Was there a lot of vehicle traffic at that spot? I had some spots like that from where we hauled equipment to backyard. I used a fork to loosen up the soil and went back with sand mulch mix.

Glad to hear they fixed the problems. That was the main reason I didn’t go with auto deploy on the one I bought last year.
I’ve know quite a few very successful people that have ditched their American brides for foreign women. In some cases the grass looked greener, but turned out to be astroturf. One poor guy with Russian bride, left for overseas project and came home with only pocket change to his name.
We pretty much lost all our crane operators overnight. Had to ship some in from OKC and Tulsa. Going to be interesting to see how this shakes out when the refineries get into TAR season. Big oil could push us around on Chem side, but tech has much deeper pockets.
It is very good money. So much so, that I’ve made 3 dry runs checking commute times. 2+ hours one way is too much for me.

Provided they can find lodging. Hell, even RV spots are hard to come by. But they are making a killing. I think Google has contacted every person with master electrician certs in a 200 mile radius of one of their sites. Crane operators is another one. We are having a tough time competing with them.
Well they started well before sunset on my street yesterday. I was out talking to neighbor across the street and they kept landing on us.

They are swarming around street light across the street, don’t seem to be as bad as last night. Webb park area.

Limpkins are awesome but noisy as hell
They aggravate the hell out of me during duck season. But there’s a flock down there doing their best at land building using snail shells. There’s a couple islands they really like to eat them on apparently.

Bonine seems to be effective. Best thing I’ve seen at curing it is weed.
Bedrock in LA coastal plains? :lol: That’s going to be one hell of a drill shaft.

My neighbor had his PhD from Texas A&M in AH. He was a professor at LSU. That’s all I got.

You’re welcome. :lol:
First year in almost 20 I haven’t hunted that area.
Took the safety off 4 times this morning. Old bastard wouldn’t give me a clear shot thru the mesquites. At one point he was standing next to a mule deer about 70 yards away, both staring in my direction. Fun hunt nonetheless, they were ripping in the dark until 9:45. Once the sun got high and the wind kicked up it petered out. I’d still be out there, but I have to bring wife to the Strait concert this afternoon.

The road is black from gazillions of tarantulas migrating for mating season
Got to witness that in TX panhandle a couple years ago. Wasn’t as pronounced a movement last year. It’s disgusting to roll your windows down and listen to the crunching under the tires. Anyway, saw 4 rattlers the other day turkey hunting. See more during dove season.

More than likely got pinned next to a laydown.
It’s very dry up here. Sounds like I’m walking on Doritos when I’m turkey hunting.
When I moved to TX panhandle a few years ago, I had multiple run ins with spiders in a very short time frame.
First was a huge wolf spider that jumps out of flower bed, causing me to run into street like a girl. Next door neighbors were out and old lady asked what my problem was, she thought rattlesnake. Explain the situation and she replies “oh honey, just wait until the fall tarantula migration”. I kinda chuckled and dismissed the comment.
Few days later I see a BR moving across back patio as I was rearranging stuff. I decided to get a pic of it before killing it. Snap pic, look down and the thing is gone. Only thing close was a piece of patio furniture I promptly pulled into yard and set ablaze.
Shortly thereafter, I get in crawl space to pull some wires. As I get to location, I roll over and look up and all I can see is BW egg sacks in floor joists. I mean as far as I could see. It was at that point I debated burning it all down.
Fast forward 6 months, mid September I’m walking down street close to dusk and I see something moving on edge of road, then something a little further down. It’s fricking tarantulas, and they are everywhere. The kids in the neighborhood are out picking them up playing with the damn things! Counted close to 30 that day and migration didn’t peak for another week or so.
