Those of you with 100k+ miles have you changed out your shocks and struts? I've heard they're pretty much done around 100k but I'm at 120k and they still seem pretty good. Doesn't ride like new but notice more harsher bumps and body lean.

You throw the dunks directly into the pond?


Yes, I try to space them out as best I can but obviously they float where ever they go and I try to concentrate them more towards the woods side because thats where they are mainly at. Been doing it for a couple of years now and it seems to work.

WTF is Sermorelin?


I've always thought it was what they would give you before testosterone. Looks like it has the same benefits but testosterone is much cheaper and better.
I have a 1/4 acre pond right behind my house and woods behind the pond. Before if I was by the woods in the evening fishing I would get torn up. I buy a 20 pack of dunks from amazon and throw them all in there. No more mosquitos. I do that about every two months during the summer.
I've been using Prairieville animal hospital for years now and have been very satisfied. I use Dr Procell.

If this is in Louisiana--and this is one area where Louisiana is better than most states--then either it is your land or else your dad did you dirty. Land your dad inherited from your grandfather would have been your dad's separate property. If he died without a will, then it would go to you and any other children of your dad, not his wife or stepchildren. If he died with a will, the only way it could go to his wife / your stepmother is if your dad willed it to her. Maybe you should talk to a lawyer who specializes in wills and estates.


When my dad died my brother and I had to sign over our share of the property during the succession to my mom. My mom got half and my brother and I got half. We signed our share over to her then later she made a will with my brother and I where we split everything 50/50 when she passes. We could have been asses (which the attorney said happens all the time) and made our mom pay us something for our share.

What I'm trying to say is I'm pretty sure you're entitled to half of the property if your dad didn't have a will. If iremember correctly money stuff like bank accounts 401k etc all went to my mom. Like everyone else is say call an attorney tomorrow.

And keep us updated.
I've used 5 gallon buckets for tomatoes, cucumbers etc. It will produce them but not a lot and not big. Even cherry tomatoes have problems producing. Just not enough root space. They're great for herbs though. Only herb that kinda struggles is basil.

Does anyone know where the ball is? Did the fan keep it? Give it to Morris or LSU?

I've always wondered.
Very cool picture of your uncle. Those dudes just oozed coolness without even trying.

Go ahead and plan to spend the night so you can get a second day out of it, you won't regret it.

And one thing most people don't realize is the civil war museum is basically across the street from the WWII museum. You can walk to it from the WWII museum so you might as well hit it up as well. Its small so it wouldn't take much time. It has the second most civil war items behind the Gettysburg museum.

Was that an MP dropping the dude in the black shirt khaki shorts at the :47 mark?
Update your post once you move forward, please. I have a metal roof that is 20 years old with original screws. No leaks or anything but I know it is getting to be close to replacing the screws.

My Papa was a Seabee for 23 months overseas. Went to most of the islands. Said Peleliu was the worst all around. Always said he felt so bad for the Marines coming back from the lines. Also said his proudest moment was being picked to help build the monument for the fallen Marines.
My brother has the picture of him standing next to it after it was built. Very cool to see the same monument in today's time.

300 billion pennies were minted. There will never be a shortage of them.
Eight star tips for the eight states/provinces? If so not even trying to hide it.

Yes, they go all the way up to Canada.
Dalton Hilliard is the first LSU player that I can remember being a fan of from when I was a kid. Always will be one of my favorite players.
That was just for the fish.

Someone mentioned Slades. Looked them up and going to give them a call. Looks like the closest place to me.
Got a quote for $776 for 25 bass and 1000 fathead minnows. Does that sound right?
Just googled green sunfish and I definitely have those.
Have roughly 1/3 of an acre private pond. Has a fair amount of bream, different species but I can't tell the difference. One gets pretty big and the other is a typical small bream.

The bass are the problem. If I walk around the entire pond fishing for 30-45 minutes I may get 1 bass maybe 2 and sometimes none at all. And all the ones I catch are small. 6-10 inches and occasionally I'll catch one a little bigger. Previous owner said before it flooded in 2016 it wasn't unusual to catch them up to about 2lbs. I've been there 4 years now and the biggest one I have caught was maybe a 1lb-1 1/2lbs and haven't caught one close to that since. Myself and my son are the primary fisherman with my son bringing friends but they mainly fish for bream.

Pond is approximately 16 feet deep in one area and 12 feet in another area. Previous owner said he put in a bunch of christmas trees and he added 3 6ft concrete culverts that stand upright.

I have a septic pump connected to weighted hose that is connected to a diffuser for aeration at around 8-10 feet deep. That was as deep as I could go and still get bubbles to come up.

I called Louisiana pond management and gave someone all the above information and someone else is supposed to call me back tomorrow to see what they can do.

Just wanted some thoughts from here because I know they will be pushing for more so they can make more. I know with that small of a pond there can only be so many and so big but I've fished similar sized ponds and have done much better.
