mating pair get a family started.

    Everyone who uses State Farm Insurance will have to call and declare war on the company itself.  It's not the agents, it's the corporate nitwits on the Board of Directors who are probably bowing to coercion from government cronies.  
    These are KIDS who have no idea of what a perversion that is being perpetrated on them and will easily be swayed into ungodly behavior just because it looks like everyone is into it!
    As one who has had family members from all the past generations right to the present, I can tell you that we love these people as long as they practice polite social behavior, but will get a boot to the rear from the family for spreading the act. We are polite and respectful, but just as we Heterosexual family members do not flaunt our very private actions in front of any and all kids, neither should any other sexual action be addressed to them, particularly from strangers!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    2-Year-Old Defies The Odds, Beats Cancer And Rings The Bell On Her Birthday
    Doctors didn't believe Faith would make it to her first birthday but two years later, she's cancer-free.January 21, 2021 at 3:28 am Filed Under:cancer, Full Trisomy 18, Local TV, Pittsburgh News, UPMC Children's Hospital, Wilms Tumor   By: KDKA-TV News Staff
    PITTSBURGH (KDKA) – It was a little over two years ago when Faith was born and doctors diagnosed her with Full Trisomy 18.
      Full Trisomy 18 is a condition that causes a baby’s organs to develop in an abnormal way due to having an extra chromosome in some or all of their body’s cells.
    When that diagnosis was handed down, she was given at best, a 10% chance of survival.
    The odds said she would not see her first birthday.
    Faith defied those odds and made it to January 2020.
    Unfortunately, months later in August, Faith and her family were handed more bad news.
    She was then diagnosed with cancer when an abdominal ultrasound revealed a 2-inch tumor on her left kidney and lesions on both kidneys if left untreated.
    Thanks to the faith of the family and the help of Dr. Julia Meade at UPMC Children’s Hospital, five treatments later, Faith the tumor had disappeared.
    Even after those treatments, Faith’s battle was not over.
    She went through dehydration, a UTI that turned septic, and other maladies, but again, Faith overcame.
    It was January 15, 2021, that Faith had defied the odds one last time.
    At 2-years-old, she completed her final chemotherapy treatment and rang the bell at UPMC Children’s.
    “Not only did Faith defy the odds once again by turning 2-years-old, but she also proved that there is power in prayer by completing her final chemo treatment in the war against Wilms Tumor,” Faith’s mother Brandi wrote in a Facebook post.
    You can watch the full video of Faith and her family ringing the bell on UPMC Children’s Hospital Of Pittsburgh’s Facebook page.                               https://pittsburgh.cbslocal.com/2021/01/21/faith-and-family-defy-odds-beat-cancer/

    She is doing ok. Getting teeth in 1 or 2 at a time makes an unhappy Faith & mommy, but mommy puts real vanilla on her gums & makes a happy kid!!
    She is still having 3 therapist come to the house a week to work with her speech, muscles, & sitting/rolling/standing. All 3 ladies are wonderful with Faith, Brandi, Deryk, & the Midget. They all spend a few moments playing with big sister Midgy & her ball, lol.
    With this Coronavirus, they are going to be as vigilant as they were when Faith came home. This virus can easily kill Faith because of her weakened immune system.

    Thank you, to everyone who has followed along with Faith Marie’s journey to reach a year old!! The majority of us learned what Trisomy 18 is. We also learned that “Trisomy 18 is a Diagnosis, Not a Prognosis.” We have no idea what the future holds, we will go day by day. Everything is in God’s Hands, His plans & His time. 🙏🏻💜🙏🏻
