Home depot shopper. This guy was rescued from under a loading dock covered in fire ants. Hand reared, bottle fed every two hours.

I don't like coyotes either. They are almost as bad as the pushy people knocking on the door trying to sell you some rip off solar panels.

Re: Random Photos ‘You took’

Hard to see but this is my Tarantula Lucy with her new rock. The old one was too steep for her. She kept falling off.

So I got her a more user friendly one and she's been sleeping on it all day.

Happy Tarantula happy life.

Used to take my kids just up the hill in the fall when they migrate to find mates to catch one for show and tell.

Now that I got reminded, I'll have to take the grandkids up to get one. We got lots of them around here.

They're around here too. I caught her in my backyard. She just walked right up to me. Now she's spoiled with free food and a nice tank to crawl around in.

I try to play with her but she ignores me. Kind of like my dogs...And my wife.

It really was a cool gig for her. She grew up in this town, Friendsville, MD. I believe she is the eldest resident. The Friend Family Assoc. has their museum and library in the old bank building and my mom ran it right up until it's temporary closure due to covid. They call her the town historian. We are related to John Friend, first settler in the region (1765) at the location that became Friendsville. A couple years ago the DAR presented her an award for the work she has done for the community. John and John Jr both fought in the Revolutionary War.

The Vette on trailer had me scratching by head. Runs hot going slow? I dunno. Not a good way to "show off". More like embarrassing. Did they at least drive it to the parade? A nice car like that should be hauled in an enclosed trailer

Yeah. That is a head scratcher. You have a car like that and can't even drive it in a parade????

I would have had the top down and had your mom ride in it instead of that Miata.

Congratulations on all you mom's accomplishments. It's good to see her get the respect that she deserves.

I get tired about just thinking about push mowing on a half an acre.

Re: Random Photos ‘You took’

When we bought this house, it had the worst front yard on the block. I worked it over, and planted a nice (from seed) lawn. It was like a postage stamp, green and pretty, 33 feet by 16 feet. I was traveling for work, and the wife just couldn't send the boy out to do it, and he wasn't going to do it unless he was told, so she hired the neighbor's gardener and it went to ****. He has some sort of nasty grass that made its way off the bottom of their mower into our yard. We had clumps of weeds in the back yard, which they insisted on mowing. Throwing dirt everywhere. What a bunch of clowns. I stopped traveling for business in '06 and fired them. Now the front is drought-resistant plants. Marginally better.

My new dash pad arrived today.

Luckily the UPS driver added tape around the broken area to keep the air from getting out.
