Superbowl weekend attracts no American like any other sport
event can. So its no wonder that many people don't care if they
don't even get inside the stadium, having a tailgate party would
be enough. A TV showing the action could spark the emotions in
people just like watching the game itself.
When you say tailgate party the first thing that comes to mind
is football and beer. But anyone could do that. To make a party
that everyone remembers is to make a party that's a cut above
the rest. The first thing to consider is having a party that's
extremely comfortable. That includes having a party that's
insect free.

| |
| Mount Sunflower, Kansas. Ebright Azimuth, Delaware. Hawkeye Point, Iowa. Hoosier High Point, Indiana.They may not have the name recognition of Mount McKinley (Denali), Mount Rainier, Mount Whitney, and Mount Hood. And they certainly are far, far easier to get to!

| Back from our family's vacation to Costa Rica, I am left feeling extremely grateful for not only the well-received rest and relaxation with family; I enjoyed exhilarating experiences previously unimaginable.Costa Rica's ad in this Sunday's New York Times includes the
tagline "No Artificial Ingredients." I'll say. What with monkeys
offering our singular wake-up call swinging limb to limb just
outside our hotel balcony, to iguanas joining us on our walk to
breakfast, to a highly venomous snake slithering right before our eyes on our drive to dinner, to native raccoon-like critters
sharing the bar under the grass-thatched hut where we dined for
most meals...nature called out loud and (read full article) |

| Article Title :: Disneyland for Hikers: A Walk to Mt. Whitney |
| |
| Base camp sits at 12,000 feet — stark, windy, unshaded from the blazing August sun, but an otherwise great place to stop for a snack. Voices echo across cold granite as the breeze wraps around dozens of tents, backpacks, cooking stoves, and bear-proof food canisters. An unopened package of banana chips on my lap is immediately snatched up by a marmot, unhindered by my presence and unfazed by my pursuit.Here, the animals, the people, and the barren granite form a bustling community in the Sierra Nevada wilderness. The trail to Mount Whitney sees thousands of people each year, all in pursuit of the highest peak in the United States (excluding Alaska). The people crowd the trail, th (read full article) |

| Article Title :: Why We Plant So Many Green Giant Arborvitae in Pennsylvania |
| |
|
Why We Like the Green Giant Arborvita(e) So Much
Our farm, Highland Hill Farm, is located in the solid clay soils
so common to Pennsylvania. We therefore like plants that grow
well in dense, heavy, rather impermeable, NOT well-drained
soils. One of the arborvitae, the Green Giant, the Western
Redcedar Tree, or botanically, the Thuja Plicata, is our
favorite. Here is why:
The hardiness zone the Green Giant Arborvita tolerates is from
zone 5 to zone 8. That's where extreme cold temperatures get
down to a temperate level of about 15 or 20 degrees in the
winter (Zone 8), but also as low as a frigid level of 15 or 20
degrees BELOW zero (zone 5). Green giants are evergreens, being
cedars. Thei (read full article) |
