I'm just going to wait til it gets a little warmer and see how things run before I start messing with it.

Sea Foam?
I was reading a post put up by someone who was having trouble keeping his lawnmower running. It would start, then quit. He wanted some advice. Now, let me say up front, I have years of lawnmower work. I've cut and trimmed and cleaned up grass and weeds etc for years here on Tillotson and at the ...
One thing I hope goes away for good

Always something new
Now here is a story headline I did not expect. A new definition of Spring. "Today Is the First Day of Meteorological Spring" I have no idea what this even means and it showed up with another story about Daylight... Continue reading

I believe you're correct Frank. The Willoughby's, were lifetime members of Holy Cross and the Schultze's I think,may have Willoughby family connection. I do know Carl's daughter Lisa and her son Jacob work there every day.

Dale will build it!
Dale and I decided it was too nice a day to sit around the house and headed over to the Willoughby Farm in Collinsville. This is a fantastic place, a farm right in the middle of the city, and laid out as it might have been in the 1930's and 40's. There are barns, animals of all types, old farm ...

Ours comes Sunday. I'm looking forward to trying it. I will let you know.

Air Fryer?
Well, I just ordered one more thing and for once it has nothing to do with cleaning. I've been curious about air fryers for some time and have looked at them online and read reviews many times. Once in Ace Hardware and another time in Walmart I looked at air fryers on the shelf but didn't buy. I...
A new hint!
Here is something I did not know. Shocking? Right? Well there are many many uses for those little moisture absorbing silica gel things we get in many items we buy. Most of the time we just toss them out. They... Continue reading

A shot in the arm!
We made it yesterday. Received our first Covid Vaccine and we are very thankful to Memorial Hospital and BJC who are doing a yeoman's job. They are so organized from the moment you drive into the parking lot to the... Continue reading

One good idea for opening those clamshell packages
Honestly this sounds like one of the best ideas yet. We've all fought to open something that came tucked into the hardest plastic ever and not for nothing named a clamshell. I've had to pry open these things for something... Continue reading

I totally agree Frank. They seemed to have had no plan unlike other counties.

The Vaccine hunt finally ends Monday
I've lost a lot of sleep recently worrying about the difficulty in getting the Covid Vaccine. I've tried so many places with no result and have had to listen to news reports of counties adding more and more people to the eligibility lists. I read posts from people who got their shots at one plac...
I just ordered one more thing
Since the Covid thing began and we have been pretty much tucked into our house, I've noticed a lot of things that our house needed and many it didn't. The ease of getting something has had me living the "immediate... Continue reading

What's missing on the roads lately?
The St. Louis area has had a lot of crashes due to the snow and other weather. But for some reason there has not been any mattresses or ladders falling onto the highways lately. A good thing. Continue reading

For the love of salt brine
With the big snowfall and single digit temperatures we've suffered through this week, one thing has helped us get around if we absolutely had to. That is the salt brine street departments and highway workers put on the roads. This... Continue reading

Conserve and protect
With this arctic freeze and snow we've had this week, it goes without saying the local news stations will be all over it with information we need. There are stories about how to keep your pipes from freezing or how... Continue reading

We are really getting a bout of frigid winter temperatures and to top it off, we're in for a lot of snow on top of it. I mean to say, it is seriously cold and the snow just keeps on coming along with wind. So, there is nothing much to do about it right now, the forecast is for this snow to keep ...
It's mixed seed with hot pepper. The birds aren't bothered by it, they love it. Squirrels hate it. Here is where I get it.

Linda I checked walgreens early this morning because I saw a notice the two collinsville stores will have vaccines on Monday. We tried and tried, but in the end, we could not make an appointment because they did not have the 2 doses and would not do just the first.

Meanwhile we wait
We've been watching the vaccine issuance for some time now and we can't make heads or tails out of how this is being done in Madison County. It just seems like surrounding counties and areas are way ahead of us. We heard to today from someone who is sort of involved that Madison was just overwhe...
