Did she care?

Dogs don’t care about TV unles they’re on it; culverts are much more fun.
Yellow Dog was curious enough
to sniff around the TV camera,
but mostly they sniffed under things, laid in the dirt, and sat in the doggie fort.
Here’s a video. The incessant hissing is what that tiny natural gas pipeline station for a mere 9-inch pipeline sounds like 24/7, 365 days a year.

Saturday, February 6th, South Georgia Growing Local at Pine Grove Middle School!
As Scott James said on
Talk 92.1FM Tuesday:
“I don’t know if people fully realize… what kind of wave is overtaking us here in south Georgia, and in Georgia in general, what kind of growing local wave!”
Gretchen said it’s also about health: we’ve got people here who can’t walk up stairs to work, and eating better helps people be more healthy.

Video: “This has really turned into a thing” –Chris Beckham about South Georgia Growing Local to Gretchen Quarterman on WVGA 105.9 FM 2016-01-20 @ SOGALO16
You can
register today for South Georgia Growing Local 2016,
to be held all day Saturday February 6th at Pine Grove Middle School.
Chris Beckham was struck by the variety: corn, chicken, fruits, goats, soap, composting, water, worms, solar power!
So many different topics in six tracks, “but all indigenous to South Georgia.”
Gretchen replied,
Indeed, when this conference started six years ago, we just had two tracks. One was about cooking, and one was about growing, pest control, and fertilizing, and how to have your garden be successful in the special conditions of south Georgia and north Florida. Because our conditions here are different than they are in north Georgia or on the coast, or farther south in Florida where it never freezes. We sort of have a very special environment here, and so this conference is geared towards that.
Lots of new and repeat talks; see the Continue reading
