If these three are the top of the heap - wot's at the bottom ???

Speaking of HEAPS --- made me remember something my father taught me. Each morning, all winter long, he would remove from the barn the accumulation of horse and cow manure and pile it in a heap out-side. There it would "heat" like a small volcano until spring.

That's when the magic took place! He removed all of "the green stuff" from the top of the heap to expose the well-rotted fertilizer at the bottom. This was spread deeply on the vegetable garden and potato patch. Then it was plowed into the soil and Mom would plant her garden. It was a lot of work but it really paid off. We always had the earliest and best yielding garden in the district. It taught me that you do not always find the best at the top of the heap. You have to dig deeper to find the best. When the provincial parties strip away all the "fat-cats" from the top of the heap, maybe I'll start voting again --- maybe. The lessor of two or more evils is still EVIL!!!

Still steaming --- Dick.

Ah, yes - so true !

Hey, Folks --- They published my book !!!

"NORTHERN SON", my autobiography, is now available from AMAZON books in both print and Ebook formats. It's been a long and eventful journey, but it's finally done. I hope folks have as much fun reading it as I had writing it.

Happy reading --- Dick.

Congratulations! May I ask how you go about getting a book published? I inquire not for myself but for a friend.

Thanks.

WD, I've requested the Edmonton Public Library to buy some copies of your book. It will help sales and get the word out.
