Unfortunate damage, but you're still able to be here to tell the tale.................good on you..Your Uncle Bob, Senior Geezer Curmudgeon
It's much easier to promise someone a "free" ride on the wagon than to urge them to pull it.
Luck occurs when preparation and opportunity converge.

No garden for me so far this year. Rain was plentiful, lots of early gardeners got heart broke this spring. I might pick up some plants after this big blow comes past, after it beats up Carolinas..
Education is expensive. Keep that in mind, and you'll never be terribly upset when a project goes awry.

the house on the cliff that was abandoned and burned last year fell into the lake . they burned it so no debris would fall into the lake . nothing left but the slab. no a huge chunk of the cliff fell in from all the rain i guess. big sinkhole in granbury . crazy weather .
