I've been wearing Carolina boots for years. I've had several different styles over the years but these are my favorite.

I’ve been smoking ribs and a shoulder and I kinda wish I hadn’t.
Can’t even go on the patio to cook there are so many.
I've seen some nice sets on Facebook marketplace. Sometimes for free if you go get them.
Any A/C guy or company recommendations for this kind of stuff?

Is it in one spot, like near a ceiling attic entrance? Or all over?


A few spots are worse than others but it’s all over. Upstairs is a 16x16 room and an adjacent loft.

Anyone have any experience with condensation around molding near attic space? I have a one and a half story, pier and beam home and there is visible condensation around the molding. At first I thought it was.roof leak but the roof checks out fine. Any insight would be greatly appreciated.

Any recommendations for limestone/ gravel company in the Central / Zachary area? I need at least a couple of truck loads for a driveway and parking area.

It just doesn't occur as much as it used to or should.

What is faux finish and how do you do it with a cypress column?


Was about to ask the same thing. Only thing I could find was that it was a paint that looks like stain.

Looking for insight on staining or sealing raw cypress columns. I've got a few to do and not sure what route to go. A professional painter the other day at Home Depot suggested TWP.

Got home about 4pm today and they were everywhere. Seems they've been worse the last few years, at least more than I can recall.
Pat's in Denham is about to install 2 doors on a metal building for me. Haven't experienced much with them yet but I can say they are extremely pleasant and nice to deal with. Jenny is great and very helpful every time I call. Prices seem competitive as well.
Tethrd predator XL. I one-stick but prefer to have a little foot room in the tree. It also has an angled ledge which really makes a big difference in comfort.

What y'all's bait and snare setup?
I have a primary arms 1x prism on a 300 blackout that I use for deer and pigs. It's my favorite setup for anything under ~125 yards. The reticle is very small but once I shot a couple of mags through it, I really started enjoying it.
