Only time I ever got up and walked out of the theater during a movie was this one. Avoided it ever since.

My man !

I called those Katrina Calls, or no calls.
Yes. If you don’t have the flashing, strips of roofing felt will do.

Not a fan of the “stair-stepping”. Especially at only 16” offset.
Probably about any flooring store will have someone you can call.

Good catch !
Give Raymond a call. You won’t be disappointed. Quality man, quality work. Does a lot of specialty work in high-end houses for contractors, designers ,and homeowners.
This question is asked quite often here. I always recommend Southern Showers. The people who call them are always glad they did.
Possibly the finest tile setter and custom shower builder around.

re: Can coyotes climb a fence?

Yes they can. I have a couple of videos of coyotes up in trees, maybe 15-20 off the ground in an attempt to escape the hounds.

I’ve done many of these. Cracker and turnblad are giving you good info. Don’t know why someone would downvote their posts.

The framing and installation is not all that complicated, but it can sometimes take a bit to get it all perfect.
You will also need to anchor it securely to the framing as well as the floor.

I was hesitant before I did my first one, but if you’re semi-handy you can get it done.
Yep. When I was offered one it basically said you guarantee to pay them every year for them to come out and inspect and treat if they think it’s necessary. Didn’t read far enough to see if they charged extra if they put out chemicals, but I’m sure you do.
Hard to come up with a more one-sided contract.

They gotta get the hierarchy sorted out. They’re gonna fight. As long as it’s one-on-one and fairly evenly matched it’s usually not too bad. They will gang up on one if more are there. Then it can be a problem. Sometimes horrific injuries resulting in ground meat.

For five cows, do as scanni suggested and buy bred cows. That’ll get you through the first go-round and it’ll give you time to decide about a bull.

This is probably your best option. It’s all about bred cows. You should be able to get most if not all the purchase price back when you sell. You don’t want to be missing any calves and he will (or should) be on the alert for a cow that needs more attention.

What is the condition of the roof ?
Does it need to be replaced ?
Can you just install the drip edge and make necessary repairs ?
I wouldn’t buy a new roof just because someone neglected to install a drip edge.

Good chickens. Take the heat of S La pretty well. Small to medium eggs.

Please do not refer to it as a fishing pole in the presence of other fishermen. Use the term fishing rod. The only fishing pole is a cane pole.

I also prefer to sand it, but care should be taken. A pad sander may be a safer option.

I don't catalog horsies


Except for that one horse on Gunsmoke, they don’t really stand out. On Bonanza, though, Little Joe had nine different horse , all named Cochise that he used throughout the series. The original Cochise which he rode the longest was brutally murdered in his stall.
I admit I did have a catalog on these horses, seeing which one he rode in each episode. There are even some episodes where he switched horses a couple times from one scene to another.
When Matt Dillon sets out on a horse that is not his buckskin, you can bet that hose ain’t gonna make it through the episode alive.
