Compost Enthusiasm

When I decided to start making my own compost I became some what obsessed and dragooned my husband into making a pallet bin. Well, of course one bin worked fine until it was full and then I needed someplace to turn the compost in to. I'm currently up to 5 pallet bins.

Meanwhile I've tried 3 different manures (cow, horse, lama) and am an avid collector of "browns" and "greens". I bought a compost thermometer and excitedly report the temps of the piles. I realized maybe I was talking about compost too much when I over heard my husband tell some friends that when he dies, by all means come to the funeral but it would be best not to stick around for the interment.
