With a ride on lawn mower I can just suck it up into the bag in the back.   so much easier than blowing leaves.

I let the leaves fertilize the ground over the winter. We usually hire someone to do a yard cleanup in the spring.

Plus, it mulches them so they compact easier into less bags. I tend to spread the mulched leaves over bulb plants such as hostas.

Nitrogen on your lawn during the winter promotes snow mold. You should cut your grass short, rake up the leaves (or if you're smart pick them up with a mower), and fertilize with a low nitrogen mix.

Is retirement that fucking boring??

I'm not retired. I just care for my property and cars I guess.  :lol

G'morning all. Crazy busy day yesterday as I brewed two batches of beer all while what was supposed to be an hour or so of work for a technology release dragged out over about nine hours  :censored

And what did you brew good sir?

Belgian Strong Dark Ale and an all Citra Pale Ale.

I never wash my car, minus a quick hosing when the windows wind up with an inch of dirty I them. I'll wash my other half's car, but it's also a lot nicer than mine, and it's white. When it's not white, I wash it again.



Also, what is this "rain" you guys speak of?
I just don't understand what they were trying to achieve with any part of the song, either individually or as a whole. You know what? It's the Platypus of Dream Theater songs. That bill doesn't go with that tail, or that strange little furry body, or those webbed feet, and oh god why does it have venomous spurs!? And then you find out it lays eggs too. The difference is that the Platypus is somehow functional despite being a crazy mishmash or leftover animal pieces

Business.   Coz is closer to the lower right in PA.  We met up last time we went to the music festival.   This is an hour away from Pittsburgh.   Western PA.

Good evening guys.

I'm bored as shit. Debating on whether or not I want to go to the harbor and walk/listen to music and just escape for a while.

Problem is that is also my work :lol

evening Jay. I used to go on walks at night all the time and just listen to music, I've been slowly trying to get back into doing it but there isn't many peaceful places that are within walking distance to my house

In other words I'm obsessed with the idea of restoring a car recently, not sure what I would do and if it's even feasible but I've been reading build threads all day.

Want to restore a 94 Honda Accord? I'd gladly donate it... as long as I get to use it when you're done.

...

I drive to my work to walk because I really don't live in a safe area. I'd be too afraid of getting mugged if I were to walk around near my house. Especially with headphones.
