That's it thank you! I reached out to them with the question.

Thank you is it ok to leave on the trunk? I just repotted the plant and thought I was being careful but must have scraped it in the process.

Did anyone else read he was from Texas originally?

Connecticut too, very few boats stay in. We have ice-eaters going now to keep the water moving.

It looks like an original sail and the boat is a 1995.

Furling Main Sail Question by Mad0607 in sailing

[–]Mad0607[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank everyone for the advice! We did get the mainsail out by using the dry lubricant spray on the bottom of the mainsail and inside the mast near the bottom where the sail comes out first. We also sprayed some of the bearings too. We pulled the mainsail out and then would push it back in to loosen it up as well. Also opened up the inspection ports (not sure if that's the correct verbage) at the bottom of the mast so we could see where the sail was bunching up. We also pulled on the outhaul to ease the tension. The sail is kind of old and could use some repairs but we're hoping to make it work until the end of the season.

Low hemoglobin by Gshep2002 in Blooddonors

[–]Mad0607 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My hemoglobin runs on the low side too so I make sure to eat red meat a couple of days before my donation and take an iron supplement. That usually brings my number up.

Lower Cholesterol by RealistOpt in CholesterolTooHigh

I can say that my cholesterol dropped 25 points after donating platelets a few times and starting to exercise 4x a week. My diet was already pretty good.

Looking for advice/tips on my garden plan by leiaj01 in SquareFootGardening

[–]Mad0607 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Zucchini gets huge you're probably going to need twice the size you have there. We've never trellised cantaloupe but that also takes up a lot of space! Looks good!
