Pee around the perimeter of the garden. Or if your neighbors might object to that, visit the local barber and circle it with hair.

Good, still best to call the insurance first. They'll send you their approved plumbers for an estimate. You can get your own estimates as well and decide if you want to file a claim or not.

We've started getting zucchini, yellow squash, and cucumbers. Everything else is doing well.

Best to call the insurance first then. They could refuse the claim saying whoever you called messed it up.

I'd love to know the story behind this picture.

Mom told a funny story last night I'd never heard before.... Her dad brought home a boiled ham, which was a rare treat for them. Mom said the same thing about how good it was and how anxious they were for ham sandwiches. Mom and her sisters always had friends around and the news of boiled ham ensured they were there. Apparently someone left a door open and not only did their friends come over, their friends' dogs did too. You can guess what happened. Mom said they'd gone to get drinks or something, turned around and the ham was gone. The first thing I thought of was.....

Welcome!

Interesting to have both a camera and a gun.

Far more guns are damaged or worn out by excessive cleaning than excessive shooting.

One day ole Jed was shootin at some food....

You might be shocked at the value of some stuff rolling down the highway. We routinely put tens of millions of $$ on a flat bed.

Wow, that's a lot of bees!

Hope you heal up quickly.

You want to heat the surrounding area but not the pin. Heat the hole so it gets bigger and loosens up on the pin. If its cerakote, you should be able to get it really hot, upwards of 1000 deg F. More than enough to get the pin out. Put a little penetrating oil on it, let that soak for 30 mins, then heat it up until the oil starts smoking, then try to knock the pin out while it's hot. It may take a couple attempts. Since you've determined this isn't the correct pin, is it possible its tapered and will only come out 1 way?

What's it finished with?

Depending on what it's coated with, heating the surrounding area will help loosen it up.

I work in aviation so I understand the desire to use proven technology. But building more of the same obsolete thing because that's all you know how to do isn't the best course of action.

I agree, but it needs to be the right kind of nuclear. PWR's are 70 year old technology, there's way better ideas now. The NRC needs to look forward, not backwards. As for all the new neighbors..... welcome to summer in the south! We haven't had a real scorcher in a few years, we're due. It's not even July yet much less August, get ready.

Really bad flavored vodka.

Good. I was afraid it was another watered down flavored tourist vodka distillery.

We need to stop calling it gun violence. That gives an object to blame. It's not gun violence, it's just violence. If not guns it would be bombs, knives, acid, ....

Spend your $1000 renting a tiller for the next 10 years. No storage, no maintenance on something you'll use twice a year. Our garden is doing pretty well. Of all the seedlings we started and then planted, only 3 died. I consider that great yield. Both the spaghetti squash seedlings i planted died, but I had 2 more seedlings to replace them with. They're ok so far. One of 4 or 5 cucumber seedling died. Everything else looks good. I also transplanted 4 tomatoes, a cayenne (?) pepper, an okra, and a green bean plant that all came up in my fire pit.

I passed by that new distillery taking my younger boy to ride Go-Karts last week. What do they make?

Welcome!

I'll add that it's baby season so hummingbirds will feed much more heavily on bugs to provide protein for their babies. One the babies fledge, they'll be back on nectar and feeders.
