I use a Taylor K-2006C kit and use the trouble free pool’s “Pool Math” app. It’s stupid easy.

Went in on a work pool. Not leaving me working here all by my damn self.

Shoot. Thanks for reminding me!
I asked for push mower recommendations on the OB. This was before there was an H&G board (2011).

Kicking myself for not pulling the trigger on it when amazon had the 85" on sale for $1700 a couple of weeks ago.

I don't necessarily need a new TV but I'll be price watching that one. Would like to upgrade my living room TV and put the 65" in my bedroom.
Sorry Sooners. Just wasn’t meant to be.

Wish we could have gotten another season of The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance.

Sorry, you misunderstood. I edited to clarify.

I tow with my truck pretty infrequently but enough to where it would be silly for me to rent one every month or so.

I pulled a half dozen earlier today and they’re all between golfball to tennis ball sized. According to the internet that’s about the size you want them to be. Gonna try roasting them tomorrow and see how they taste.

Also plucked a cabbage and covered my citrus trees. Everything else should be fine in the cold for a couple of days.

Finally was able to look in on the garden in the daylight hours! :lol:

Cabbage is looking great with a couple ready to harvest.



Those that have grown beets, how do I know when they’re ready to pull? Some of these look like they’re getting some size to them.

I’ve killed hundreds of deer with a 30-06 over the years. Depending on the load, some barely made an entrance and exit hole.


First deer I ever killed was with a 30-06. Hit it right in the shoulder. Went through the shoulder and disintegrated the heart. Dropped it on the spot. No exit wound.

ETA: I've never made a shot that good (or lucky) on a deer ever again.
My insurance is about quadruple of what it was about 5 years ago. Electricity bill is about double, water is about triple. But, big screen TV's are still affordable!
