re: Do you still cut your own grass or do you hire it out?

I have a side job in lawn care. I have 18 yards and turn down work all the time. Plenty people don't cut their own grass.

I have a lawncare business and cut grass for an older guy whom is openly gay and very liberal. He had a successful career and is retired now but when I cut his lawn we talk about politics and things like that. We are able to have a sensible conversation knowing each other has a huge difference of opinion and I find his viewpoint interesting that he sees the world in such a different view from me. But anyway he went to one of the No Kings rallies and he said he hated it because "it wasn't anything besides a bunch of old, angry, disgruntled lesbians" lol.

When we were there last year for Christmas toward the front left of Epcot in the lake there was an area we were walking over a bridge and there were about dozen bass I could see. None looked smaller than 4 pounds to me with several looking quite a bit bigger and it looked like they were on beds. I am going back this year around the same time anybody want to share roughly what the cost is?

Sometimes I wonder if it is the gafftop catfish explosion. You can barely even fish in some places and they are way into freshwater too. I have never seen so many along with sharks.

Any reward card holder can still check a bag for free. I think at booking allows you to do it for up to 8 people with you.

I was looking at a trip over Christmas also for skiing if not this year maybe next. Is skiing good this time of year or is this a trip that should be planned more January or February?

If I was putting down in Morgan City I would seriously consider locking into the Bayou Teche at Patterson. If you get in there early ride to where there is grass around the cypress trees and throw buzz baits. As it gets later throw crankbaits around any tied up boats or ships. Sometimes throw 4 or 5 times to the same spot then mix in some senko's around the cypress trees and grass. The bigger bites come early but you will get a limit.

This is for sure a harmless Plain Bellied Watersnake.

I have went to several and I really have enjoyed Majestic Elegance. Now of course they may be some very high end one people may suggest but considering cost and how much I enjoyed my time I really like the Elegance.

I am more concerned about other men worrying about what another guy drinks out of.

Both of my kids were top in their high school class and received the max academic scholarship from Nicholls State. They both also receive TOPS, they live on campus in a dorm which is semi private. After the scholarships and TOPS we are still paying about $3200 per semester.

This is one of the reasons we chose Southwest often.
re: It's Travel Ball Season Folks
Posted by DownSouthTiger on 2/18/25 at 11:56 am to SouthboundTiger
Mine plays travel baseball but also Biddy Basketball and a tackle football league in the fall. He just turned 9 but alot of you have the misconception we all spend lots of money and play all year. That is not true as all of our tournaments are within 2 hours of our house and we play 8 tournaments in the spring. We do not play in the fall so that the kids can also play basketball and football. It doesnt cost me a fortune as alot of people say and we will not buy a single hotel or go out of state. He will even play rec ball but miss some games so he can play with his friends on the all star team. We do practice every other week in the fall on a Sunday so it keeps them sharp and their skills up a bit.
What travel ball does give them is the chance to be on a team where they are probably not the best kid like rec ball. I had people that played college tell me that you should never be on a team or a league where you are the best player as nothing will drive you to improve and I think that was some pretty good advice.

re: Anyone planning on getting chickens with the current price of eggs?
Posted by DownSouthTiger on 2/12/25 at 1:53 pm to bbvdd
What I think everyone doesnt realize is with the huge price increases in chicken feed you wont be coming out ahead. A good bag of layer feed that was $7 or so 15 years ago is not over $25.

I put a little away each check in a 529 invested in mutual funds when they were born and here and there added some birthday money from an uncle and they ended up with 25k. With academic scholarships and Tops they just had almost enough. Well one did and the other worked and paid some so had some left.
