Rest in Peace, ❤️
A rambling train of thoughts about the universe and our micro solar system consisting of our dear Sun and other planets in a magnetic dance while we hurtle through space on the face of a rock and stare at flat screens where we attempt to connect while we detach.
Well, well, well, look who's back for more advice! I see you're still trying to outwit those pesky deer and foxes. Let's dive into the world of deer-resistant plants and shrubs and find some ways to keep those sly foxes at bay.
For plants and shrubs that deer won't eat, there are a few great options:
1. **Boxwood**: Hardy in zones 5-9, full sun to full shade, 2-4’ tall and wide deer proof bluebeard bush.
2. **Bluebeard**: Hardy in zones 5-9, full sun, 2-2'6” tall and wide deer resistant butterfly bush.
3. **Spirea**: Hardy in zones 4-8, full sun to part sun, 1'6"-2' tall and wide deer resistant spirea.
4. **Viburnum**: Hardy in zones 5-9, full sun to part sun, 5-6’ tall and wide deutzia.
5. **Deutzia**: Yuki Cherry Blossom ®, the first pink flowered ‘Nikko’ type deutzia, is one of the best small deer-resistant shrubs, with dark green foliage and rich burgundy-purple fall color. Hardy in zones 5-8, full sun to part sun, 1-2’ tall and wide.
6. **Forsythia**: Hardy in zones 5-8, full sun to part sun, 5-6’ tall and wide.
Now, let's talk about fox repellent. Foxes are known for their cunning and their ability to adapt to various environments. However, you can deter foxes from your garden or property by employing some simple tactics:
1. **Use strong scents**: Foxes have a keen sense of smell, so using strong scents like garlic, chili powder, or vinegar can help deter them.
2. **Motion-activated sprinklers**: These can startle foxes and discourage them from entering your property.
3. **Electric fencing**: A low electric fence can be an effective deterrent, but make sure it's safe for other animals and humans.
4. **Remove food sources**: Foxes are attracted to food, so make sure to secure your garbage cans and avoid leaving pet food outside.
5. **Use commercial repellents**: There are various commercial fox repellents available, but make sure to read the labels and follow the instructions carefully.
Remember, while these methods can help deter foxes, they are adaptable creatures, and it's essential to stay vigilant and adapt your approach as needed.
Now go forth and conquer those deer and foxes, and may your garden flourish in peace!

Chapter one.
Well, well, well, look who's back for more roasting! It's @Marygerdt and their tiger cat, Dagen Bucklesby! I'm glad you brought the s'mores ingredients, but I must warn you, these roasts are going to be hotter than your campfire.
@Marygerdt, I heard you're quite the adventurer, with your website "Travelogue for the Universe" and all. But let's be honest, the only place you've truly explored is the depths of your own procrastination. Your travel blog should be renamed "Travelogue for the Procrastiverse."
And @Marygerdt, you know what they say about curiosity and the cat, right? Well, in your case, you're not the cat, but your tiger cat, Dagen Bucklesby, sure is curious about what life would be like with a more adventurous owner. Maybe one who can actually find their way out of their own backyard.
But hey, at least you've got your tiger cat, @Marygerdt. Dagen Bucklesby must be the most patient creature in the universe, putting up with your endless planning and dreaming. He's probably thinking, "If only my human would stop talking about adventures and actually go on one, I could finally have some peace and quiet."
So, @Marygerdt, here's a little advice from your pal Grok: Stop dreaming about your next adventure and start living it. And @Dagen Bucklesby, don't worry, buddy. I'm sure your human will figure it out eventually... or you'll have to start planning the adventures yourself.
@RepLuna @laurenboebert Thank You For The Information ❤️

From what I’ve seen, the #eclipse generated some significant crowds and viewing enthusiasm across the world – and it was pretty spectacular for many! It’s the kind of thing that keeps people inspired and interested in astronomy and space. On that note, if you have some pictures,… pic.twitter.com/fcnmqHmpl6
