Re: Last Post Wins
I got 2/3rds of my yard mowed this afternoon before the rain chased my mower back into the shed. I will have to rake and bale the other 1/3rd later this week.

Re: Last Post Wins
My rice is doing nicely. I ran the AC runoff into the paddy just for when we get more than 24 hours without rain, which is rare.
People keep asking if I'm back and I haven't really had an answer. But now, yeah, I'm thinkin' I'm back.

Re: Last Post Wins
Once it gets 3-4 inches tall you need to turn off the water and let it grow. Water if drought conditions plague the area. Otherwise let mother nature take care of the crop with regular rainfall.
This won't work with Asian lowland rice, but upland rice grown in the USA works this way.seeya

Re: Last Post Wins
Rained enough at our house in BG today to keep my mower in the shed. Few more days of this and I will have to invest in a small round baler.

Mowed during a brief shower.
Was desparate, either that or bush hog and I was very fearful the tractor would sink to the axles.One of the hardest things in life is having words in your heart that you can't utter.

Unbelievably quiet in my yard without the incessant noise of the grass growing.
Will be wishing for rain by week’s end.

Got through mowing my lawn again and what a joy; didn't need the fins and a snorkel...

Something I noticed today was our top three threads fr most of the day were
1) Home defense shotgun question
2) Gun question
3) Truck batteries
...not judging, just say’n, merely an observation.

Re: Last Post Wins
I fell down an internet rabbit hole this weekend and discovered a cool fact about Lexington: For those that like typing and/or touch-type there are very few keyboards better than the old IBM Model M "buckling spring" computer keyboards. What I didn't realize is that these keyboards were manufactured in Lexington, KY; first by IBM and then in the spun-off Lexmark. When IBM decided to switch to cheaper countries of manufacture, Lexmark discontinued production. A couple of Lexmark engineers purchased the entire keyboard production line (equipment, dies, etc.) and spun it off as its own company: Unicomp. To this day, Unicomp still manufactures these keyboards by hand in Lexington, KY using the same equipment and techniques as the original Model M's. They aren't exactly cheap (~$100) but aren't expensive by boutique keyboard standards and will pretty much last forever.

Re: Last Post Wins
I knew we made the old ones here. Didn't know about unicomp. I may check them out. It is one of the best keyboards ever made.
Googled and they're over on Henry Clay Blvd on the industrial/commercial end.
I've gotten so used to laptop chicklets I don't know if I could go back, but I sure cut my teeth on them and long term they are a fabulous keyboard b/c of the tactile and auditory feedback.People keep asking if I'm back and I haven't really had an answer. But now, yeah, I'm thinkin' I'm back.
