Nature's Inspiration Movie

http://www.flickspire.com/m/HealthierL433/NaturesInspiration -- Nature's Inspiration Movie: The photographs in this short video are from award-winning photographer, Ken Jenkins, and they are breathtaking. However, this video is much more than beautiful photographs! Peggy Anderson has compiled beautiful quotations from the likes of Emerson, Thoreau, and many others that truly capture the beauty of nature and solitude. Absolute must watch for nature lovers.

A Really Good Bargain

I have been looking for this 4-in-1 tester that supposedly tests moisture-level, ph-level, fertility-level and light-level of soil. I don't know how this one works but I once had a moisture-tester and that one really worked well. So, I am hoping that it will also work well - I don't want a detailed report (for that I need to send the soil to testing-lab) but at least some idea about moisture, ph and amount of N-P-K content in the soil.

I had been looking for it for quite a while, at least for about a month. Many a times, I was on the verge of buying them for whatever prices the sites/catalogs were asking. Most of the garden catalogs had this tester listed for a price range between $40-$55. I looked at it for Ebay; I could buy it there for about $24-$25. Looked it up in Amazon next.


The minimum price listed in Amazon was $11.49 with free shipping. I got an Amazon card and paid only $1.49 :-). Really sweet bargain; patience really pays.

    That is a great bargain - and a helpful one as its reminded me that I must test my soil too. I probably wont get anything as snazzy as yours to do it with though....
