You flip-flop wearers need to turn in your man card.

I grew up in a small town and still live there although it's not so small anymore. When I built my current house out in the woods, there was no one around. Dirt road, no street lights, just woods and my house in the woods a few hundred feet off the road in the woods. Unable to see it from the road.

The first time my wife and I went outside at about midnight, we were surprised that it was so dark, we actually couldn't see our feet. It was so great ! Standing there in the clearing, not able to see anything but when we looked up, we could see the 'dust' of the galaxy in the sky.

Today the road is paved, there's a street light at the end of our dirt driveway and there's 1,000+ houses less than a mile away. No more galaxy dust with the light pollution we have now. I'm still surrounded by several hundred acres of woods on all sides, so I guess I'm better off than most.

When I built my house, my cousin in RI built a house in a development. He was so proud of the house, 20 feet off the road/sidewalk. Double wide, 25 ft long driveway. Typical development, but it had a couple rows of dense trees in the back that separated his back yard from his neighbor's. He was telling me that he could take a leak off his back steps and his neighbor couldn't see him. I told him I can take one off my front steps and have many times. :)

Speaking of leaking, a city guy will step out of the shower to take one. I too always carry TP or kleenex in my truck. When a man's gotta go, a man's gotta go.

The male sandal enthusiasts that I know seem to favor frizzy hair and tie-dyed t-shirts. How about you?:) Steve
I resembled that remark... About 40 years ago. Now I ask the barber if they could move the hair coming out of my ears and put back on top or my head.

I just read through all 37 pages of this thread and I'll admit I used to own a pair of sandals. That is until about four years ago when my dog ate them. Never did get around to replacing 'em. We used to live in a village of about 200 full time residents, but moved out of town to my FIL's place in his last years. I've found that the less I see of my neighbors, the less I miss them.
Cheers! Keep those tales coming.

That's kinda funny, as bought a pair of sandals for first time a couple years ago. I wear them when going into town, but with socks because when i get back home. :)

If it's above 40^ F I just walk outside to go. IMO it's much easier than taking a shower just for that ... :D

Might as well water your shrubs. Don't waste all that nitrogen, phosphorous and potassium.
