grasshopper Posted April 20, 2023 Share Posted April 20, 2023 ... like me and my weedeater LOL -------------------- today is an unofficial holiday.... I am still trying to understand the how/why of.... for us, it was more of a 10, 2 and 4 LOL chuckling to myself when/if it becomes a national holiday --------------------- a beauty of a day. high 30's... on its way to mid 80's. The mesquites are leafing out.... no more frosts for a while. My lilac is starting to bloom. Jujube trees have leaves. The spring flowers/weeds are giving it up... drying up. Waiting for the AirForce to break the quiet... then, it will be time to crank up the stereo. Had a few very crisp [and loud] sonic booms the other day. Not sure if the AF got some new toys or if atmospheric conditions are at play.... or both. was digging thru my vinyl... found this 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave1291 Posted April 20, 2023 Share Posted April 20, 2023 72 here @ 11AM. Nutso weather. Down and rain til next week then we'll see. Cold the past few days so we're still takin that roller coaster til the heat hits. Got the lil part for the lawn spreader yesterday so it's a good day to play with that. I'll see what else I can break putting it on. Then I think I'll mow. Gotta jump on @jthose windows of opportunity when ya can w/the weather. @grasshoppermight just have a couple Hydra lp's here. I'll have to nose. Not too shabby. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grasshopper Posted April 20, 2023 Share Posted April 20, 2023 that's what I call "Spreading the lawn"... random association I've been to many garage/yard sales... they really aren't selling the yard or garage... a little minor surgery today. I have a thorn in my foot. I can hear you muttering,"You should be wearing shoes, dimass" I was. It went through the sole. Got it out of the shoe... Needlenose pliers fix that. It seems to have left the tip in my foot. The hard part is getting my foot around to where I can see the object of my affection... or infection... as the case may be. You would think that someone who puts their foot in their mouth as often as I do, but.... 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
