you fucking didn't! Most ive done is 2 and i can't honestly say that I enjoyed it but it did make me better in a way.  It moved the plot along.

I quit using that fucking herb dryer torture device thing.  I just use paint strainer bags now which i think are the same thing as brew bags basically.

Really? I’m so happy i bought one of those herb dryers! Before that I just spread it out on top of a cheese cloth in the garden or bath tub. That was annoying but maybe I should try a paint strainer bag as well

Shit that's brutal brother :|, all that time and effort

I must confess I now feel like a genius for making blue agar that looks green now that it's mixed in with the grain

As the mycelium eats it's way through the agar it will lighten up in colors.

Great point, finger's crossed it'll look largely normal by the time everything is done

Hey Hippie, looking good! Oh I love babies on the beach! So special. Really happy for you guys, that after all you were able to have another one, and such a cute one too.

My own brood gets pretty wild about the sea and the beach, but not half as manic as when they were little crawlers. Hoe does your son respond to such heavy change of scenery? He's ok with that?

We're still on the seaside, living the good life. As usual I regret living in a house. Always happier in the tent or the van.

My wife is afraid I'll take the crabs home and give them names, lol. "Don't you feed those! Before you know they'll be sleeping in bed with you, on MY SIDE of the bed"

Dang. Somehow I missed this.  My bad churp. 



So ya. My son absolutely loved it.  One of his things he really hates is  getting water on his face.

If he ges splashed on his face he'll keep his eyes closed until you dry his face of with a towel.


He's gotten alot better about it now thats hes older and we've practiced alot in the shower.    But in general he'd still rather not get his face wet.


So that was a little tough at first. Him getting used to the crashing waves and salt water in the eyes took some Time.

But after abbout an hour or so. He realized he couldn't go in everytime to wipe his face on a towel.  And the fun and excitement proved to out weight his concern about his face.

  I had to drag him out by the 4th hour for a break.

we can't let him go much longer because once his hands get too pruney they start to crack and stuff when he does his stemming which consist of flicking  and blowing his fingers constantly.



I do miss the days of being able to just camp out in tents or in a van but due to some of the things I described about my son and a lot of others that happen to affect him..

that's almost impossible. We have to have a roof over our head for him.


My baby girl loved it as well.  And thanks so much for your recognition

We've been trying so hard for the past 11  years To have her.  And give our son a sibling.  While once upon a time we wished they weren't 11 years apart from eachother on thier first beach vacation.

We couldn't be truly happier today. It took many attempts and even more losses to get here.  It really makes it all that much more special.

We're truly grateful to the woman from the other side of the world who was so gracious enough to donte her eggs to us and make all of this possible..


Our dreams have come true on so many different levels.
