Might make it by this Saturday. If not, looking forward to checking out the new location.
A neighbor did something similar that looked great for a while. But now all of the boards are warped and it looks pretty bad. I don't think he used the 5/4 deck boards as descried on the Slipfence website.

Even with 5/4 boards, I don't know if you can find wood of high enough quality for these fences to maintain their designed appearance. And if you can find that wood, the price might be prohibitive. Just my observation.
He watched too much of the Superman hype pre-game.

That is some rigorous routine. I’m glad you’re dedicated to the the process!
We had the rosemary feta tonight along with a baked fish dinner and it was great. I don’t always like a lot of rosemary in recipes, but it’s very, very good in this bread. Looking forward to pairing it with some other dishes.

We were glad to finally get by there on Saturday and to take home some of your great bread and other goodies. We haven’t tried the Rosemary Feta or the English muffins yet, but will do so soon and give you some feedback.
The Mary Kate is delicious and is mostly gone. Found some French Butter at Southside Produce today and will try that on the next slice(s). Pimiento Cheese is also very tasty.
Nice to meet you and to share some BR stories. Looking forward to trying many more loaves and extras.

A great talent, great performer and awesome bandleader. RIP
Why didn’t on reporter have the balls last night to ask a question like this:
“Coach, I’m sure fans can respect your admiration and support of your players for the prep and the effort. But, what is your opinion on the prep and game time effort of your coaching staff?”

Bridge On The River Kwai
I was at the State Emergency Management HQ and a military reserve employee of the LA Office of Homeland Security showed me how to text that day. Of course, most of the people I needed to communicate with had never texted either.
I don’t understand the reasons for this level of opposition to this move.
- Is it because of hate for Landry and Nungesser and their kind?
- Is it because people truly believe that this project will save them from hurricanes and coastal erosion?
- Is it because some people were counting on jobs and income from the 3 billion dollar spending?
- Is it because people figure the billions will get spent anyway and they want it spent here (whether or not it’s cost effective).
I get resentment for special interest groups controlling government policy. But my resentment level if much worse of those special interests succeed spending 3 billion rather than succeeding in NOT spending 3 billion.

Or set outflows at certain heights in the levee so when the river is high it let's out water but not when it's low to minimize effect on the channel. Oh wait, that was what this project was.

And to do that would cost $3 Billion Dollars???

Only thing more boring and repetitive than that video is its soundtrack.

And spending $3 billion dollars on this boondoggle would not have changed that fact.
