the beach house

[jaguarlax]

You and me both! Too close to the Bronx and the New York Yankees too!

I'm sitting here with these big beautiful tomato plants I started from seed and reading the 10 day forecast it's going to be in the 30s near every night so.. :/

Most people with real life's don't notice because they're not at the beach every day or four or five days a week at least during the decent weather

But we haven't had a legitimate spring since 2014 (it can be easily verified)

You said it best the other day, there's no difference between last winter and this spring ❄ it's probably so cold because of global warming

Your here on the east side too? I always assumed you were a left coaster.

Not me, New England born and bred



If you're in the Northeast you might be able to relate to this one..?

Not in a strange place, in a sucky place. Got to have the purple mountains of the great white North, that's God's country!

Cool song but that can't be Merrimack county, looks a lot like parts of Maritimes and with the speed limit sign in the video being 70 km that would be in Canada not USA. Unless of course our politicians have been able to convince the business people & municipal officials in the county that the metric system is a better way to bamboozle folks into paying more for less without realizing they're being fleeced.....at first.

Gorgeous. I always find myself fawning over the PNW... But I always forget what we have right in our backyard. Being so close to this AND the shore? I forget how priceless that is.

Sure is! Think I'm going up again this year, last time I went up I was on this..

So all the holes are dug for the tomatoes I just have to put in the new dirt I've got it in black plastic bags been cooking for months

When I read mr. Jaguars post about New England I was thinking how New England I truly am, was just out there digging holes for tomatoes in a t-shirt at 47 degrees LOL (typical)

..so this told me to wait; going to be mid-forties at least 3 mornings next week it'll be at least another week to put the tomatoes out

Another spring & temperatures are at least a month behind where they normally are, last year's tomato were at least a month late too

Even putting them in on the 15th is reasonable, but the weather, if they're right isn't going to allow that either

Although they are a pretty site for sure, those that live near the Rockies find it quaint easterners call these little things mountains. We have one here in Nova Scotia they call a South mountain 853 ft high, you have to laugh when you drive over it not noticing you're on what they call a mountain.

Oh believe me I've heard that before LOL I had an ex that used to say this all the time, I had to hear about Pikes Peak anytime I wanted to go to the mountains

Piece of cake compared to Pikes Peak she said; And then when we did drive up Mount Washington she nearly wet herself!
She had to pull over and I drove the rest of the way, and then back down

Edit: highest wind ever recorded on earth right there at that sign, until the mid-90s when the Aussies stole the record

Ps. 853' is a hill

I've wanted to go to Nova Scotia for a few years now, I follow Curse of Oak Island and I'd love to go on a tour there

I live 1.5 miles from Oak Island. If you set a time line I could look into it for you. I met Mr. Blankenship at a funeral a month ago. I didn't recognize him. I asked him if he lived locally he said Oak Islands and my ticker went off, ah yes I know him from TV. I think he was surprised at my question, being a star and all. He asked if I'd seen the program I replied not for a few years I kind of gave up on it. He chuckled and said blame the History Channel we'd like to speed things along.

Jealous! I don't think they're going to find anything, but I would like to visit it! the problem is no passport, and the girlfriend has absolutely no desire to go there either :/ it's kind of a bucket list thing for me I suppose? What's your theory about it??

I think there may have been a treasure at one time but a guy named Ball may have found it and used It quietly. He was a black guy at a time when most black folk were not land owners here and he was able to buy a property on the island. He had some money from somewhere and he hasn't been looked into deeply enough as to where he was able to get enough to buy land.

There's some funny evidence of treasure like coconut fibers found so deep and the flood tunnels. Something was there for some reason but its a lot of time and effort spent to find out. It keeps the area economy going with a hotel , marina and bungalows, tour buses and such.

Yes I follow it closely LOL It's cool you met one of The Originals! I know about ball he was an ex-slave turned cabbage farmer (or turnips?) he ended up being rich nobody knew where we made the money but they didn't think it was from cabbage LOL

But why would they build the swamp into the whole Illuminati pyramid shape, then there's Nolan's cross what the hell is that all about? and then there's the separate money pit with the amazing booby traps and then there's supposedly where they found the treasure chest supposedly ball may have found one of the smaller Treasures but who the hell knows?? I think it's the most fascinating thing on TV

5 hrs of trimming. I save lots of the leftover trim and small nuggets for butter making. Here it is. Huge crop for an auto flower. 385 grams cut minus the stems/stalks. My estimate about 360 grams. Hopefully around 270-300 once dried to my liken. Around 55 percent moisture once I get it to Where I want it, as my 55 moisture packs in my jars for storage.
