Twin Cities Made: College Muscle Movers

I moved into my first college dorm in 2007. Now, 19 years later and four knee surgeries later, I don't want to move a single box, let alone an entire dorm room. That didn't stop me from moving myself into my house in Little Bohemia to save money, though. While I don't plan on moving anytime soon, the trauma of moving so many times, across so many states, still sits with me — in my soul and in my joints. That's why I wanted to talk to Daniel Blomberg. He's worked for College Muscle Movers for ten years now, and he seems to have a system that truly takes a load off families in transition.

Caring for winter pruning tools

UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTA EXTENSION - www.extension.umn.edu. Dormant pruning of various fruit crops is often done after the coldest parts of winter have passed, and before bud break begins, allowing enough time to finish the total acreage. However, from now until the time you start pruning, it can be a good time to take inventory of your current pruning tools to take note of what tools you have and their condition.
