Elk, Trees and Water

20240225

This video is taken from next to my property line above the house. They made pretty short work of hauling up the cut trees on the hillsides. Seems like it shouldn't be too long before they are done here. We (I and my daughter's dog) interrupted a few elk on top when I went up to view the progress.

I noticed the loss of water pressure from the spring later that day. It took me a bit to locate the damage causing the substantial leak and almost complete loss of pressure. And, of course, it was caused by the elk that had vacated the area through my property. They managed to bump into one of my hydrants and snapped it off underground. It was/is pretty tedious trying to dig it up again with all of the rock placed around the bottom of the post. That line also supplies the aqua hose so I'm without water down there until I fix it.

This is a mockup to check that my spacing calcs were correct. It is for a revamp of the water lines and valves currently located on/in the ground just outside the end of the new barn. The problem is that I gradually added on new lines and valves as needed over the years and now it is kind of messy and also very tedious to insulate or protect the lines and valves when we have freezing weather. I was thinking of just burying all of the pipes underground and putting in valve boxes where needed to reach the valves but that doesn't make the layout any better. And if I do have a problem, that would be a mess to dig up. So I decided to build an insulated box against the barn to hold all of the valves needed to stop or divert the water from the two sources as needed. The pic is my mockup for two lines, each fed by two sources. I'll end up with six of these in the box, but easily insulated and/or heated. This will also allow me to place the pressure switch inside a cover instead of trying to protect it outside. I wanted to go with all metal valves, but unfortunately everyone seemed to be low on stock except for very high priced valves at the time.

“In order to save glyphosate, the Monsanto corporation has undertaken an effort to destroy the United Nations’ cancer agency by any means possible.”[10]

... " just four companies — Bayer, Corteva (formerly DowDuPont), BASF and Syngenta/ChemChina — controlled 75 percent of plant breeding research, 60 percent of the commercial seed market, and 76 percent of global agrichemical sales in 2019."[78]



Just gotta' LOVE glyphosate, right?????

Yes, the second link is old news, but not forgotten and more importantly, as the first link shows, not remedied:

Just Say No To GMO by Michael Adams - Music
https://oregonTruffleTryst.com/_MEDIA/JustSayNoToGMO-192.mp3 Song Lyrics

Song by Mike Adams, with spoken lines from Jeffrey Smith

I’m lookin at the food that’s in the grocery store
They say it’s safe, everybody eat more.
On second thought, I don’t really know if it’s made with those GMOs

So I’m lookin for the non-GMO label ‘fore I bring it home and put it on my table
I wanna know it’s verified so I don’t
Harm myself with genetically modified

Uh-Oh
They don’t want you to know
All the poison they grow
The corporate profits they show from those GMO OH

Those Frankenseeds that they sow
They’re gonna hurt us we know
It’s time we told ‘em to go, say GMO NO!

I don’t want eat poison, I don’t want gene mutations at my dinner reservations
it’s a food abomination what they doin’ to this fast food nation
They take artificial gene combinations
inject them in seed variations
so they can grow their Frankenfood imitations
while the side effects cause medical patients

Keep their profits alive while they
spraying all the food with name brand herbicides
and all the while they’re spreadin’ their lies
Monsanto (Bayer now!) destroyin’ farmers lives
and the FDA keeps it all going
saying it’s safe even though they all know it’s just
poison stealing away your life, and that’s what you eat with genetically modified.

GMO safety huh that’s a corporate myth
if you don’t believe me listen to Jeffery Smith
He’s the man with plan gonna do what he can
To help us all get those GMOs banned
But we need you to lend a hand
take a stand against this food scam
It’s a mission for the health condition worldwide
We don’t wanna live genetically modified

Don’t eat food unless you know what’s in it
Don’t believe the propaganda cuz the press will spin it
Affects everybody, we all up in it
Stand up to Monsanto (Bayer now!), tell ‘em oh no you didn’t

Reject Frankenfoods in the store
demand honest labels so we can be informed
We have a natural right to know
What we buyin’ Just say no to GMO

Before our farms start dyin’
Just say no to GMO

Those corporate crooks are lyin’
Just say no to GMO

This time we’re not complyin’
Just say no to GMO

We’re just not buyin’ it
Just say no to GMO
