Eklectic I lived in Aylmer , toronto, and Ottawa for brief patches as a youth.
I have fond memories of those places.
You wouldn’t be down in that small mouth bass country ??

Yep, My daddy started up the Service Police school there in 1954.
I started my lifeguard training there and completed it.
I boxed under Wes Burnell there for two years.

I picked and hoed tobacco for pennies and spent the best months of my youth in that area.

Bob, I am now south of Ottawa, but have lived in Orleans, (Ottawa) at one point, as well as Kamloops, Vancouver, Richmond, Surrey and I was forgetting “Orchard Time” in Osoyoos B.C.
As well as Montreal and suburbs.
We were in Calgary and thoroughly enjoyed it. Just love the “old west”.

Well thank you very much Bunting.

Do you folks ever get talking about better plant care and the like?

I’m really interested in sustainable methods of home gardening.

you name it and we’ve talked about it!!
and if, by chance, you have a new topic (or want a repeat of an old topic) just put it out there and you’ll get lots of conversation about it
