Now that's just gross!

that would be my worst nightmare, someone picking up my nice bread at the market and there is a dead mouse in it. I think I would have a heart attack on the spot

JRB NAS out of Louisiana evac’d their fighter jets to our NAS due to the hurricane. Lots of loud air activity yesterday if you were close enough. I stole this photo from somewhere.

Is your grass that long?? ()

Bailers are expensive. Our next door amish guy neighbor bails for other people as a side business. He is always working on his bailer, mower, tractors, etc. He was over visiting Monday night and said he just finished bailing for the season and was wanting to put it in our roundtop, and all he and husband talked about was what he was fixing on the bailer and tractors.

Saw this in my yard before leaving to take a friend out to eat for her birthday.

Another photo of Monday’s activities. I didn’t take this photo. From where I was, when they’re going in for a landing, if positioned correctly, it is so incredibly loud. I was probably a mile away, as the crow flies.

That has to be a typo... $24K is more like it and that price is even high for a 6yr old baler. $15K is a reasonable price. If I knew someone in my area and made the deal farmer to farmer I probably could get it for $12K.

DW cleaned the top of the table on the patio. It had gotten so dark, it was almost black.
I never knew, MY FAN KILLS MOSQUITOES!!!
To fully appreciate this, you must know how much I hate those little buggers.
It only takes just one to make your life miserable!
I have it 3' away pointed straight at me, to make it hard for them to land and stick me.

Swamp Locust thorns
Long enough to use as deadly weapons!

 

[Peanut]

Neat... I've never seen a swamp locust. usda map has it growing along the mississippi r. I see black locust most of the time, usually a shrub/small tree. Occasionally I see honey locust but it's more rare and much larger. Both have nasty thorns and both are medicinal but for obscure stomach issues.

 

[DrHenley]

Swamp locust has fearsome looking thorns sometimes completely covering the trunk (accidentally running into one could be fatal, LOL), lives by the water and has only one "bean" in the pod while honey locust lives on higher ground and has a long bean pod. Other than that they are pretty much identical. Both are non toxic while black locust is toxic.

I am with my war buddies this weekend. There are fewer of us each year.
Guys I was willing to die for, and they for me. All the shared misery too.
It’s a bond, a Brotherhood, like no other on earth.

 

[Bacpacker]

Have fun RPD

 

[Patchouli]

To anyone who liked my snek photo, she said it was a water mocassin, I don't know that for sure. They dispatched it forthwith.
@rice paddy daddy hope you have a great time at your reunion.

It’s somewhat bittersweet.
One great guy, a friend, is gone due to Agent Orange.
The enemy wounded him but could not kill him.
But our own government did.

I was assuming so... I've heard the names swamp & water locust used interchangeably. Just never seen one.
