Just Thinkin’ -

In a recent Just Thinkin’, I cited some of Roger Miller’s lyrics from King of the Road. My narrative prompted a newspaper contact to send me a note. I paraphrase but the response said, “After reading this week’s Just Thinkin’ which compared the behavior of the U.S. House of Representatives to some Roger Miller lyrics, I googled his King of the Road and listened. Now I can’t get the melody out of my mind. And it is all your fault!”

Winter Garden Watering

Winter Garden Watering

According to K-State horticulture expert, Ward Upham, snow across Kansas has provided some relief to landscapes during the dry December month, but yards may still need another shot of moisture to alleviate stress in lawns and gardens. A heavy watering that reaches moisture a foot down into the soil is much better than several light sprinklings that just wet the topsoil. This deep watering will ensure that the majority of roots have access to water.
