Through August. Then, it would rain again in September, yard turned green. And the fucking dandelions come back - until next year. Yard maintenance, to try to look decent... That just sucked... I've spent a lifetime on a mower. I have spent $ on eliminating dandelions! And repeat.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Between dandelions, encroaching forest, and a canine backhoe called a Great Pyrenees, lawn has become just another four letter word. Now with barely any rain for six weeks, I won’t mow until we get more rain. Just would stress the grass more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Armed Eye Doc Posted June 22, 2023 Report Share Posted June 22, 2023 We had a thunderstorm yesterday afternoon with some 50-60mph winds. It took out lots of trees and power lines. The office was closed for the day. Our power went out yesterday at 6:30 and is supposed to be restored about 9:00 tonight. It's a good thing we have a generator to run the refrigerator and freezer. I would hate to lose all of this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

unforgiven Posted June 27, 2023 Report Share Posted June 27, 2023 We have been lucky with the smoke from Canadian fires, seems like the wind finally shifted and we are hazy air. Smells a little plastic. Good day to be inside. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cunuckgaucho Posted June 28, 2023 Report Share Posted June 28, 2023 Smoke has been pretty minimal but it's been a cool June, temps are slated to rise this weekend Pictures are from a small brush fire 15min from my place. It closed the Highway to Whistler, human cause not climate change. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DNP Posted June 28, 2023 Report Share Posted June 28, 2023 Pretty bold statement. Climate change might have triggered the human to act a certain way. And with .00017% more moisture in the vegetation, it may not have lit. I’m sure if we think hard enough, we can come up with 10 ways that fire was caused by climate change, systemic racism, toxic masculinity, and probably the USA’s weak stance on gun control.
