Have you guys tried any of those expandable garden hoses?
I bought one from the Walgreens infomercial aisle once and it didn't last.

I have not. I've often wondered about them.

Gr*ss here is breaking the records this year. Bet I've mowed more inches already than the last two years. High mugginess and lotsa rain, two days after I last mowed it, looked like it had been 2 or 3 weeks normal growth.

Hello Larry, Greg, Jose and Moldy.

My grass is half green and half brown. Don't bother me any. Less to cut. It goes dormant around here. Unfortunately it comes back.

Sitting here on the deck enjoying frozen peach margaritas. I put in some cherries in the last batch and a couple tablespoons of sugar. Man, amazing. Sucks I only have one batch of fruit left....

Not sure that it will pair wil steaks and baked potatoes. I love baked potatoes on the grill! Maybe keep the last batch for desert and have wine instead....

For the grass down there, what type is usually planted? My inlaws in NC have what looks like a glorified vine per see.

Is it a vine type or a traditional grass?
