That's about... one or two days of growth?Yesterday I removed three trashbags full of kudzu from appx. 1/8 of my yard.

I sure hope not, or else the "nobody's lived here for 3 years" thing is a lie in a very strange direction!That's about... one or two days of growth?
You can rent goats for that. Sheep love the stuff too, but goats are more voracious (or so I hear).Yesterday I removed three trashbags full of kudzu from appx. 1/8 of my yard. Probably helped out a fairly old tree, definitely overdid it as far as my back is concerned...
Are there... arboreal goats? we're talking some maples I can't reach my arms around. I located a few "satellite" taproots, but frankly, this year is going to be a "eff your verdant tentacles, I'll deal with your nexii later" year...You can rent goats for that. Sheep love the stuff too, but goats are more voracious (or so I hear).
We have a Sphynx and a Devon Rex. The cats might have a fur problem, but we don't . Low/no fur, low allergy.Oh, I know that level of dust. We had three cats at one point, and both of us have hair past our shoulders.
Well, no, but they'll eat everything they can reach, clearing most of the yard. And probably kill the vines around the trees, but you'd still have to clear the remnants.Are there... arboreal goats?
Ow! Sorry you have the back trouble.Yesterday I removed three trashbags full of kudzu from appx. 1/8 of my yard. Probably helped out a fairly old tree, definitely overdid it as far as my back is concerned...
Kudzu and cockroaches will outlive us allOw! Sorry you have the back trouble.
I grew up bouncing around Georgia, Virginia, the Carolinas, and , yeah, kudzu ...
The sun can go nova and vaporize the Earth and there'll be this web of charcoaled kudzu hanging in space ...
And then there'd be a little green sprout appear ...
I mean... When I alluded to using a Tarzan technique, I meant I was literally climbing up using these vines... Some of them were as thick as my wrist.Well, no, but they'll eat everything they can reach, clearing most of the yard. And probably kill the vines around the trees, but you'd still have to clear the remnants.
Please more of these sweet orange boys and trains. I can't tell you how happy those photos make me!Oh, a comment about one photo above: this 45mm gauge, "Gauge 1" track actually bolts together sort-of like the real stuff used to before thermite welding became a thing in the field and other welding became a thing at the factory.
That piece of paper is to reduce the chances of those itty-bitty 5/64 Allen wrench screws falling between the deck boards.
2 screws go in each rail at each joint.
And I didn't lose any of them!
Did fumble the similarly itty-bitty Allen wrench a few times.
Several moments of stress there but it stayed "above board".
The 2 screwdrivers are Phillips head because I'm also using some 2ndhand track and it has screws instead of the Allen head screws in a coouple spots.
There are 2 trunouts/switches I decided to not put in today, my defective body paid a high enough price as it was.
Eventually the turnouts will make a 'cutoff loop' I can switch cars in and out of.
Looked several places in our little county seat farm burg & I'd have to order a 5/64 screwdriver from hobby suppliers.
It would have been a lot easier on my hands but I wanted the track down today, not waiting another couple weeks.
Which may sound a bit odd after having waited since 2009 to get the track!
Yeah, I got several G scale train sets & and 3 individual locomotives in 2009 with some of the disability settlement back pay.
The sets came with indoor-use steel track & I've had it set up on the balcony a few times.
But I wanted the all weather track now since my health is rather less conducive to frequent getting down and getting up.
2nd image below is from May 2010 with that steel "tinplate" track.
In May, 2010, the month before little Georgie kitten joined our lives in June 2010.
I painted the non-UV-resistant plastic ties and the sides of the steel rail to help them stand up to being outside during dry weather.
The large scale trains were a strange wonder to little Georgie.

Took a break from rocket building this week to finish up an RC warbird for an upcoming fly in.
Dornier Do 335 with a 68” wingspan. Flying weight about 13.5lbs. Twin electric outrunner power with with electric retracts. Kit is an ARF balsa model from Black Horse.
I flew U-Control and always hated how the fuel would get all over everything.
So how do you like the electric motors? I flew U-Control and always hated how the fuel would get all over everything. Seems like electric would be so much better.
A couple summers ago, I was able to swim in Lake Superior. The water temperature that day was close to 50 and it still felt like a shock when I entered. I swam out about 100 yards and back, fully submerged once, just to say I have.
Yes, Ford. Also lots of people bringing the cars in for warranty work because when they pushed the center of the steering wheel the horn was broken.I think it was Ford, many years back, that put the horn button on the end of the turn signal lever (whaaAAAAT??). Broken turn signal levers from people slamming the turn signal the way they used to slam the center of the steering wheel...they changed back the next year.
Modern electric aircraft with brushless outrunner motors and lithium polymer batteries give the same or better performance as glow aircraft and cleaning is indeed MUCH easier. Just wipe off the dust. The aircraft last longer as there is no fuel and exhaust damage to the aircraft. And your van no longer smells a little like glow fuel.
