Members pneu-engine Posted May 27, 2004 Members Share Posted May 27, 2004 [quote] Grow your own or buy them in a store ? [/quote] We used to grow all of our own at home growing up, and my wife and I did the first several years of our marriage. We even had 31 fruit trees for our own fruit, which we canned. (Apples: seven varieties, Peaches: nine varieties, Apricots: three varieties, Plums: three varieties, and Cherries, and Nectarines, and lotsa good stuff. :D ) Now, our kids are grown and we just don't need that much anymore. Would you prefer to live deep in the woods ( --or-- In a development with lotsa neighbors everywhere you turn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members pneu-engine Posted May 29, 2004 Members Share Posted May 29, 2004 Not interested::: Watching sports programs (all) puts me to sleep. It's like watching paint dry, or watching grass grow. :mrgreen: Hiking in the beautiful pristine mountains :mrgreen: . --or-- Strolling a wild, lonely, uninhabited beach, far away from civilization :mrgreen: .

Members Jesuspaiditall4all Posted May 29, 2004 Members Share Posted May 29, 2004 Strolling a wild, lonely, uninhabited beach, far away from civilization.....I love the sound of water...so peaceful and relaxing.

Members pneu-engine Posted May 29, 2004 Members Share Posted May 29, 2004 [quote] Sound of a waterfall or bubbling brook? [/quote] I enjoy them both. The bubbling brook is more peaceful, but the waterfall is wonderfully powerful and loaded with potential to do things which just fills my head with ideas. :mrgreen: :mrgreen: While strolling/hiking::: Carry your lunch in a backpack --or-- Live off the land/water, and just take your chances with what you can find. :mrgreen: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members pneu-engine Posted May 31, 2004 Members Share Posted May 31, 2004 I really like a jet-powered "chopper". I rode one of those in Korea while traveling with the Base Commander (Brigadier General) and helping with his presentations. It had twin jet engines directly under the main rotor with the rotor shaft "sandwiched" between those twin jets. It could fly anywhere and land anywhere like an ordinary chopper, but also could attain forward speeds in excess of 200 knots. Hiking and strolling::: Would you like to go in the spring or fall?
