It has not rained for two days and still half of my yard is under water and the skeeters are swarming all over the place. and the tree frogs are so loud you can her them inside my home. and the worst thing is I can't get my bike through the mud driveway. So for now I take my car to work.

Left side of yard looking toward the road


Rt. rear of back corner of lot


middle of back lot


left rear lot


where my bike got stuck trying to park under the leanto


this is what it looks like where my bike leaves the leanto

I'm afraid the front tire will slide because the grass is gone and no traction

If you notice when grass is dry there is no problems driving out of the leanto. it;s the sharp left that I worried about.

why don't you add another lean to your lean to so you don't have to make a sharp left?

Put some of those fans to work on those critical wet areas - moving air will surely dry them... Laughing

Nice swamp land you got there, you need to get those fans to work!

We've not had enough rain here, but a few good storms lately are catching us up quickly.

"Shore Skimmers"

They're called skimboards.


And this is what we do with them. ('cause we don't have any real waves!)



(not me, I wish...)

well.. you're right the original seat is not really a good seat and might as well be invisible

Endo, I see you dabble in the shotgun arts. Skeet or trap?
