The grass doesn't grow well until the low (night) is 70 here making the highin the 80s-bermuda, zoysia. What kinda grass yall got?

I am not a grassologist but whatever ours is it starts growing around 50 degrees. If it waited to 70 at night it would only grow a few days out of the year.

Life goes on & on.
If it can go wrong it will. :mad:
The Will the magic wire work. I think so. Had a very brief short, no wires melted or anything like that.
Switch is already bad. Get everything hooked up. Try to make it go. 1 Tiny grunt & nothing. o volts t switch, no volts at fuse. Worst of all no volts in battery.
Took to town, they charged it & said it was good. Had my doubts, & was right.

When I was young , never plant a tree. Will not live long enough to see it grow up. Wrong. Plum tree, red leaf bush, are about 40 feet tall. 2 evergreen things about 12 feet tall. They are all about 8/9 years old, very small when planted.

Have some sunflower seeds. Be fun to watch them turn as the sun goes by. Other weeds need full sun, well not so much, it is killing some of them.

Had some pictures I wanted to post. Can not find them. Will look later.

Saw a rattle snake yesterday, it went under ramp too quick to do anything. First snake of any kind for about a year.

More Later,
Jim

Dam n Jim the last pictures of the grandparents. . .looks like granddad weathered a lot better...:)

Or grandma robbed the cradle when she picked granddad. :laughing:

My wife’s grandmother used to say that it was either Lester or this other boy....

Not as much choice of a spouse when there was little travel and fewer people.

My brother just visited the Tucson area, I found out after he returned home, might have had him swing by and say hi otherwise. I don't know if they took their trailer or just stayed in hotels.. They are from Denver area.

Was getting too hot here, but cooler yesterday and today. Work has slowed some, have energy to install the new glass shower door perhaps tomorrow afternoon..

Yes, Hope all is well. I sure miss the cranky and acerbic wit. Reading your posts is like I am actually there. Had the same feeling reading Louis Lamour westerns as a kid. I would get so engrossed, time would stop.
