Face masks to make them look better.

Probably makes them walk slower into oncoming traffic or increases their urge to commit suicide in front of a car.

Just saw a Motorguide 45 on FB Tri County jet boat page for $200 used.

Not me, kid got tired of all of the political BS on Nick. He likes Last Man Standing and started looking. Me and Wifey starting wondering if we have to explain where he found all the crooked dick and tit lift stuff to his parents.

In a raised bed, you are "Micro Farming". Pull it out and be done. Don't need no stinking chemicals messing up the mix.

I bought a new MinKota 55 last season and like it. Quieter mount than the MotorGuide 45 it replaced from the factory. No frills and gets the job done.

Watching Sponge Bob with the Grand Kids last weekend, it was all Black Lives Matter and Queer Prided commercials on Nick. We switched over and started watchin Last Man Standing and it was all the Crooked Penis problem and the Boob lifting Bra. The idiot box is really working hard for the low end mentality dollars.

If they could only come up with a vasectomy for the Covid scam, we could all get back to normal

They are ripe, pick them. Depends on the brand, most have white in them. Some are all green.

Pulled honey off today at the other place. Made about 5 gallons off the 3 producing hives. Left a bunch of honey on them to keep them strong. Hive beetles were scarce in the ones I checked here. But that one nuc had got nailed by them.

Yep, it can happen pretty quick. A nuc I made this spring was pretty weak. Checked it today and it was slimed by hive beetles and failed. Took it down to the end of the yard and broke it up to let the bees scatter that were left. Lost 8 hives this spring to the cold snap we had.

June dried up at farm and has been borderline drought, this will be the only harvest there. Hive beetles at house have been managed by mineral salting ground around hives and spraying pymethrin on ground. I have removed inner cover on all hives to get rid of hiding places for them. Going to have to do something different at farm.

Trailer is worth $500

We have a Pyrennes Husky mix at the farm. Nasty dog, stinks like death. He will kill stuff onsite. He can kill deer and other dogs. But, he is gentle around everyone. Don't even have to speak to him, he knows from a look or a sound. I grew up around dogs and have had many, but none in the house. Never have been bit by a dog until dealing with lap dogs.

I have been mineral salting the ground under the hives at house and spraying Pymethrin on the ground once a year. Will see how they do with the Hive beetles. Farm Hives are pretty much self sufficient, a different experiment. I leave them alone and let them do their thing. Dad quit watching them 2 years ago, so no swarm watch. Until I move there full time, they just run themselves. Check them in spring, add supers. Pull whatever honey in July, and button them down in fall. They seem to be pretty tough that way.

I like to be referred to as a Native Missourian. I was born and raised here. Family came from Tennessee and I enjoy spending time there too exploring my heritage. I have no desire to see where they came from before. USA is the place to be.

Does the trailer come with it???

Too much time on your hands. Go fishing and quit wasting your time in the garden.....

I have 7 hives in the yard and my stuff does not get pollinated for some reason. They seem to find bigger and better things to work.

I am pretty sure my butt tastes like s h eet.

I have a seagull decoy that we used when we were bored. Never seem to flare any thing. But, nothing came in to flare. I have a ceramic Kingfisher that I picked up in a yard sale one time in the height of my day. It used to sit in the blind to remind us of the first hunts we had when a kingfisher came buzzing by. Traditions. And memories.

July is here and time to pull the honey. 6 production hives this year, 3 at farm and 3 here. Harvested the farm today, 90+ degrees to keep me warm in the full bee suit. Learning well in my old age, wore all nylon wicking stuff underneath. Seems to cool better. Hit them at high noon on a clear sunny day and did not take a sting. Only a few bumps to the hood. Small Hive Beetles were thick in the hives as I pulled the honey frames. I was able to knock bees off of the frames and most of the beetles and boxed them up in tubs. Rushed to the house and set up extraction. Ended up with about 4 gallons which was pretty good considering how the season started in the spring. Going to fish in the morning then pull frames off the house hives. To be continued.

Not really dogs, but the owners that fail to train them well. I have been bit by dogs doing my essential duties in the last 2 month. First was in May, she knew I was coming. Had 4 large dogs in the house and a full glass front. They were all chomping at the bit to get at me, she opened the door and they pushed her out of the way to get at me. The black mutt lunged at me and I deflected with the forearm and jacket caught the bite. It sit and growled at me while the rest of the stinking bunch rubbed all over me. Judges wife. Friday, friend of the boss. Little white yep dog poodle bowed up at me in the yard as I approached. "Don't worry, it don't bite." It kept it up barking and as soon as I turned away the little bas turd nailed me in the calf. "Bad Doggy, you apologize to him...." I made a whole $26 bucks on that deal. Thank God, I have been promoted to all commercial. Dealing with the publick is about to cause a death murder kill incident.

What does not kill ya makes you stronger

These are challenging times, anything goes.
