It's dying back and could use a good watering--------wait until it rains and until then, it grows slower and needs less cutting----------win/win.

People even throw down seed now to keep it green longer in the winter. I look forward to that last cut in the fall.

I just got some Undercrown coronets (4x32) for these hot nights where I don't want to sit outside for an hour and a half. The petite robusto My Fathers are nice too.

I've noticed that my chickens like cover. They hardly go anywhere that isn't covered by our big oak tree. Go through roosters until you get a good one. Ours keeps his eyes to the sky, and will huddle the chickens up in a small wooded area if he sees a hawk.

If I didn't have the tree cover, I would put up some bushes or a shade sail for them to hide under. Maybe a few elephant ears.

I bought a new frigidaire freezer a few months ago and was getting tons of frost. I thought the seal was bad, but the tech said sometimes they don't fully expand from the factory. He heated it for a few minutes and was done. No ice since.

I have an ecobee and it came with a power extender kit for units without the c-wire. It didn't take long to install. You can set alerts for high/low temp and humidity.

Yeah, going frame by frame I could read the plate

I have a viofo and would recommend it. With a 128gb micro sd card, it'll record a month or two of footage in 3 minute clips. At any point you can press the button and it will lock that footage from being overwritten. It also has parking mode where it only records when it detects motion and this saved us in a parking lot hit and run.

The cam and your phone link through a wifi connection. It doesn't take long to save a video and the app is fairly simple to use.

I got em too! Thanks for the heads up. I thought the announcement was tomorrow.

Boot up

I've been seeing April 1st mentioned in these threads. What is the significance of that date?
