➡I accidentally bought Balut eggs: 2 live ducks! Now a Chat Thread!

Winds and hail did a number on our fruit trees. For example here is a plum in the front yard...


But there is still a lot of fruit on that dwarf plum tree.

Mother Nature thinned my trees for me since I couldn't get to them this year with all the rain we have had.

Today the boys used the Kubota tractor and dug out all the Elderberry bushes in my garden. With all the rain we have had For two years, they had exploded and completely taken over the 16 X 20 foot bed sending roots and sprouts everywhere.
They rolled back the timbers that surrounded that bed and dug out down 16 inches to the red clay level.
Hubby want to take the root stock to plant some low areas he found while checking pastures....if the cows will leave them alone I can pick those areas if I want berries.
We have 5 days of 20 to 50% rain chances. Then I'll have to rebuild that area and backfill it with good top soil we have stockpiled and compost before I can plant for the fall garden....good thing I have time for that.

Now these will become my favorite stretches for my back...

No, not pictures of me...just the stretch positions.

Dressed like a total dork this morning but hoping it will help with the ticks

I actually did the socks over pants thing yesterday but still got one on my back so trying the shirt tucked in thing today too.

What would really help is some bug spray/deet but I keep forgetting to grab some.

But I have literally gotten 3-4 ticks this weekend so far.

My cousin was talking about having her horse skinned when it dies. She wanted a taxidermy friend of mine to do it.

Roy did that too.

I believe I am older than @Wickedchicken6. Does that make me the wisest of them all?

Was BYC super slow and wouldn’t load anything this morning for anyone else!? Maybe around 930ish eastern time?? Cause mine was and I thought it was my WiFi at first but it wouldn’t load even on data, couldn’t open any of the threads or anything, when I clicked just spinny and then now it works fine so it was probably maybe for like an hour or half hour this morning idk cause I gave up ha other sites worked fine. It was weird. Never happened before.

I did eventually try that and it was still really slow so I just gave up haha

Although my phone was a little slow earlier too so I shut it off.
