Thank you.

Where I live people tend to go with dull drab colors on everything.
You see tan and browns everywhere.
When I was in Europe everything had bright colors they were everywhere.

The closest I could get to turquoise was a stain they mixed called Gettysburg by BEHR.

Okay can some of you guys come up with an idea on what to do with 5 2X8 sheets of lattice?
Due to my change in plans I now have.
5 of those things.
2 treated 2X4x10's.
2 treated 2X4x8's.
And around 5 1X2X8's.

Are there more vining crops you could grow? I like Sweet Success cukes. I've always wanted to try some of the tiny personal-size melons. They are small enough to not fall off the vine when trellised.

I remember seeing a pic of the giant tree-sized hydroponic tomato plant that Epcot used to have. I've always wondered how close I could get to that.

Make a arched lattice and let clematis grow up it.

Put in a hot tub and build a screen around it.

Its light weight.
I might use some of it on my front porch to block out the annoying spot light from across the street.

Off and on it goes all night long.

Remember the jalapenos I had hanging up?
Many of them turned red and I made extra hot jelly out of them this morning.
I was so excited about doing it I didn't even finish one cup of coffee.
Here they are 8 1/2 pints of jalapeno jelly.

Sounds good but I had about 3 tablespoons left and I tried it on some left over hot spicy chicken I fried last night.
This stuff isn't going to last long.
