I used to have a nice grass and clover field. I let a buddy cut it for hay. It was the best hay he cut, although a small 1 1/2 acre piece. He brought bed straw in. The piece is junk now. It will cost me a bunch to try and revive it, and the bed straw has migrated beyond where he was cutting. It's a nightmare.The county thinks they are doing me a favor by sending their tractor and mower to cut the ditches if front of my house. I try to get there before they do but sometimes they beat me to it.They don't bother cleaning off the mower deck before making a swath through your ditch. What they are really doing is spreading grassburrs. My little corner of the block has their ditches. So I was busy digging up burrs then mowing.I only spent a couple of hours on it but I'm bushed.
That's a nice area down there. My favorite back in the early 70s was the Tarryall Range, Spruce Grove campground was a primitive campground at the time and would make a great base camp for hiking. You might see one or two people in a weekend. Now the campground is a modern campground with trailer hook ups, etc, what a waste.Yesterday, went out and did some upgrades to the camper before hunting season. I drag it out to the Greenhorn Wilderness in southern Colorado, use it for a base camp.
We like this area. Most days we don't even see another hunter. This is one of those areas where you are gonna walk and walk for your game. Most folks don't want to walk 50 yds. off the road, if that.That's a nice area down there.

Would a chain saw be alright?Planted a couple of cherry trees.
I don't care what Continental Army you're in charge of.
Show up at my place with a hatchet in your hand and you're gonna lose more than your wig.

You left out RWL (Run, Walk, Lay down) and Thunderbird, Skid Row Scotch at it's finest.
Had a friend over from Germany a few years ago during summer. Poor guy nearly drowned in sweat whenever outside in our 32C+ (90F) temperatures. Hottest was 40C (105F) in the parking lot when visiting the National Air and Space Museum at Dulles. Think he was glad to go back to Germany.Well, me got up in de morning, slavin' for bread, sir, so dat every mout' could be fed, poor me, me Israelite.

Going to hang up a new swing for the great niece today, she's two and half. Her Mom brings her down to my Mom's house (92 and going strong) every two weeks for a visit so it's where we meet. My brother and I had wonderful uncles when we were kids so we are making sure she has the same experience where uncles = fun.
