..I never manage to get more than one round of strawberries -
my sister about 45 min away has batch after batch. Someday
maybe I'll figure out what I'm doing wrong there.

There are wild ones on my property. Tiny but still pack a punch
of flavour. Without looking it up (I am throttled down to 36Kbps
at this moment as I have run out data quota and can't look it up) strawberries basically like acidic soil - and ofcourse - the
little pollinators known as bees help a lot. I've noticed that
either mice, birds or some other wild creatures would take a bite
out of them and waste the rest.

Very nice. Here in Utah they actually grow wild in the mountains. The Uintah mountain ranges are especially full of them. Smaller than what you find in the store of course, but very yummy. Same with raspberries - all over the mountain ranges. Then you have other lesser knows like elderberries (which IMO are quite good)

In The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim you can find many fine elderberry bushes.

lol

Hawk if you've never actually tried them and get a chance, do it. They can be semi bitter if you just eat them from the bush when they are not 100% ripe, but they make great pies (I still like them off the bush) :D

Yes - I can think of a few things that I also like off the bush.

That's awesome. I have been spending a lot of time watching videos trying to learn about my telescope (while I wait for the Seattle weather to STOP RAINING! lol) and I have seen some larger ones and they seem really neat. Iwish we had more space in our house, otherwise I would think about
getting one!

I thought people used the t'scopes OUTSIDE most of the time.

I have a used telescope (still in its box) that I should try out,
but I would have to take it outside. Using any window in the
house would require moving a lot of furniture each time.

I wouldn't assume that non-sysop users are so uncommon. ..

Just my tuppenceworth on this; despite my being tempted to become a sysop again, I keep thinking about doing it, and I remember what effort goes
into it. I know I can set up Enigma or Mystic in about 30 mins, but it's what happens from there that counts. If I made a half-assed BBS then there would literally be no point in doing it..

Some bbses exist soley for the sysop's use as a reader (using
GoldED as an editor) to participate in networked messaging. I'm
just going by the sense that there are many nodes listed as PVT
and unreachable. Others are open for callins, but I bet they are
there to primarily serve up games.

Being a user again over the last six+ months has been a lot of fun for me on a personal level and so I think that at least for now, it's a good
thing to have one less Sysop talking away :)

Same story for me. I've been very tempted to fire up a bbs and
learn to customize it and be the boss of my own abode. But
broken port-forwarding in my DSL router ceased that option, and
alternatively being on mobile data ceased the requirement to be
telnettable for most of a 24hr day to make it worth while for
callers.

Back in the day, I started with RBBS-PC software. Then I gained
the trust to co-sysop another RBBS-PC board by remote, then I
eventually bought that sysop's system and continued it as my own
and added a couple of othernets. Then I moved to other BBS
software. Then, I migrated to primarily being just a file board
(5-disc changer on a SCSI) and messaging. Then I limited my
system to just mail-only (ie messaging).

So.. messaging is my thing.

Today, using OpenXP is very similar to just running a bbs for my
own messaging purposes.
