I'll be doing the rest of the lawn in a few days. I figured what I have spent seeding, top soil, fertilizer, weed control, thatching, aeration. pver the year has been in the $1,000's. I just got tired of it all plus the dogs were tearing it up tracking dirt and mud into the house was the final straw. I just had to do something different even if it is pricey. Good luck with your lawn Maryann. 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After living here for 19 years I'm finally getting to be a real Texan! I just need to develop a taste for Dr. Pepper and say y'all when talking to one person. Love bluebonnets. Bluebell used to be my favorite ice cream. Grew up on it. Quit eating it when they had issues and shut down the plant for awhile. Replacement was Publix ice cream and it tastes just as good if not better and it’s cheaper too.

For now, this is a stock picture somewhere in TX. Growing up there were fields everywhere you turned. It was so beautiful. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Husky1987 Posted April 25, 2023 #91780 Share Posted April 25, 2023 Speaking of flowers…it’s tulip season up north of us in the Skagit Valley. And also time for the cherry blossoms on the quad at the most beautiful campus in the world (yeah, I’m biased). 24 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare h20skibum Posted April 25, 2023 #91781 Share Posted April 25, 2023 Saw this while out for our afternoon walk. K-9 training and handling in progress. There is a local kennel that specializes in raising and training K-9s. (German shepherds, Belgian Malinois, Dutch shepherds). They offer a 3 month training class for trainers, and a 1 month class for handlers. We have seen them training in different areas around the county, to simulate real world environments. I think this is where many departments, across the country, get their k-9s and their training. The award for furthest traveled today goes to Colorado Springs, Co. Also saw units from Missouri, Illinois, Ohio, and of course Pennsylvania. It is interesting to see them work. 10 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd last about 2.5 minutes on one of those boats.... no Windjammer or Schooner Bar. On 4/18/2023 at 8:18 PM, Ozark_Kid said: It's been so long since I watched a. Episode I had forgotten all about that show. With the talk about the Deadliest Catch brought back memories. One of Mike’s best friends who was going to be his best man died when the fishing vessel he was on capsized in 1987. This was just one month before we got married. I had only met Andy once so I didn’t know him very well. All crew onboard except one died. 😥 Maybe someone from here remembers hearing about it? https://www.upi.com/Archives/1987/01/09/An-intensive-search-Friday-failed-to-turn-up-any/1674537166800/ On 4/18/2023 at 9:19 PM, Sea Dog said: …I recorded it to watch Friday night. I’m interested in that new female captain that was featured in the movie the “Perfect Storm.” The actress played George Clooney’s love interest. Apparently the real life captain was the one who urged the crew of Andrea Gail to turn around from the storm. She and her boat made it back safely. The crew of the Andrea Gail did not. Her name is Linda Greenlaw. That was so sad about the Andrea Gail. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There’s not really any difference between Houston, Dallas, El Paso, Brownsville or Amarillo. People say y’all all over Texas. Maybe your friends weren’t around any true Texans or transplants that have picked it up. On 4/19/2023 at 11:29 AM, HBE4 said: My step-daughter lived in Houston for 6 years, beginning in 2016. She added "Y'all" and "Fixin" to her vocabulary pretty quickly. Every time I went to visit, I heard "Y'all" from her friends. She never did get used to be referred to as a "Ma'am" however. Now that she's back in NY, the "excuse me, ma'am" has been replace by "Yo, Lady!". I wonder which she prefers? 🤣 Born and raised in Texas and I never really got used to being called ma’am. Not sure why, but I think because I always considered it for someone older. I suppose it would fit now. 😆 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
