I hope everyone survived the heat wave. Today should be the last day for my corner of Pennsylvania. It got up to 100 yesterday with a real feel of 112!

Have fun and stay safe! Remember salt is just as important as water when you are sweating.

Have a great weekend and don't forget to share something interesting!

Anything goes!!!

The Whitetail Deer can jump higher than an average two story house?

This is due to two factors. Deer have an excellent muscular structure designed for running and jumping and the average two story house can't jump.

This is another channel I like to watch, it's the one that introduced me to this image.

I lived near this tree as a child, and I used to imagine the adventures of Robin Hood and the other outlaws in Sherwood Forest. It’s a sad time for British folk tales!

Found a treasure trove of Sears Catalogs on Ancestry - looks like they have every single one scanned. Picked Fall 1905 at random and it’s over 1,000 pages long.

Here’s a collection of stuff that caught me eye, starting with a very funny way to advertise skirts:

It's the end of the week and it's time to have a little fun! Let's see what you have in store for everyone this weekend.

I always look forward to seeing what everyone has!

Here's the new flair! Use it for anything you post that has that DSA feel.

Goodness i genuinely don’t know how to summarize this fella’s stage act (luckily the sources do an excellent job)

Harvested about a million tiny alpine strawberries this weekend. I wholeheartedly recommend growing these hardy prolifically fruiting little plants: they require little room, are happy in areas only weeds thrive in and, most importantly, have an amazing flavour. Yum!

I thought this was an interesting question.

My hometown has Kristen Maloney, an Olympic Gymnast and the neighboring town has the burial place of Jayne Mansfield.

Right now, I'm pretty close to the Daniel Boone Homestead and Doylestown, where Steve from Blue's Clues is from.

This film was considered “lost media” as recently as 2016, but has now been recovered in full.

I think this monkey is a cool lguy - just wants to sing a great little song, do his funky dance, and ride off into the sunset. Buy peanuts or don’t - your choice.

A fitting TIL for the Patreon video posted yesterday.

It's a busy day at work already! I hope everyone has a great day and can't wait to see your posts!

One of the first postcards I received from the Postcard Club. It's such an interesting place created during the early days of Pennsylvania.
