If the tree would have been 6' further they would have been crushed. Nice firewood if you have a splitter, or boards if you have a sawmill. 51 minutes ago, BigStewMan said: where does that leave the Bentley owners?

Moderators dtel Posted May 28, 2020 Moderators Share Posted May 28, 2020 Got some wood delivered this morning, to replace what the termites had for lunch. It was the first time with no rain so they brought it, I had about an hour to get it under the porch and organized to still be able to get to what was needed. Started putting up the support structure and got 95% of it done, it's going well. I know it doesn't look like much but it's 13 sheets of plywood, 8 @3/4" and 5 @1/2", a 2x12x10, 3 2x8x12 and 8 2x4x8 and 150sf or R19. It came from a local place and was a good bit cheaper than Home Depot even including a $25 delivery charge $473, I would rather give it to the local store anyway. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grasshopper Posted May 28, 2020 Share Posted May 28, 2020 Mornin' All Getting light in the east. the hours I keep, that Lambo would be more my speed. Didn't mess around with leftover coffee this AM. About 1/2 cup... it got dumped No idea what happened to the boy, I wanna say the light came on. The past couple days, he has been volunteering help to his mom [to do his things ... laundry, cooking...]. It's a start. About got the front half of the property cut/raked clean. Wife likes it. That's fine.... wonder who is gonna maintain it? It is like housekeeping and greenskeeping... notice the "keeping" part. Why "keeping"?.... because you need to keep it how you want. It doesn't stay that way We are/might be getting some new neighbors... Cindy and Mugger. They are family, ... great aunt and uncle to the kid. Known them for many years, no, I do not know Mugger's real name. Nice guy to be friends with. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was going to and I read about that and yes termites do not eat pressure treated wood. But they said they will walk right past it to get to untreated wood. They never touched the bottom wall plate which was treated, they say unless the whole house is pressure treated it does not help to do only part. And really where the damage was is a back bedroom and the spare bedroom above it which is easy to deal with, if it would have been a different place it would have been much harder to deal with. Plus were going to go with one of the bigger companies like Terminix or Orkin to do the yearly thing. I'm not getting any younger and will not be able to do this kind of thing forever. . 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My wife knows how much I like coffee so when she sees it she buys it, I had probably 3-4 bags already and the local store had it on sale yesterday so I am really stocked up now. The bags with the white on top is the new style label, what she got yesterday. saved some coffee I did not drink... 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
