Before I write down more things I learned, I wanted to give a gardening hint that I learned today. My neighbor suggested that as summer ends and fall comes its important to cut away branches off tomato plants so that the growth of the plant goes to the remaining tomatoes to ripen rather than branches that have no tomatoes.

-The host is Man Verses Wild is a guy named Bear Grylls
-heat rocks in a fire to put in a container of water to get it to near boiling.
-boil shell fish for 20 min to kill germs
-stinging vines can have stinger metals removed by starting at the base of the stem and go strip the leaves along the stem to the tip and the leaves at the base will take the brunt of the stingers as you remove the leaves. Bash the stalks to break up the fibers aan separate the vine to make threads that can tie things together.
