I can't help but laugh when I see a squirrel laying around.
They are such active pest it is un expected to see them just lounging, but I guess they deserve it as much as any?
This was from 2022. We seemed to have a weird shortage of squirrels last year. Not sure if it is something that happens on certain years or not.
Hope they come back I enjoyed their company.

Almost got this one to eat right from my hand. Took a couple months to get this close. I used the Hanzel and Gretel technique minus the oven~!
 
I used to work for the Dept. of Natural Resources in SC, back during a past lifetime. My vehicle had a very similar emblem to the ones the game wardens had on their vehicles. I had nothing to do with enforcing fish and game rules and regulations, though.

I was working on a project to get a river into the state scenic rivers program, so I had to visit all the access points along a 70 mile stretch of river. I also boated and kayaked the whole length, and everything had the DNR emblem on them.

Sometimes people would grab their fishing gear and jump in the river and cross to the other side when they saw me pull up. Another time I pulled up in the kayak to a boat ramp where my vehicle was parked and the people fishing started yammering idiotic good-day-officer-sure-is-a-nice-day-today-(OMG, don't ask me for my fishing license)-mighty-fine-weather-yessir type things. In that case, two guys picked up my boat and carried it to my vehicle and put it on the rooftop carrier for me, yammering the bullshit all the while.

I did tell them I wasn't law enforcement, but I guess they didn't hear me when I whispered it under my breath.

The old farmer down the road I hang out with told me the squirrels used to emigrate north to south years ago when we had more trees. I thought he was bull shiting me had to look it up. He wasn't joking. Some groups were thought to have over 400 million strong in them. They would swim the Mississippi River and Ohio like nothing.
 
Well apparently the weather didn't want me to do this today.
Nothing but sleet, snow, rain, and hurricane force winds today, but I gotter done! View attachment 54356View attachment 54357
I was gonna bust your balls if you didn't get it done~!;)
Now what I am going to do on a Saturday night?
Looks good man~!
I hate doing rails especially on stairs.
Way go getting it done.
Weather really did blow today to boot.👊

That railing drops 12 inches over a 24 inche span 😳
But fk it, I did the best I could with the weather.
The railing for the stairs was the last thing I did, and I was froze. My fingers didn't wanna work, my feet were soaked, I was dripping wet, so I said fk it and sent it the way it sat. Ended up having to cut every baluster on the stairs because of it, but it looks pretty good for being built by a woodchuck 🤣
 
Mornin Yiz Menz!
It’s a gorgeous day in the Zarks!
A glass of iced tea, south porch, my new papasan chair, a clean smelling breeze, a nice joint rolled up and sunshine! All the things I love!
Life is good good in the woods hood!
 
All this nice weather ain't had much time to check in and say what's up mothasuckas

So ...what's up mothasuckas 😜
So hot here you can hear a fat lady sweat on a porch 2 klicks away. Smile anyway water throwing season -- anything and everybody gets doused with water -- and tons of drinking. Saw Ferrari last night, really into the way they portrayed the driving. Michael Mann (Miami Vice) is a gifted director -- Driver seemed Italian enough. Wife on vacation and dragged herself to the pool. 'These' are the Good 'Ol Daze.
 
Trim jail this morning, my hands ache! I need to adopt someone to do my dry trim for me.
Alls good though, three aromas to enjoy this morning.
Super blue dream, smells like blue dream, only bluer!
Crystal berry
And Sativa bag seed!

I’m psyched! Looking forward to cracking the jars each time and smelling them ferment!
 
Morning all.

We actually have partial sun today with the promise of full sun tomorrow. 😳 Unfortunately rain again after but it is spring.

At least I know the roof doesn’t leak. 🤣

Hope everyone has been doing well. I’ll try to pop by journals as I get time. Its our spring cleaning time and yard work needs doing too. Got to keep the boss happy.
 
Last night was the first warm breeze that I have felt at night since last fall. The whippoorwills were singing their lil butts off too!
I just sat in the peace quiet and dark til late last night. Enjoyed every second of it.

So, the results:
Three plants started in mid november and suffered through a rough December. Jan, Feb and march were a bit more forgiving.

Crystal Berry: approx. 1 1/2 oz. Smells like cat piss/burning rubber of the highest degree, but I’m not sure why. Also very stony indica, so I guess the cat piss is good!

Super Blue Dream: 4 to 6 oz, probably closer to 6 than 4, but I’m just eyeballing. It fills a 1/2 gal and 1 qt jar to about 3/4 full. Smells sweet and berry like to me, but my daughter still smells wet grass (she’s got the more sensitive nose).

Bagseed Sativa: about 3 to 4 oz. Good slightly chemical smell Mixed with a bit of citrus.

The long wait begins.
 
Sooo, I finally bit the bullet and went through my seed stash to chose @stonemason ’s seeds. It’s harrowing and I had to smoke a big one! Trying to decide is the beast!
With that said, Stoney is getting some banging Dragons Flame Genetics! Garlic Stash 13! A cross between Garlic Breath 13 and Dragons Stash F2Red along with a snazzy DFG sticker. 🙂
@stonemason please DM me your addy. I’m thinking you or someone already has, but I cannot find it!IMG_1966.jpeg
 
Just a little rant on dehus and hueys.

Why must every maker of said products build them in such a way cleaning is a problem and nearly impossible? Just overall there is always some shit design going on with them that makes cleaning them 100% impossible ..there's always some spot that's unreachable. Why? Why? Why?

Do they want people getting sick I guess that's gotta be it....otherwise it's just dumber than shit.

@Moe.Red how easy is that one you built to clean? Looks next level when it comes to the cleaning from what I remember.....pretty square and easy.

Levoit Huey, good but shithole to clean
Vellgoo dehu, so so dehu so so cleaning could be better
Midea dehu - good dehu but absolute nightmare to clean the bucket so many pockets and channels of nothing maybe just designed that way to strengthen the plastic idk...don't care in my mind it's junk design.

Easy peasy.

I'll print you the parts if you want to make one. Just need a little aquarium and an ultrasonic fogger, then a float valve if you want it to be maint free. But you could even do it simpler and use a bucket if you want.

I have 3 of these, top load and easy to clean, no settings on it, I use a timer 15 on 10 off and it keeps me between 55-60% ....I can get my hand in and wipe them down with a bit of vinegar. The filter comes out and is easily cleaned and so is the base. $ about $50 Cdn Amzone

That tube inside the tank is exactly where mine has issue...there is a piece in there that disperses the vapor...basically just a flat disc on a couple legs that force the vapor around it...can't get down in there in the very crack around the legs of that stand if that makes sense...I just pour vinegar down through it as I clean and hope it kills the little corner of pink mold that forever stays in there...

I'm gonna have to get with ya @Moe.Red and whip one up sometime in the future fasho. That one you got is too slick

I use a shop towel and a screwdriver soaked in vinegar to push through that vent. The blue shop towels are stronger than paper towel and doesn't tear up as easily, I can push it through to the bottom and haul it out. I must have 10 -12 old humidifiers that all suck because they can't be cleaned so I went with zero ppm RO water but it got expensive making trips to get it. After I bought 1 of these and saw how easily it cleans I bought 2 more and I just use my well water.

Yea I do use distilled but it sometimes has a lil extra in it...I think the light in the tent may encourage bacterial growth as well...but I mean it doesn't need cleaned badly when I do it....I just do it for peace of mind. I would much rather just add a little peroxide to the water but I haven't really tested that...I'm afraid it could stress the plants probably an irrational fear but still a fear
