Coffee Break # 42 Can we add some ice to that coffee??

I told him people are wishing him well.

good.. miss him a lot

What did you say to send him away?!!!! ^_^

Here's a video with Al. He is into 'urban exploration', where photographers go into abandoned, broken down places. Some guy did one in WI and interviewed Al and another guy. This is from about a year ago. I'm assuming he won't mind, but since he's never here, how will he know?!! Hee hee. Enjoy.

small world, I know the kid they interviewed in this article.

Wow - read about that yesterday, Jen.

Also heard from Dave - he says hello to all. He chose not to renew his subscription and wanted to say goodbye, but did not get the chance before he was cut off.

Also heard from Elvis...

I had to send a message to my friend to find out if that was her son....and it was!!!! isn't that bizarre???


I'm surprised in that urban explorers video that places like that are left standing, I guess everywhere is different, but in our township the owner would be fined if property is not maintained

Was wondering what happened to Dave. Did you let him know about the RU at Bill's?

and how is Elvis doing?

Elvis is fine. Not happy with the impersonators. Especially the hip action.I'll let Dave know about the RU.

LOL


When we went to Vegas about 10yrs ago hubby and I had a bet about how many Elvises we'd see. I said we'd see a lot hubby said 1, We saw none.

Dave47 is on facebook.

Yes, Dave is on FB.

Doh!!!

That was a no brainer

I would have been sick....not so much for the cost but because it was a family heirloom. Someone is going to find it one day in the fish they are having for dinner

Dont know what they are speaking but had to laugh.

Just catching up.....some weird things in this world....talking about the pea.....how could a cooked anything sprout?

We now have the emerald ash borer in this part of the state. Bad news.

He'll have to bring his own water...

Tree guy came. Was better than I expected. Will remove the silver maple and do some major trimming for $600.

That's a great price. Is he insured?

maybe he expects a tip

Business is slow. People just have to let their trees sit. On Aug. 23 they will start to work on resealing our basement--install a pump as well. We don't need over a foot of water there again.

I'm sure that's the reason, though he has always been reasonable in the past. I'll send him to Bill for the tip.

Yes, he is licensed, insured, yada.

Great price!

Hes going to take the tree down - Does that mean remove the stump also? If not your looking at another chunk of change. Jim will remove stumps and that is when you charge just to move in!

I don't need the stump ground. Just cut real low. It's in a bed, so will not be planted with grass. It will rot fast enough.

We did that to a blue spruce.....several years later, when the tree guys came back to take down something else, we had it ground, & the chips piled on top to promote rotting.....when I tried to plant my new JM there this year....roots!

Stumps and roots do not rot or go away fast. Some will not rot in 20 years. Its against the law to even bury a stump up here. You build a house on a stump dump and your foundation will eventyally give in - in time.

I had the stumps of 2 60' oaks ground down to 28" below soil level, that did the trick, now I have a new flower garden & a tulip bed on them. I do get a lot of weird mushrooms on one of them in the spring and the ground is mushy there. The other one which has the flower garden is solid, just a lot of wood chips underground which are decomposing.

Put Brush B Gone on the stump and it will not take long. Done is a few times already.

I drill holes in the stump and put in salt peter and water well. Then when that doesn't work, I make a huge pile of dirt over it and make it into a garden! That works and you get interesting mushrooms along the way!
