    Boy fella it's good to see your still around these parts. your place looks so beautiful. I've thought about those fires up your way i've not heard much from the Canadian growers how their fairing. Your plants are looking great BTW everything is still so green, round here it's getting dry as heck very dangerous in the woods.

    Long time, no post. After skipping a year, decided to grow a couple GG4's and white windows. Having grown both before(using my own seeds this go)
    I know the white widow wants to grow tall and straight. So the two in bondage are the WWs. All have received their final topping.
    These will be grown in small containers on my deck. Hope all is well with ya'll.
    A peaceful morning here in the mountains, although a bit smokey from the Canadian wild fires.

    GreenState O was a stock I held for a while, made a bit on it moved on for some reason I can't remember. I also did alright the 1st quarter. Bet you never considered diesel a growth investment. Good to hear from you !!

    Eliot Pryor Certainly been nice to see IRM and other value/income investments outperform during the 1st quarter.
    I was pleasantly surprised to end the Q in the green!
    Hope all is well on your end. Getting ready to begin my final work season, even got the big dog truck out of the garage. Full
    tank of diesel purchased in November when I put her up for the winter. That Nov. fill up was probably @ $2 less per gallon than current diesel prices!
    All the best
    (finally bought a position in O(03/14/22) at $65.02/sh, had been patiently waiting for months! ha,ha)

    Yes i see that. I will have to remember this next fall. A small project to keep me entertained over the winter.

    Ckbrew nothing better than "house plants" in the winter, they see m to offer hope (hope the winter will end soon!)

    Hard to believe, these natural light window sill grown clones are a week shy of 5 months old, now 7 inches tall (lol). Still no signs of revegging yet. They must have concrete like root balls by now. They might just make it to planting season.

    Both the doe and skipper look healthy! Seem to have made it through the winter in great shape. Must be early brown ground for you this year. Hurts my back just looking at that pile of wood. Blocking and splitting are actually fun work, stacking just plain sucks.

    I will no longer have a wood stove to deal with. I will miss it believe it or not, i curse cleaning it out 1x wk in winter but i will miss the warmth and cooking ability when the power goes out LOL. I will create a firepit for sure

    A couple of deer looking out my dirty kitchen window yesterday. Now that most the snow has melted I can see that I
    made pretty good headway(5 cord done for sure) on next winters wood. Only 6 more logs from the truck load left to cut up and split, yea. Be awhile before I
    can stack it up, ground has to firm up.

    Still holding them back My window sill clones are now almost 4 months old(and 6" high!), continuously chopped
    and pretty much stuck in a heavy pre-flower state. They haven't seen artificial light since the beginning of Dec (except light from the living room in the morning and night before bedtime).
    Days are noticeably longer now and would think they'd be thinking of reverting to a full veg state.
    They are destined to be planted out in the woods somewhere, left to their own devise. They've been nice to have as house plants.

    Eliot Pryor aside from the with drawl penalties under certain circumstances, I don't see much downside for a bit different alternative place to park $10K(or less). Only losing a third of a percent to inflation . Yet for some (UNM) inflation can be a good thing(shameless plug) <g>. From their conference call after beating top and bottom line earnings

    Thank you, Mark. And our next question is from Erik Bass from Autonomous Research. Erik, your line is now open, if you’d like to proceed.

    Erik Bass

    Hi. Thank you. Can you talk broadly about the impact of higher inflation on your business? How much benefit do you get from rising wages in the premiums? And are there any areas where you're exposed to higher potential claim costs because of increased general inflation? And how does it affect your outlook for G&A growth?

    Rick McKenney

    Yes, it's a good broad question, Erik. I think, when you think about inflation, so you think about inflation and then possibly interest rates as well. But focusing on the inflation side, we will see some benefit. I think, we articulated some of those results and what we talk about is natural growth. When we see wages go up, we're going to benefit by that, just given the covers that we have out there and protecting people.

    We see a little bit of it in our own costs, as Mike articulated. But I think it's -- from an overall perspective, an inflationary environment is a good one for us and that's pretty much holistic, Mike. I don't know if you'd add anything to that.

    Mike Simonds

    No, I think you're right. I think the benefits that we pay out on the disability side and the life insurance side, are oftentimes a function of salary. So the benefits will move up, but the premium will move up in lockstep and that's really a good premium. It comes in with very low acquisition costs and very little incremental expense to serve. So, like Rick said, I think it's roundly positive for us.

    I don't have any I bonds. I have been reading about them recently. Nice return !!

    Humidity has settled in at 58% in the GG4 jars, which is about perfect for this sticky strain for rolling
    Eliot Pryor , ever buy an "I" savings bond? I'd guess when the interest rate gets readjusted in April(currently 7.12%) it might be higher? $10K max/cal. year. I'm interested.
