New England B.S. Thread

I'm also hoping for a bumper crop of tomatoes, zucchini, strawberries and mint this year.

 

wife will be doing the veggies. I think her mom does a fair amount as well, and she is on site now too so sorta excited to see what she brings to the table (pun intended)

 

How do you keep any strawberries? Damn chipmunks and squirrels eat all mine before they are ripe

 

I think there is an auto glass place nearby, that's a solid idea. I don't really care to hassle with this place, there's a dumb story about a missing splashguard and they wouldn't have got my money again except they were the first place I could get in for the inspection, and it's the same price everywhere here.

 

Chicken wire cage 100% enclosing them is about the only good way besides 24/7 armed guards. Last year they got all my tomatoes too. The second they started to bud and turn green those little shits ate them.

 

Wife is all sorts of stoked.. already has one ripe strawberry, and more soon....

And since I have no idea what y'all are talking about, "autos" etc, I'm going to take a guess as to it being something I cannot enjoy...

However...

I came home to about 6 inches of this miserable white crap..

@Bridge4 you were wrong my friend...

No bikes tomorrow...
Have a damn pine tree to cut up, and maybe have a fire...

May need to drop another... its affecting the health of my little white birch Grove out back....

 

Need more kids with bb guns (kidding). Or do like my old man and build a squirrel catapult. But the cage is the best idea yet. Neighbor uses fake snakes and owl around his garden and moves them around. Says it helps but has pics of squirrels stealing the snakes.

 

@Chasespeed mine was all gone before dinner! That sucks you have so much. I think Mother Nature hates you.

 

No, the Universe hates me.

 

I was blown away this AM. I have 173 coins I bought at like $0.06. It won’t make me rich, but it’s fun to watch. A friend of mine purchased a single Bitcoin for $500. He calls it a participation trophy and won’t sell it if it goes to a million or down to zero.

If my coins went to Bitcoin level (it won’t) I’d have some fun, but that’s never happening. I bought it to say I have some, not to actually make any real money.

 

I had like 1k shares. Spent like 50 bucks. It's better than gambling that's for sure

 

Wow.

Yeah...that’s a good deal.

 

My buddy's younger brother has made some coin off crypto trading

 

All y’all trying to grow fruit here I am just trying to get a green lawn this year!

 

Been farting around the Telluride forum the last few days to try to get an idea on what to look out for/add etc...

Its a pretty sad place. I know its a newer car, but its not got much action. The owner also doesnt seem to let links that go outside his own "shop" and changes them all to go there. He also spams his shit NON stop everywhere and requires money to not see it.

All while sending you a message RIGHT AWAY, that hes dedicated to all this inclusive bullshit and not to make money, just for the love of the car.

I hadn't read a more pathetic introduction to someone in my life.


I won't be hanging out there much, and there isn't any useful information either, besides finding dealers that don't mark up.


I dunno, sure no one here cares, I just had to let it out somewhere. Not all forums are the equal.

 

Right there with ya, dethatched last weekend and seeded/fertilized. Went with Pennington versus Scott’s to save a buck. Looking back, I Should’ve gone with a higher quality seed but wasn’t about to spend $200 just to overseed. Likely to go back over it with some Kentucky Blue to overseed again.

 

Brattleboro got an inch or two, Dummerston had a bit more actually stick. Mount snow got over a foot.

 

Me too! I ripped up some of the front lawn, put in a walkway, still more to rip up for flower beds, all in an attempt to reduce the amount of grass in front because it gets way too hot out there

 

So, I just got my 2nd vax and should be fully tuned and energized for max reception by the 1st of the month. I've got a nice chunk of time off scheduled (basically whole month of May), and I'll be doing the frame and putting the new suspension on my truck and then looking for a nice shakedown trip.

I thought I might see if anyone else who is "legal" to mingle (current VT guidance is vaccinated people can mingle among themselves) might want to make a trip up to the radar station here in VT. There's a thread on the topic somewhere around here, but here's an article on it as well.

Anyone able/interested?

 

Just FYI in America you can interact freely with whoever you want regardless of what these fucking dictators say

We gotta fight back a little on this stuff. It's experimental. If people want to experiment fine. BUT IT CANNOT BE REQUIRED.
