The Awesome Human Brain

There are about 100 billion neurons in the human brain, the same number of stars in our galaxy. An estimated 70,000 thoughts are produced by the brain on an average day. After age 30, the brain shrinks a quarter of a percent in mass each year.

Private Woodland Owners

Resources abound for private woodland owners in Indiana. We really enjoy the woods on our property, and wanted to learn about how to best care for them. John and I have been taking classes at the Purdue extension (yes, Purdue) on Charlestown Road, in New Albany.

If you are interested in tree planting to reforest open areas and streamsides, the construction of rural windbreaks, timber stand improvement, fencing to keep livestock out of forest and streamside areas, tree identification, forest biology and ecology, managing your woodland investment, marketing timber....I highly recommend looking into this class. It's fun and informative, and economical.
