Quoted from littlecammi:I'm pretty sure those mushrooms aren't poisonous.
Then you go first!

Quoted from punkin:Found this 8' carpet snake down the back between two empty bee boxes. Picked him up and took him further down the back to the creek.
He was so stunningly beautiful with a much bigger head than my Bredli Pythons. He was just as docile and friendly though.

Oh, HELL NO.
He's a python, he can't hurt anyone. You are too big to eat and they know you won't hurt them if you've gone to the trouble of picking them up carefully.
I have two as companions that live with me. They are affectionate and attentive. They love to interact and can tell people apart and have their favorites. I've been toilet training them (semi successfully) to shit on the neighbours lawn.

They love the hat, and yes, last night the bigger guy was watching me play pins from there.

That's not a selfie! Someone else took that photo of me.

He's purty.
Here's a couple back for you. They both got a new suit last week, one took a bath afterwards.
Had the currawongs eating olives out of the trees outside my front door for the last two weeks (among other birds, bat's and lizards).
Started pressure-washing my back deck. (about 15ft x 50ft)
Boy did it need it,
I was contemplating replacing the whole thing as it was looking pretty bad, but after pressure washing it looks pretty good.
I will still need to replace about a dozen boards as some have rotted or deteriorated
but I think most of the deck will be salvageable with a good treatment or stain.
One had to be careful with the pressure nozzles, too far from the deck,
did not remove the grime and too close would actually eat into the wood.
1 to 2inches separation was the sweet spot.

Just might last another 3-5 yrs, if I start taking better care of it.
Had not really done a thing to it since moving in, on about June of 2014,
and deck was probably there about 10-12 yrs prior to our purchasing home.
A lot of the debris on the deck is bird and squirrel food my wife tosses to feed the critters,
along with moss growing in the space between boards.
I will need to design and build some new kind of feeding station, to try to keep things tidy.
Also want to build some sort of outdoor area (cage/housing) so our indoor only cats can get some fresh air.
Below is what deck looked like in 2014, for comparision.
We painted the house white (from khaki) a few yrs ago.

Yea, like night and day. Should take the stain well.
Lots of foliage in your backyard. Looks nice..
I spent Saturday at the Vicksburg National Military Park. There was so much to see and learn about. Here are just a few examples of monuments from north and south.

I'd love to try them.
Quoted from dnapac:I have a recipe for a whiskey-cream sauce that makes them incredible over steak. Damn! Now I need some morels.
I love the King Oysters (Pleurotus eryngii) on steak the best, so good. Wish i still grew them, my favourites.
Quoted from EJS:Big shout out to a local pinhead (not on pinside) who does lighting for a living. He took care of my crab apple tree. I’m really excited for it to bloom for a good glow in a few weeks.[quoted image][quoted image]
Is it Christmas there already?
Quoted from yzfguy:Is it Christmas there already?
No but it did snow the day these went up. Going to run these lights all year into the evening. Will shut off after sunset. Will leave on throughout the night on summer holidays.
They’ll stay on the tree forever and it’s cheaper to install them now than Christmas time when everyone else wants them hung.
Quoted from yzfguy:Is it Christmas there already?
It's been Christmas here for nearly two weeks.
A few views from a four day canoe trip on the Buffalo River last week. Awesome river for multi day floats if that is your thing!

This is April 21, 2021, and I've already mowed the lawn. . . twice.

Indiana (and goes the same for Ohio)...April: Shovel the driveway in the morning, mow the lawn in the afternoon.
Quoted from TractorDoc:Heading down the drive this morning.
Well we got off easy - light dusting nothing really stuck and temps climbing already. That looks like it is going to do some damage to spring growth...
Quoted from punkin:Some of the best days in my life have been spent in a canoe.
With a guy from Peru?

My wife and i spent an enjoyable couple of weekends together building this canoe which i then spent years pushing down some rivers that looked very much like the one in your photos.

Quoted from mtn-:What the hell you wanna go fuck around with that river for?
If you don't know already you wouldn't believe. Same reason it's so brilliant to crossing an ocean bar and going to sea in small boats. You get to see and touch things others only see through a screen with David Attenborough explaining it to them. I'll never forget the sight of my homebody wife leaning over the tunnel of my little catamaran touching dolphins as the cavorted under the boat at speed and leaped up 3' in front of us.
Seen manta rays, sea snakes, huge sunfish, caught marlin and sharks etc. There's not a better day spent than a good day on the water.
Quoted from mtn-:What the hell you wanna go fuck around with that river for?
He's just quoting Deliverance.
Quoted from jaytrem:He's just quoting Deliverance.
Ahhh ah movie, i recall. I've never seen it.
Quoted from punkin:Ahhh ah movie, i recall. I've never seen it.
Great movie, you should check it out.
Oh, and don't fuck with the river, else it might fuck with you...

It’s so relaxing even the rapids...no cell reception and no distractions!
