Good morning!!!!

I hiked up Apple Orchard Mountain again, then down to the A.O. Falls and up Cornelius Creek...so many waterfalls, cascades, and slides. Oak trees had not leafed out at the at the higher elevation, but the rhododendrons were blooming lower down and lots of wildflowers along the way.

This is a thru hiker I hiked with for a couple miles...gives some perspective to the falls, but the trees block the view of some of it.

Pool salt is mostly pure salt.
Softener salt has lots of minerals.

Ok - Thank you!

Good Morning All

still going through the motions, slow going process

might mow the lawn today with the zero turn


I just came across this interesting find on MarketPlace. Never heard of it... guessing the 12 / 39 is the hp / mower deck. Has a 12 hp briggs & straton. Anyone know anything about this ... a Toro brand perhaps ??? I'm just curious because I've never seen one. I like the odd-ducks

Unlikely to see one here in Oz but 12 HP doesn't sound a lot even for a 39" cut. Probably possible to fit a bigger donkey in it if needed.

Pool Salt vs Water Softener Salt: What Makes Them Different? - Miss Vickie

There are hardly any differences between pool salt vs water softener salt when you use pure salts. Still, here is what you should know!

Billy- Thanks for the +'s and thank you for your awesome pictures. Pending bird pics at some point- hummingbird, catbird, hair backed pterodactyl.

Kilroy- I really like your heavy duty ATV setup.

Today's high temperature was 75ºF and it was a pretty drive for the microwave purchase. We bought a replacement microwave that will pretty much fill the existing cabinet cavity. I find it difficult to spend a lot of $ to redo/upgrade our existing Corian® countertop, built-in oven and countertop stove, and kitchen cabinetry for our short term enjoyment so some new owner in the future will tear it all down and redo it all over again..

The most important thing about that setup is that we get back our bed storage
