Got tied up with planting fall crops. Just for curiosity, I did a search for "print" in Firefox add-ons. Good gracious. We not the only ones who want printable pages. There's quite a few add-ons that deal with this. Problem is, finding the one that works the best. o_O I bet the two you linked to would be a good start. Dale :-) :-) P. S. Planted my fall crops: Mustard, turnip and collard greens with kale, lettuce, basil, parsley and something else I forget as well. I also planted similar crops for two other people. Had a recent rain so my garden is turning green again. I like when crops are growing even if I don't eat the stuff growing. A lot of people come up and pick stuff out of my garden.
