Latest updates to my blog layout.

URL

I changed the URL to http://joenemec.blogspot.com from http://babyharley82nd.blogspot.com

Title

I changed the font and color of the Blog Title.

Blog Description

I know the color doesn't quite look right with the background but I'm working on that.  I also changed the text for the description.

Wigdets

I added a Label cloud, subscribe widget, zazzle panel and a follow by email widget.

Posts

I changed the post title font and the post date color.

Favicon

I never knew what a Favicon was until I looked it up.  It is the icon next to the www.joenemec.blogspot.com in your address bar.  I created that and added it.  I thought an N made out of pencils would look pretty cool in the address bar.  So if you add www.joenemec.blogspot.com to your favorites you will have the Favicon there also.

That is all for right now.  If you have any suggestions leave a comment below. Adios!

2013 NCBA Butner Hunt

Ok,  I went to the NCBA Butner Hunt in Butner, NC two weeks ago.  I had a great time with my friends.  I spent a lot of time around the campfire drinking my Dandelion Wineshine. 

That reminds me I need to look up some vinting recipes.  If any one has a good wine recipe for a new vinter please post a comment below.  I went hunting 2 days out of the week but when I did I ran into more deer than expected.  I did not kill anything.  They saw me before I saw them. I just wanted to put this post out there so you would know I'm still here.

Check out the new 13skills.com and my members page there!

So today I went to my 13skills.com page and updated some of my goals.   I added some progress and as I was doing so I realized I had not posted in a long time.  If you have not seen the new 13skills.com head on over there.  They have a whole new version that allows you to comment on other members progress and ask for advice from experts. Stilll learning about this blogging thing so be gentle with me.  If anyone has any commments or questions feel free to leave them.  Hope your having a great day.

Starting my food forest.

This week I was able to start my food forest.  I bought a concod, white seedless, and red seedless grape vine.  I also bought two blueberry bushes, and three different types of rasberry bushes.

It was hard finding time to plant them but I did it.  The grape vines I planted along my fence.  Each section of fence is 6 feet and I planted each one in the middle of a section.  the bushes I  planted in a row 5 feet from the fence.  For all of the beds I dug a trench 1 foot deep and a foot and a half wide. I then filled the trench with wood.  Some was dry some was green.  Jack from the survival podcast says that the wood wil rot and become sponge like and will trap moisture lowering the need for irrigation.   He also says that for the first year the wod will soak up nitrogen from the soil.  I'm hoping that by adding green vegitation it will not take the nitrogen from the soil or if it does the greens wil replace it as hey rot.  We'll see what happens.

Getting back into it.

Hey guys. Sorry I have not been blogging lately. I'm hoping if I could make this a weekly blog I will be able to keep up with it better. This weekend I was able to plant 2 blueberry bushes, 3 different types of raspberries, and 3 different types of grapes. I hope you all are doing well.
