Time Flies or Time Flys?

Doesn't it though. I realized its been at least 3 weeks since I blogged so I thought it was past time. Not a lot going on except work, yard work, and golf. I just started gettin into golf this summer and it's a lot of fun, and of course somewhat frustrating. I have a large lot which is great except for the upkeep. I've got tons of pine trees and I'm continually thinning them out. I had a climber out last friday and had him take down 9 which were dead or dying. Mistletoe and bark beetles get a lot of them. He doesn't do any cleanup, just cuts them into 4 to 5 feet sections. I don't mind and it saves me a lot of money. To see these guys climb these 40 to 50 foot trees and bring them down is really cool to watch. It also reduces the fire hazard which is always on our minds. Oh yea, My dad played golf with us today and beat us soundly. He has been playing a long time and he has got a good game at age 74. It was only his fourth time to play that course, pretty cool.

How big is your property?
Wow, I've only got room for one tiny tree and a few pots of tomatoes in my little square postage stamp yard.

SO you didn;t get the Bush Countdown sorted out? :-( It's so satisfying to sit and watch, too.. lol

Hey y'all. Chandira my lot is .81 of an acre. It's secluded on a culdesac. My nearest neighbor is about 80 yards away and their place is barely visible thru the trees. And we're getting our streets repaved this week, Yea! oh , the little things in life.

kaliblue, I agree you should take up golf. One good thing is I usually find more balls on the course than I started with. They never wear out and if they become dirty you just wash your dirty balls. You're ready to play some more.
