Texas Fall/Winter thread!

28 degrees here and I reckon when it warms up next week, I'll do the final lawn mowing of the year and use the bagger to get the leaves up, too.

Finally got a little Winter feeling this morning, it's 31* and damp with all the rain we've had, and a lite wind out of the North. Should warm quickly once the sun gets up. Hope the mud has dried enough to get the tractor out today for some odd jobs after I grease it.

Charlie,
Why would you want to grease dried mud?:laughing::confused3::laughing:

Brandi-- It was too muddy to move the Tractor over to the Garage.......to be serviced. Trying not to tear up my Beautifully Manicured Back Yard.LOL

It does look like we are going to have some nice weather for a few days though.

Great sighting yesterday. I was walking away from the back porch yesterday morning when I saw 2 large birds chasing each other. At first I thought the were Red Tail Hawks(we have a lot around here). But they looked larger. They flew around a couple of trees then headed right for me at about 12 feet off the ground, and they were covering ground pretty good. But to my surprise they were 2 beautiful Bald Eagles. They turned right as they flew overhead and were gone.

I had never seen a Bald Eagle in the wild before and they are truly Beautiful and Majestic. I had heard that there were some over on Lake Fork which is about 5 miles away.......as the Eagle Flies. I'm on the lookout now and would love to see some when the Grandkids are out, that would be a kick.

Anyone have recommendations for a good place to find acreage outside of Houston? Looking for about 10 acre horse property.

How far away, and on which side?
