The post whore thread.

While i give her shit about her garden skills, at one time her gardens were amazing. Hopefully with her being retired and focused on the property she will have enough growing we can set up at one of the three farmers markets held each week through late october.

One of the things I like about visiting my sister in Cave Creek, Arizona, for Christmas was her tomato plants were still producing.
We would have fresh tomatoes while Denver had feet of snow.
She didn't have time to put a lot of effort into gardening, but they seemed to flourish in the fall and winter when temperatures finally got relatively cool.

I've never seen Trex fail before, but here you go.

Hmm. Seems like having your gutter drain on the porch isn't a good idea.

[Irving]

That's what I initially thought, but since there were three or four of them, I think those might have been defective product and the water certainly isn't helping that really bad one.

Reminds me... need to price out Trex, want to get a deck put in soon

Here is some more awesome hail carnage while we're at it.


This tree got absolutely pummeled.


We've all seen vehicle damage before. This was on a large family farm that must have had 100 vehicles sitting around this farm. The older stuff wasn't as beat up as this new one though.

Hail....not your buddy.

Strong updraft equals high damage unfortunately. It really does seem unfair when mother nature deals you a shit sandwich and a smack in the face at the same time.

When you're young you don't think about it, that whole "at least you have your health" bit is some real damn shit.

I just got done battling a sinus infection that has been kicking my ass for 8 weeks. I was miserable every day...it's unbelievably relieving to be able to breath through my nose again.

Supposedly, AZ is a good place for people with allergy & sinus issues.

I've never been able to breath well through my nose anyway, unfortunately. It's the reason I'm not an astronaut. Plus all the other requirements.
