  1. We are on a corner lot. With a fire hydrant. Seems the corner of my lawn is the Buc-ee’s piss stop for the entire neighborhood. Other than cost, dog urine is the only draw back regarding zoysia.
  2. Taking a break from the mothership grounds mowing chores. Started out with tolerable temps. The mercury is picking up the pace on its upward flight. Kubo likes its fluid / filter change and new drive belt for mower deck. She’s ugly and clunky compared to the new zero turn units but she’s reliable, sips diesel and was free.
  3. What The Buck has a spreadsheet noting all the places. Ask him.
  4. Wordle 812 3/6 ⬛⬛⬛⬛🟨 🟨🟨⬛🟨⬛ 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩
  5. Been there a bunch. In laws live around the way from that joint. It’s, well, meh.
  6. Hand loading is what young wannabe recent college grads are for when they want to big dog it, shot dove, drink beer, talk loud and attract a crowd. BTW, the 2 boxes at the front of the trailer are swamp coolers for the front and back porches. Game changers.
  7. Looking at emerald or zorro. Mostly unshaded. Shade on west side only which is a narrow side street swath. Zoysia needs a lot of sun from what I’ve read.
  8. Maiden voyage for the new PJ 30 footer. Picking up 13K lbs of corn for the feeders. Look for the mushroom cloud.
  9. Zoysia is a great solution. Just laying on zoysia is a waste of money. Zoysia entry level expense is high because a good amount of prep needs to be done in order for it to take and thrive. There is a long trail of tears populated by those that “got a great deal” on zoysia because the proper prep was not done.
  10. My SA lawn in Houston is toast. The drought has weakened it to the point that the chinch bugs have really done a number on it and now the sod web worms are moving in. It is truly remarkable how awful it has become. SA is the bobwhite quail of lawns. Very popular, expensive to maintain, requires too much water, fragile, refuses to choke out any other invasive grass and all the predators want to eat it. SA grass is a big pussy I’m going to get rid of mine after a few other projects are completed and the books are balanced. Going with zoysia Pic of weakened and chinch bug destroyed SA.

  14. "Fair market value." Do you think there will be an argument over that? Todd has the amount they paid plus the projected income from home sales. They will have a very good data set for their valuation. This may be a very expensive park for the State of Texas. Of course, the folks in our esteemed state government that fumbled this entire thing will point fingers at everyone else and attempt to avoid any scrutiny and backlash.

  16. The rut has already started in south Texas.
