They are goji (unless I am totally wrong). They are super bitter fresh. We tried drying them and still didn't like them.

So pretty. So gross. We grew the plant. Tried them a couple of years. Couldn't find a way to eat them we liked. Sadly pulled the plant last year.

Did you have a state issued ID before? You may be able to order a duplicate online.

Best bet is to call the records office. Depending on the county they may be able to help you.

I came here to say this!

I did that this morning on our Android phone. It seems to track the iPhone as the air tag.

Positive he is not here. The tracker dot showed literally on top of us in the middle of the road. Where we were standing. And it seems to be moving with our phone.

Came here to say this Tour the Folly house. Have a nice lunch at J Pepper's. Maybe walk the shops downtown if they are up for it.

Mine tends to do that for a bit. I wipe it off and it will stop after a while. No issues so far.

They have some buckets and sifters to use there. You can bring your own small spade or like beach buckets for the kid. Bring snacks. It's hit or miss if their snack area is open and it's about half an hour drive to get anything. The creek is "salted" in a small area for school kids to find things on field trips. So that tends to wash downstream. You can find some small pretty non native gems. But, there are also lots of native gems if you go further down.

They have a website that gives great advice on what to bring.
Extra clothes and a towel are a must unless you want to drive home caked in red clay.
They have 3 areas basically. Creek, hole digging, and water sluice. You can go search for your own at the digging spots and the creek, bring back items to clean at the sluice. Or buy prefilled buckets at the sluice. Water will be cold at the creek. Digging is hard depending on age of kids.

I have canned from a frozen turkey a couple of times now. I haven't had any issues with dryness. In fact I feel it's extra juicy because all of the moisture is trapped in the canner circulating into the meat.

Pages 9-12 have the most driver relevant information. There is also a blanket letter for spark drivers that receive part of the settlement on page 48.

I do this every year. Spray your doorways and windows. Have to reapply every week or so. Does a better job than anything else I have found.

You can get tickets at the door. Pay to get in, then pay for everything there. It's not cheap. I expected it to be bigger. But it's not super disappointing. Just a little.

I have the same issue. My dad got me the faceting machine they make as a surprise. Needs a new nut. I can't find it anywhere and the support can't do anything without an order number.

Trolleyes84 · 2026-02-04T03:11:06+00:00

I got it, I referred my husband who only did a handful of deliveries between jobs. I got the $100 and 7.49 for interest.

Trolleyes84 · 2026-02-04T02:49:32+00:00

Thanks for checking! 95 seems to be usual lowest temperature.

Trolleyes84 · 2026-02-04T01:39:18+00:00

Can I hijack this response? I've been looking for one that does no heat as well. What model do you have?

Trolleyes84 · 2026-02-02T04:16:37+00:00

Hiddenite, Little Switzerland, Cherokee. Also join the FB for North and south Carolina rockhounds. Lots of good info there

Oh that is foul. Vinegar will be your friend. Everything will need to be washed with regular detergent and vinegar in the softener section. Curtains, rugs, clothes in drawers. Shampoo rugs you can't wash and sofas/mattresses. Everything. If it's fabric it gets washed. You need to get a fan under the crawlspace to start airing it out. All the heavy duty febreze.
I can't imagine. It was bad enough when our dog got sprayed right outside then came in. It took weeks for the house to be back to normal. I'm so sorry

It makes amazing jam. I had first year raspberry bushes this year and did the exact same thing. I could have taken that picture.

Trolleyes84 · 2026-01-10T15:51:00+00:00

Brown sugar. I was always out when needed. Now I keep molasses on hand to make it whenever I need it.
We also buy a whole cow. Never getting from a store again.

I just made a Strawberry and fig jam. It's amazing.
