Baldeagle - Welcome! :)
Hi,Kimberly. I guess I have my best luck with Sweet Corn and Tomatoes, the worst with onions. At the good old age of 84, that is this coming Oct., I have more energy plucking the keys and mouse of the computer than in hoeing weeds and other garden activities. I have owned a computer for just 2 years, as of Sept. 15, and seemed to have fouled up more times that should be expected. But that probably means I am sticking my nose in where caution would advise otherwise.
I am not a camera fiend but I do enjoy taking pictures. I am taking an online course in Digital Photography Output wherein the Instructor is performing many editing features on pictures he took of his family a few years ago. Very informative, I just need to get off my lazy fanny and practise what he is preaching.
Thanks for the Welcoming. I have enjoyed reading the many problems, and solutions, that other members have presented.
Welcome Baldeagle, I hope to be going strong when I get to be your age. Taking computer related classes is great, obviously you are not planning to check out any time soon! I found a great tool for easier gardening..... it is a stirrup hoe or scuffle hoe, it sure makes getting after those weeds easier than with a regular hoe, it cuts them off just below ground level with just a forward and back motion, you just rub it along the ground. Everybody should have one of these things. I hope we can reinspire you to action. I hope you enjoy the fun and knowledge here, there are lots of nice folks who grow just about everything. What part of the country do you live in?
Welcome Baldeagle!
Baldeagle - wow, eighty four years young and just getting into computers? That's TERRIFIC! I guess Lotusblossom has no excuse...Right, mom?? ;)
Mary, I've got to get one of those scuffle hoes! I wondered what those were called, thanks.
Kim, I found mine at a hardware store for about $20. If they don't have one, ask to look at their catalog that they order from and maybe you will find one there and they could order it for you.
AT LAST! Some one older than me! Welcome to the Garden, baldeagle...from and oldster in AZ..o

Oh, BaldEagle, I must snatch you and bring you to visit my grandparents! They love gardening and I just cannot convince them to get or even try a computer!!! I need some good selling strategies for them ~ what would you say? They are a tough sell!
BTW, a warm welcome to DavesGarden :)
And happy (belated) birthday!
