CannaGranny’s Corner a Thread For General BS and Good Will On BudBuilders

[BlueCollarBob]

Water has gone. One thing about how it floods here is it happens quick, and it goes down quick, it’s all the damage to the roads that are slow to be fixed. We literally have several thousand miles of gravel roads here.
My drive had ruts, some three feet deep.
Sun is shining today and 70* expected..

In the mountains here, too. The quick rise and and fall of flood waters sounds similar. We don't have as much gravel road, tho. Most of that is on private land with long drives or National Forest. State maintained roads are mostly paved, if poorly. In the Summer, they have an annoying habit of spraying tar and spreading fine gravel over it on rural routes. It would be better if they did nothing. All that clickety noise of stuff kicking up under the truck at tar streaks down the side gets me fuming, lol.

Hope you have a beater to get around in and keep the new ride nice until they get the roads straight. 3' ruts are crazy.

 

[Tremojem]

Wow, three feet deep ruts are no fun. I'm just glad you're on high ground. So glad your friend is safe. In the past you have shared with me that you have a very nice piece of property that is filled with gorgeous gardens and fruit trees. I could be wrong, so forgive me if I am. If so, all good on that front...I hope! Water damage to soil and growth can be devastating and I pray you're good. All the best to you.

About protests and politics...I fucking hate that I spend even a second thinking about it. Yes, I agree...no matter what wing you choose. It's all a joke. Enough said, I love it here, and I don't want to shit on this cool vibe here.

Well I do and I don’t lol. I have a Toyota Tacoma 4x4 that I bought new in 2000. She has low mileage and has been kept garaged but..that truck will crawl a rock wall standing straight up! I mainly use her to haul garden stuff, and for when nothing else can get out.
They do that tar stuff down South in Mo., and I get it! All that crap coming back up on your vehicle.

You are always welcome here, regardless of your stance on anything!
American values are etched in my very being. Free speech is number one. I’m Native and my people tell stories of a time when our very language was forbidden.
I too am a Rebel at heart, but if it’s against America as a whole, man I can get testy quick.
I want a better place for my grandchildren. Those that don’t realize that we have it better here than any other place in the world, have never been off the island.
So, feel free to share..always! But, don’t be surprised if others are just as quick to share in opposition. As long as we remain respectful it’s a no holds barred discussion.
The mind is like a parachute.. it does not work, if it isn’t open.

Nothing here. All of a sudden since recreational you hear nothing about any busts. I know our government is being pushed to reclassify cannabis.

Yes that's what I was getting at, it was the devils weed and must be stamped out inform on your neighbor. Once places started to legalize and no chaos was created and drunk driving went down it looks like thy finely caught on. I asked this because I see a few folks still worried about 4 plants in a 2 plant zone. The arbitrary rules they put in place seemed like a desperate attempt by the naysayers to hold onto some power. Its just good to see after 50 odd years of hiding we can live almost without fear of being busted being 2 tokes over the line.

 

[Tremojem]

Love our country...maybe its why I am so upset lately. It just seems like a small group of people want to destroy it.

And please, do yell from the rooftops, your indigenous language and your glorious stories. (I hope I am saying that correctly, as I am not the smartest person here by any measure.) I totally respect and and encourage it. You and I had a discussion about this at the bad place, and I will never forget how you educated me on a few things, and thank you.

Rock on CannaGranny!

 

[Beachwalker]

I'm blaming the Donald for waving his hand to clear the golf course of clouds with no concern on where the clouds went. You can see it too as he stands on the first tee and with a wave of his hand the clouds clear and he gets the fine weather and we get the shit.

i live near a golf course.. wtf?!?!



who knows maybe Steamroller will have a long weekend out of it!!!!

 

[steamroller]

30f today with 30-50mph wind.
Steady 30mph all fucking day.
Fun on the roof. And yea the snowflakes just make it a joy to behold.
I'll take any day off I can get. Going to end up working till I die, which makes the sooner the better.
My company does not know how to say no, so I offered to help them learn~!

Not his golf course obviously then. I'm not 100% sure about my thoughts on why we get the shit and hes always in the sunshine but its just getting a bit blatant now and we up north here are a bit tired of it. Tariffs are one thing, start messing with our weather we gonna get serious up here, drop the smoke and beer and send our geese south, heading for every fkin golf course he may be at to shit bomb the fk out of them.

In my case I’ve been fighting with the city and have had their employees in my grow room. (It’s a hall+room.) I don’t need the extra problems. Besides we still haven’t gotten through what’s already jarred.

Some of the heaviest snow we've had, but there's no wind so I still have electricity

Not going to bother clearing these few inches, I'm going to grab a coffee and enjoy watching it melt!

You got flowers on your tress? its only April, must be that Global warming stuff I keep hearing about. We don't see leaves on trees until June. Only 2 more months of cold rainy stuff for us before the bad weather hits.

Yeah, mid March to the first of April all the fruit trees bloom. Tulips, daffodils and hyacinths are also in bloom. After this rain all of the trees are leafing out too. But, that’s all normal here. We will be completely green by next week.
I don’t know if I could handle such long winters. We have four seasons here, makes the winter not so bad.

I know I lived out west spent a lot of time through the winters in warm locals its just seems so far away now like its not even real. Growing up out in Vancouver I thought winter was wet and we have flowers again in March, not here the weather shits on us here but I bitch, there's no way I could ever live out west in the rat race again. I got peace here, I'll deal with....and bitch about it but I aint moving.

Well I have no rat race here, but I get what you are saying. St Louis would be the closest rat race and it’s 4.5 hours North. I have the inconveniences, but hey..there’s always Amazon!

We also get to dodge hurricanes up here in late Aug into Sept. You can feel it in the air just before, it gets a tropical feel to the wind with high humidity and just a light breeze. I kinda like that feeling and storms are exciting but dodging is much better than getting whacked head on like you folks got hit.

I went through a hurricane in Hawaii one year while I was a homeless youth living in a tent on the beach with a bunch of other young Mostly Usa guys and gals from all over the US a couple Brits and others off and on. We took refuge in an open air bathroom they have on some beaches, just cement walls no doors configured with men's on one side women's on the other and it depended on the wind direction on which side we tried to stay on. 8-10 of us with our tents in an overhead drinking beer smoking joints when we could...lol that was some scary fun times being 25 and could give a fk.

A wild child you were! I was much more sedate. I just hung out with the guys in the bottoms riding horses, drinking Whiskey building fires and shooting guns..

 

[steamroller]

We had a coating of snow this morning.
This can officially count as the snow in April I expected.
Everyone move along nothing to see here.

 

[Stoneyluv]

last night might have been our last freeze for the spring.. i think my fruit trees are screwed though. in bloom and we hit 28° this morning.

bring on the warm weather!!!

 

[GoodShit97]

People wonder why i shoot so many deer.

Here's your fucking answer.
Will get better ones tomorrow in the daylignt.
Frames twisted, passenger door won't open, hood won't close, passenger fender is blown out, fender trim is gone, radiator smashed, coolant everywhere, blood everywhere.
So fucking much for moving
Full body collision at 60mph, sent her flying 500+ feet
I'm so ready to just check out and give this life game to some other fucken idiot.
