Good morning!!!!

[Eric Salop]

I have not 1 but 2 wascally wabbits running around my back yard/garden. Need to take them out. Anyone eat cottontail anymore?

Soon the fish in my top pond will be getting the occasional rabbit for a treat. To make things more entertaining for children (of all ages), the rabbit goes into a bucket with holes in the bottom, then all it takes is a few eager flies to start off the protein conversion.



Not recommended for ponds that are close and upwind of a house !

Prayers for all those in need

Forecasters were correct, wind is much stronger today. I took notice of them yesterday and got a fair bit of the weed spraying for nettles done in the afternoon. With wetter weather coming for the weekend I have probably now lost the opportunity to spray and the rest will be up above waist height in no time, just have to cut them for now and tackle the regrowth later.

Very good news bird. Riptides, your life is always a rollercoaster, hope things can go steady for a while.

Wng, so you made your poor old ride on do all that work yesterday after emergency surgery, despite the new zero turn coming today! I didn't think you were the sort of person to inflict that on a faithful old mower, just to give a few extra days to polish and admire the new one before coating it in grass clippings :laughing: Look forward to seeing the pics.

26 and going to a high of 50, mainly sunny. Wind 0.
We got sunny for the next 5 days.Summer has arrived!

Geeze, some of you guys are picking spuds and mine haven't even gone into the ground yet!

Out back where we never go in winter the frost was 3' down. The dog got buried 5' down. It took me about 30 minutes to dig the hole and another 30 to fill it back up.

Bird, that is fantastic news!


When I was 2, I was 'clinically blind'. Glasses fixed that, though. so I do know what the alternative is like.
It is no picnic.

Car tire kicking today. I have 8 picked to check out, ranging in price from $10,900.oo (abused) to $60,000.oo (new). All from the same dealer.

Happy Friday all

Reminds me I need to get the bb gun and take it with me to the garden.
Pumped up fully, it will do a hurting on the rear end of a rabbit.
Want to associate pain with garden, some good training...

My .22 with a scope would be the permanent solution but I'm not there yet.
Woe to any critter than actually chomps something good in my garden.
This afternoon I am patching holes in the plastic netting. My bad for waiting this long.
Kyle, tastes like chicken.

Drinking first cup of coffee. 40° with mostly cloudy skies this morning. Heading to 50° with rain in afternoon. Put out last of the 450 lbs of bird feed I bought this winter. They will have to wait until October for me to put anymore out. Sandhill Crane has made it daily stop. Got lawn cut yesterday after dentist visit. 1 hour in the chair with mouth forced open farther than it should be. Got repairs and a filling. No Crown. Looks like I will continue to be a Pauper. No plans for today yet.

Bird, good news on eyes.

Buppies glad back is healing.

Drew, that is the right size potato to rinse off with a garden hose and eat raw.

Roy, it will not be a 5 minute job to assemble the chipper. My guess it will take a six pack.

WNG, easy fix. You getting rid of it?

Looking, good luck car shopping.

ED, hope you find the leak soon.

Payers for all in need.

Good Morning All.

58 outside this AM. Going to low eighties today. I think groundhog work and grass cutting is on order when the fog burns off. Use to eat hassenpeffer that is rabbit all the time in my day. Friends bred them just for eating.

Have a great day all. Good fortunes and be safe.

Good morning guys, I’m sitting on the bed thinking boy, that shower stall is translucent, not opaque, and I ain’t telling!

 

[toppop52]

80’s to 90 for the next 7 days. Hope you all feel well and have great weekend.
Wngsprd, pictures of new mower ASAP.

56 and foggy going to 83. Had another rain come through last night so total was .60 inch...very nice and the garden suffered no damage from the thunderstorm wind.

Ron, hope your mouth is feeling better.

Eric, pond looks great. At first reading I thought the rabbit was alive...wondered how you kept in the bucket.

Old mower will stay here as long as it still works and doesn't require much $$ to keep running. It has a 4 ft deck...new zero has 5 foot deck and ROPS, so waiting to see if places I won't be able to mow with it.
