Got some of them on my backporch, whiskey drinkin' lights! When the string turns into one light it's time to go to bed

I like that rule of thumb, I'm going to use it from now on, if you don't mind.

Conversely, if the ash tray turns into twelve and you can't hit any of them, open the screen door and look for the Mrs. LOL

Kurt is going to hit us with a hijack

We agreed on Chinese laterns, but I ended up with dragonflies

Thursday.

The guy told me the frost wall (short one) will only take about 1/2 an hour but the retaining wall (rebar pic) will be most of the day.

It's an 8ft wall with a small return into the house foundation, then at the driveway end it has a 45 degree turn that will taper down to 6ft.
It's going to allow me to level out the upper yard a lot.

I think most of Kurts threads turn out like this. Not sure why...





Must be the crowd he hangs with.

Thinking back...your right, wonder why.

My threads are like yo-yo's, all over the place but they always return to the topic at hand.
