Oh yes, the branch is saved!
I drive DH nuts sometimes.

I didn't read it either, CG, but I didn't want to miss an opportunity for a cross-reference
I'm waiting for the mail. According to USPS tracking, I have a package sitting in the local PO that isn't due to be delivered until tomorrow. So when the mail truck rolls through here (any minute now), I'll know if I need to make a trip to the PO to get my package. In which case that's what I'll be doing
I haven't debarked mine. I let them dry and then cut them into discs to use with my smoker. I do the same with pear tree branches.Good deal.
I'm going to start saving dead branches from the apple trees around me. I *think* all you need to do is de-bark them. I think...
I'm sitting here cooking and surfing and wondering who all we are missing here. Seems like a slow post count day.

I would say yes (that's what happens with birch--the "paper" burns faster than the wood). I soak the discs. I do know that when you turn apple wood, it is lovely <g>. Maybe I'll take the bark off and do a test. I'm hankering to smoke the last turkey in my freezer when the temps drop (and when I have room in my 2nd fridge--into full veggie / garden harvest mode right now).You would know, but I could have sworn I read to take the bark off. Maybe it burns quicker and raises your temps?
+1 Especially when the dog is stronger than you are!Prong collars are great equalizers.
I'm having a Suzy Homemaker day. I just scrubbed all my pickling stuff, baked 3 dozen cookies, set the water distiller running, ran out for groceries and now I'm sitting with a cuppa and a cookie!
Couldn't have said it better.Oh that stinks...sorry Pac!
I hope they get it figured out to your satisfaction soon.And it's still stinkin'!
It's taken me this long to get through to a manager without being cut off, but it seems she's on top of things.
I was hoping it would be a simple case of fraud and them shutting the card down, but all I know is that was not it.
Thanks Linda.
She called me back and said it should be up and running again by 4:00, but still had no clue why it was cancelled. That's not very reassuring when so much is done electronically these days. It makes me wonder if their security was breached. Oh well.
