Who We Are revisited
I suppose most would say that my greatest accomplishment has been coming up with semi-hydroponic culture, but to me it's not throwing in the towel after a heater failure on a seven-degree (F) night that wiped out a 20-year collection of stuff, including irreplaceable plants I collected while traveling the world on business. I have another opportunity to test my desire to go on right now, as my propane supplier was kind enough to run me out of fuel on a 5° night just last week. Fortunately, it wasn't a total wipe out (looks like the heat went off right at dawn), but I have a lot of trimming to do while on Christmas vacation. Ouch, Ray... Had almost the same experience the day after thanksgiving. Fortunately I checked the gauge on the tank, which was reading zero but not quite at zero... Had a firm (but polite, of course) talk with the driver who delivers my fuel, who had been out two days prior delivering fuel to my neighbor... He knows to check my tank now. This reinforces my thought of last night, which was... "Maybe I'd better get my kerosene turbo heater set up in the greenhouse today, just in case". And I'll check the propane tank, too. -- Rob's Rules: http://littlefrogfarm.com 1) There is always room for one more orchid 2) There is always room for two more orchids 2a) See rule 1 3) When one has insufficient credit to obtain more orchids, obtain more credit |
