Me, I would have just shot him but I do admire your methods. Accidental death

Window Bars at Home Depot…

The overdose guy was a thug in simple terms…

The neighborhood has improved over the years…

Back then I had my aluminum windows taken one night to sell for scrap…

My dump trailer had the tires stolen.

On the newly painted side of the house the graffiti said “Wight Boy Get Out”

Interesting times in the 80’s

When I moved I showed the house to a very nice family from Vietnam that really liked it but when leaving the neighborhood thugs glared at them from across the street… later the father called and said they were afraid and decided not to rent.

After the family left one of the thugs came up to me saying I better not try and move Asians into their hood… we will run them out.

The most racist people I have ever met are not white.

The neighborhood now is almost all Spanish speaking and quiet… lots of landscapers and construction laborers.

I could write a book about my experiences becoming a homeowner at 22…

Lots of good older retired neighbors that offered encouragement… they said we worked so hard and now the gang bangers are running it into the ground…

3 things happen to a gang banger… they die early or go to prison or find Jesus and turn their life around…

Die early by being shot or survive and have the scars.

I bought a 5w solar panel for my ring camera so I can move it closer to the main gate... I plan to mount it on a pole with the little solar panel.

The little yellow 6000lb plow showed up on a big rig and we ain’t got no ramps. It works and cuts in a nice pipe with minimal damage.

The extra coming out of the ground is to bore under the road and a drain pipe to the ped, so a cut and coupler isn’t needed.

New gear assembly for my garage door opener.

Replaced the JD 240 2 stroke spin trim (1985 vintage ECHO) with a New ECHO SRM 266. Nice that it comes with a 5 year warranty, it is a bit heavier, but also has some extra cubic centimeters for some more power.

Picked up a Spare set of standard style blades for the JD X 500 riding mower.

I bought the Echo srm 226 last winter/spring on TBN recommendation. Best dam weedeater I've ever had. Easiest starting too.
