I have a similar "while I have the time" project. I collect rocks out of a
farmer's field, and fill mudholes with them. One I've been working on, is
where the utility guys pull off the road to do phone wiring. The mudhole is
probably four by 10 feet or so. I've put in a bunch of buckets of rocks, and
I'm falling behind. The mudhole is still there.

A few years back, I used buckets of rock to fill the sink holes at my
church, next to the storm drain.

Farmers are better off without the rocks, and the rest of the world is
better off without the sink holes. I only harvest rocks between crops,
won't walk on shoots or harvestable crops.

I also am not all that impressed with "in the box" thinkers.

Nope. That's the whole point. I don't have to clean up any of this poison
oak. So, I can take my time.

Basically, when I get in the mood for a good fight, I head down to the
ravine for battle. It's really more of a hobby to figure out how to
defeat the poison oak, to beat it at its own game - and not get rashed in
the process.

It has been a tough battle - but I've learned a lot in just the past few
days, so, eventually, I'll know the secret.

Today I talked to a pharmacist. I must have gotten a bad apple because
she kept telling me it's for women and that it won't work on the skin and
that it wasn't an "approved purpose".

I need to find a pharmacist who can actually think out of the box.
(It doesn't seem to be their specialty as all they do is follow the
rules.)
