It's too big and I can't turn it so I need to "bandicoot" the partly broken-down leaf litter and bag it i.e. mine the heap like a gold miner. It got too big because the fire season hit very early and so there's been a mad effort to rake up leaves etc.

TL,DR; I used echinacea root tea to rapidly relieve the symptoms of an URI that has afflicted my family.

One benefit is the effect the root tea has on our upper respiratory system.

My family is sick with some random head cold, I chose to suffer through it since it didn't stop from getting my work done. No fever for me but I've been blowing out "grellow" mucus for a few days.

My three month old and almost two year old have fevers to accompany their sickness. They got to drink some echinacea root tea mixed with their breastmilk and cow milk respectively. Within the hour they both had fevers lower a few degrees and no more fussing. The mucus broke free and after one round of booger-sucking and nose blowing there's no more stuffiness.

If I followed a pediatricians advice, the youngest wouldn't be able to have anything unless we wanted to risk using ibuprofen, which doesn't really help the situation at all. The toddler would have been able to take motrin, which would help with the fever, but nothing else.

I'm glad I chose the echinacea, it's doing so well with helping the boys feel better. I still felt like crap, so I drank the leftovers with my wife. No more headache after 5-10 minutes and my nose is clear.

The plants are gorgeous as well. Mine all have red/orange flowers. I didn't want to harvest them, but the tea was why I planted them to begin.

I suggest this to others if they are so inclined, it worked better than anything I've ever taken, doesn't make me feel like shit either, like cold meds have in the past.

You are dead motherfuckers!

Has anyone tried those?

Rainy season started this weekend in Costa Rica. So no more hosing.

Your time is...extended.
Not the toil
not the burn
not the hunger
nor the yearn.

You may rest forever... now.
But your life's energy
Paid forward
It burns on man.

Decades of customers yards full
Spring here again this year
Buds bursting forth
YOUR HEART STILL BEATS ON MAN.
Oxygen, shelter, shade, beauty, food.

Babies will have babies that will sit in cool shade and clean air
They will grow and learn and love in, and what, you have left.
Others will pick up what you started and carry on.
You deserve heaven for this and I thank you.

We moved to our own place last October 30th.
Our lot is about 900 mts2 and I have been working the land in my spare time. Good thing is that working from home is a big benefit because I am able to just take a little walk through our yard and see how everything is going.

So far we have planted:

- cherry tomatoes
- tomatoes
- squash
- zucchini
- potatoes
- onions
- avocado
- arracache
- melon
- water melon
- orange lemon
- cas guava
- mango
- tangerine
- orange
- spinach
- blackberry
- coriander
- lettuce
- chamomile
- chive
- banana
- sweet corn
- sweet pepper
- hot pepper
- carrots
- papaya
- celery
- Italian parsley
- mint
- thyme
- aloe vera

We are still missing the coffee trees and other plants, but all in due time. Hopefully in a couple of months/years we will see everything fructify in the Lord's name.
