  1. It is Semi-permanent. We just moved in Aug and redid the backyard which pushes into wetlands so I’m leaning towards bald cypress.
  2. Drink beer, wax the truck, and trim your bush…over and over and over again.
  3. The invasion wouldn’t be a problem for me but I did read the invasion is a little overblown, one expert’s opinion anyway. What about a bald cypress?
  4. I’m not feeling good the pac will be helpful this season. It hasn’t in years.
  5. Public money is pouring in on that. I’m a huge dog.
  6. Yea I researched the river birch a bit, I think that would work and they look nice. I’ll need one tree for the pondish area and maybe a smaller shrub like specie for where some runoff occurs. The wife is pretty pissed at me though because I just chopped down about 10 huge trees, those skinny but tall bastards, that hovered over or too close to the house and regrading the area to make a bigger backyard…she thinks I’m nuts. But when finished we can move the kids playground area from the side yard to the back, she’ll get my madness then…hopefully.
  7. I’ve always wanted a black panther. We have 4acres and private but my trashy nosy neighbor might take issue when the cat takes a plunge in their pool during HH summer days.
  8. @dendrite or @tamarack What’s the best tree for a swampy area roughly 100ft from the house? Weeping Willows are nice looking so I am hedging to it but are disease prone amongst a few other other cons. I don’t want a tree that will grow tall either or drop acorns. I just need something that will soak up some standing water that tends to form into a smallish pond in a monsoon season.
  9. We don’t move forward, we just make it great again.
  10. Drinking and especially over drinking is so bad for you. In moderation and socially, cool, but I cringe at the heavy drinkers… don’t be one of them.
  11. Happy Birthday man. Don’t black out.
  12. Yea, I don’t know what happened to him. Only a matter of time before he roots for 60s on Xmas.
  13. Yea. The monsoon and warm nights did it. I have some trees that are fully bare next to others that are struggling to turn colors.
  14. Yup. More sunlight is always good too. I cringe when I see trees overhanging homes. Gutters filled with leaves, moss growing on shingles, and one windy storm away from a roof collapse…nasty.
  15. That’s a lot of correlation there and vague.
  16. I wonder if the bare trees here will start leafing out.
  17. This is why those of us who grew up in the 80s as a snow weenie can’t understand the meh mentality for your age group when ya’ll are so spoiled…you don’t even know how good you have it. But to be fair we are products of our experiences so I can’t fault you for thinking a warning level snow is just ‘meh’ when that for us 80s kids is practically memorable lol. Perspective is everything.
  18. Tblizz meh’ing his way to another power outage while Drylot takes his anger out on a buck execution style.
