Sorry kids, grandpa wants a new boat.
That cat food isn't all that bad if you put ketchup on it.

As it happens, this grandpa's SS payments did in fact pay for the boat, a
37-foot sloop. Gone now. Wrecked. My SS supported insurance paid for it.

I have been banking mine too. My plan was to have enough to build a
new boat but I am far beyond that now.
I am raiding it this month to build a bump out in my screen cage with
an Ipe deck but I still have plenty left over.

Now you're talking. That's the way wealth should be redistributed. Buy stuff or pay people to work.

I had a couple of my "union" Mexicans over the other day to wheel 2
yards of concrete for my footers.
The deal was $50 each for about 2 hour's work and I tossed them an
extra $25 each because they did a good job.

Wealth distribution at its finest. I'm soon going to distribute some wealth to get decent grass
growing in my back yard.

John H. -- Hope you're having a great day!

Yeah, winter up there is a great time to grow grass.

It is a hell of a lot better time to grow grass than in the Summer.


Planting grass seed here in the spring is, as I've found, a waste of grass seed. It comes up very
nicely, and then July rolls around. The heat, humidity, and dryness kill it pretty quickly.

John H. -- Hope you're having a great day!



I think around here, the lawn freaks plant in the late summer into fall....


The thing to do is plant when it's cooled down, the fall, but before the leaves fall, in the fall.
Pray for a window of opportunity.

John H. -- Hope you're having a great day!
