How to Access: Chicago Master Gardener Blog
Are you having trouble accessing Ron's blog? Maybe it is because I put one too many "/" into the address. Try the address listed below. Mary Anne Spinner has given us directions for getting the Chicago Master Gardener blog on to our Favorites list for easy access.
The Blog is our best way to keep track of all opportunities available for Master Gardeners. After I send you an initial email, Ron puts it on the blog and you can refer back to it there. You won't have to keep emails in your mailboxfor reference. He also lists other opportunities and gardening news that come across his desk.
When you have created a "Favorite or a Desk top icon" email me. There will be special recognition for those who do at the next Master Gardener meeting on February 27th at Garfield Park Conservatory.
To access Ron Wolford's Chicago Master Gardener Blog, go to:
http://web.extension.uiuc.edu
To put this on yourFavorites list, go to the blog using the link above, or copy the link and paste into the address line of your browser and click Go.
Then click on the Favorites icon on your browser menu. When the Favorites menu opens, click on Add to Favorites.
To create an icon for the blog for your desktop, open the link above, place your cursor anywhere on the blog page and right-click; a menu will open with several choices.
One choice will be "Create Shortcut"; left-click on that choice.
You will then get a dialog box that asks: "Do you want to put a shortcut to this website on your desktop?" "Yes or no." Click Yes.
