Good to know Doc. Continued success in your recuperation.

OK, I Googled it. Deisel Particulate Filter. From what I've been reading this afternoon it sounds like one of those seemingly good ideas that doesn't work worth a damn. Sorry about the double post.

Pardon my ignorance but what is DPF. Is that the same as DEF?

At this time of year temperatures in the mid 90s are pretty normal, even a little low. I only really pay attention when it gets above a 100°F. No, it doesn't quit growing. I mow every 7 to 10 days all through the summer. One of the best things that I have ever done was, when we moved here...

It's actually been cooler here in East Texas this summer. We've only had about 4 days over 100°F and most have been in the mid 90s. Still hot but bearable. When working outside, I drink 80-100 (at least) fluid ounces a day of water and sports drinks. Water alone doesn't cut it as I start...

Welcome.

What he said.

Yes I saw it. I put out granules for grubs about 2 or 3 times a year on about an acre of the yard surrounding the house. I use a Scott's push broadcast spreader. It's hard work at my advanced age. The other 3 acres of yard I spray with SEVIN. That's a lot easier. I do it to keep the hogs...

Made my first full mow last week. I'd done a couple of partials to hit the high spots and mulch leaves before that. My yard looks like hell. It's never recovered from being worked over by hogs a couple of years ago. It's all weeds and junk grass. I sprayed pre-emergent earlier in the year...

Well, hello there, welcome and glad that you found us.

Same to you and everyone else on here. I poured a toddy at 11:45pm and finished it at 12:30 am. I took the dogs out and then went to bed. I lead such an exciting life.

I know where you're coming from. Many years ago, I paid over $4K to fix the back of a $10 rescue dog ... but she was MY rescue dog and it was worth every penny as it gave her another 6 years of useful life. That dog spent its whole life within 10' of me. It's been over 12 years and I still...

I bet that you are. :sorry:

I don't think that it works like that. :biggrin: Mosquitos and biting flies don't bother me that much but chiggers can see me coming at 50 paces. They are the Devil's spawn.

After all these years I find that out. You know what they say about "assume". :biggrin: It's a pleasure to finally know you ma'am.

Does your engine overheat while the a/c is blowing hot air?

Like you both, I am a battery tender guy. I haven't looked in a long time but they used to make small solar chargers for cars. You placed the small solar panel on your dash and plugged it into the cigarette lighter (when cars used to have such things). Something like that could be easily...

Bordercollie, I'm usually a live and let live kind of guy. If it doesn't bother me then I don't bother it. The only exceptions are hogs and armadillos, especially hogs. If the armadillos are just passing through, then I let them go. However, I don't take any prisoners when it comes to hogs...

He doesn't actually live there. In fact, I don't think that he's been there more than twice in the last 5 years. He has "staff" to look after the place. He owns a nutritional supplement/vitamin company up in New Jersey. He uses the place as a "retreat" for his employees and paying guests...

My neighbor has peacocks. I've only seen the peacock once on my place but the hens come visit for a couple of days every few months. They terrorize the outdoor cat and will even gang up on the dogs when they are outside. I had to take the cat to the vet for a peck wound on her side the last...
