Well, here I sit in the woods a half mile off my property. This all all state land and property goes forever. Miles and miles. My neighbor Al called. Said his dog Buddy died. Heart attack or similar. Not even 9 years old. So he wanted me to get his wagon and bring it out so he could take Buddy home. He’s a good mile or mile and a half put. They walk their dogs back there every day. Take em off the leash and let them run around. Guess it was too much for Buddy this time. He was a very nice gentle dog. Some kind of mutt. 80-90 pounds. I had to tell Karen (Al’s wife) as she came thru my yard ( she was way ahead of Al with their other dog). That sucked. So Al is getting Buddy and I’m waiting for him to get back. I’ll offer to take Buddy to his vet in my truck. I don’t think he wants Karen to see Buddy dead. I understand.
Round 1.5 of leaf duty completed today. Gonna be 8-10 rounds. Last one will be mid December. Joy, joy.
I haven't done the first round. It's been wet and going to stay that way till mid week. But most of the leaves should be down by then.
Flew in a bedroom upstairs. I closed the door, opened the window, and he flew out. So he got free room and board for 12 hours…and a cat to keep him company.
Good grief! How did he get in your house in the first place? I bet Whiskey’s mad that you opened the window. He wanted to have a good hunt!
I may get to the leaves in the next day or so. Temps are 30s overnight and 40s with sunshine daytime. Just need the wind to slow down...
That's what I'm thinking. And we had our first frost this morning...
We call that the first day of no bugs season.
ROTFL. You shouldn't be giving me that idea.
Afternoon... The wind removed a lot of the leaves from the yard. Got the blower out and moved what I could to the curb. Now I wait and see what the wind does to move them back.
It’s so true! I think strangers are going to stop talking to me altogether because I will either do this or start giggling uncontrollably thinking about doing this.
I thought I knew wind until I moved into the valley here in CA. We had Santa Ana’s last weekend that were just crazy. The pool was nice and clean. Now we are still digging out the leaves that ended up in there.
I’m doing driveway crack repair now. Doing half now and half next Spring. Dont want to buy a new driveway.
