  1. When that happens to me I'll put $20 in and fill up when I get back home. I always found your area to be cheaper for gas, not sure why Springfield sells it cheaper but when I worked out there, I'd fill up before I came home.
  2. Did you try Seresto, I swear by it, in 5 years no flea problems and there have only been two ticks on my dog in that time and they were dead when I took them off.
  3. Bad news was on the 6th hole and it down poured and with the wind I got soaked. Good news, we won the match anyway. Didn't even have time to get my raincoat out it came so suddenly, I just got the bag cover down in time so my bag didn't get soaked.
  4. There's a golf course in Oakham MA that has tons of bird houses throughout the course, they even use bird houses as yard markers. I saw so many different birds when I played 18 there last summer I had to get my bird book out to see what they were.
  5. HRRR looks good for storms about 5-7 here, may interrupt my golf match.
  6. I've only had one day working in the yard where they bothered me, last few times nothing except for a few wasps.
  7. If they still have piles this year after the winter we had wonder what it's like on a good year, like 2015, snow til June?
  8. The cat jumped on the bed and my wife found three crawling on the bed, she got them before they found her as they surely would have. I'm going to have to stay on top of pesticide this year if the ticks are going to be bad, the winter did us no favors in the department. How do you treat your dog? I've been using the Seresto collar with great success last few years.
  9. We need a before picture before we congratulate you on your lawn growing skills. Looks really good now though.
  10. Just pulled the first tick of the year off my leg, must have just got there, it wasn't attached yet. I sprayed around the perimeter of the house yesterday with Demon and treated the lawn with the Bayer product. Also got a new Seresto collar for the dog, still I got one.
  11. I heard people calling in on the radio said they were going for $2,500, is the girl that good? I'd sell them too, no one's worth that much.
  12. I have that problem when I try to post pics from my phone, is there a way to resize on the phone?
  13. Oh yeah, took care of that. Freeze warnings up there tonight, would have been a cold morning on the boat.
  14. We drove 4 1/2 hours to Oswego to fish on Lake Ontario and they cancelled both days due to wind. Cost me a night at the hotel and $60 in gas.
  15. I planted some a few years ago, they do grow like weeds, not sure if it was 4-6 feet but it was quick. I planted 6 burning bushes too, they really grow fast. Two years ago I cut them down to 3 feet high, they're already 7 feet high this year.
  16. My brother in law got a mama with 3 cubs on one of his game cameras Sunday.
  17. I always prefer an 18 hole course over 9, no matter how nice the 9 are.
  18. I would say based on what I see in my area over 90% of new homes are built with central ac now, percentage might even be higher overalll. The high priced homes it's 100%.
  19. My sister bought one but needs two batteries to do the whole lawn.
  20. Just got mine done, it took an hour and 45 minutes and even got a start on my tan.
  21. What he says is true but the problem I had with it one year is I had a large section of some species of grabgrass that used to clog and bog down my lawn tractor, I used to call it gorilla grass. Thankfully I planted regular grass one year and it never came back.
  22. The nice thing about that tool is you don't have to bend over and you can pull the weed and toss it into your wheelbarrow all in one motion. First year I got it I yanked about 200 dandelions out and it never bothered my back.
  23. I bought a weed puller at HD, works well for getting the whole root out, I yanked out about 100 of them in my lawn. I think I paid #30 for the tool. I just go around with my wheelbarrow, yank them out throw them in the wheelbarrow and dump the load in the woods. WaLensee 39 in.
