Made me stronger I reckon. Never understood taking castor oil or turpentine but the herbal teas my grandmother made were very healthy.

Castor oil, taken internally, is for constipation. No need to take it if you don't have that problem. I think cod liver oil is for the vitamins A and D. I have NO idea what turpentine on sugar is supposed to cure.

She lived to be 95 and rarely saw a doctor so she obviously knew things that weren't taught in med school.

I just searched WebMD and agree the turpentine shouldn't be taken internally.

DW's aunt just died at 104 and I'm pretty sure she never took turpentine internally. Being a chemist I suspect she knew better.

Thus, I don't think those 95 years are a direct result of ingesting turpentine.

I've never seen a golden eagle in person. Are they pretty?? The raptors we have are pretty. We have bald eagles, red tailed hawks, and a while bunch of falcons.

When I was in Alaska, I got to see bald eagles in the trees along the waters edge.

We visited another place and I got to see a large Raven.

I have great difficulty getting pics of my hens that are flattering to them. For one thing, they never stop moving. And I can’t get a good angle without getting down on the ground which around here is usually muddy and wet.

If I got down on the ground to take pictures I would be laying or sitting in or on a fire ant nest.

NOT GOOD !

I hate fire ants so much. My feet are scarred from all the bites i have received from those demonic little things.

I understand as I have had my share of the bites.
