    We had those giant roach looking things that flew (palmetto bugs) when I lived in Mississippi. Nothing like hearing one of those things buzzing past your face when you're trying to sleep. I kept a shoe handy at all times to whack them things! Don't know if I'd take the snow over them, but here I am in bumfuk Pennsylvania...

    I dealt with one palmetto bug. One. That's the worst bug I've ever dealt with, sprayed it with everything I had and finally kersploded it with a frying pan. Took awhile to get a clear shot on it.

    They'd always land on the damn curtains! You would throw something on them and they'd fall down. You had to be quick to find where they went. Little bastards were quick!

    Cockroaches are part of living in the South, I'll never get used to them or the plethora of other crazy bugs.

    Went to brother joes today with my 2 boys. Was cold! Pulled a tree from off of the creek bed with a geo tracker which I forgot to get pics of... slacking today on pics :-/. Split 2 cords of wood, boys rode around and built a fort, and picked brother joe off of the ground.... he tripped over a trailer tongue and saved his beverage.... all in all a very productive and fun day

    Watched it on my phone. I don’t watch many sports. If I can’t, no big deal.
