Wow just Wow, I love the Apaches, I see another one in my future some day. Wish I had not sold the one I built for Jodi.
Stop in for a cup of coffee

Getting near the point where we can put a little confidence in the Carlisle forecast. Since the first look- temp went up and chance of rain went down.
Today’s good deed is done. Dropped off buddy’s Fargo so he can get to puttering on it. He offered me some of his leftover parts, tink i will go clean up, and throw him some cash.

It's Fairlane Friday!
Good morning
We still have the June Gloom thing goin' on here. Patchy fog overnight and make about 70° in the afternoons. Another month or so and our weather will get summerish
. Heard some news the other day about our circle track. First 2 weekends of August we have USAC open wheelers here . I don't know if the owner ever settled the issues he had with the county stoopidvisors about permitting, but the "racing" permit was never in question. The other revenue raising events the track owner was doing were the cause for all the complaints and legal issues brought up by the neighbors. Time to go racing!

Not sure how much of the country has this problem. Our area is now fully invaded by the Spotted Lantern Fly. I saw this Ailanthus (Tree of Heaven, Chinese/Stinking Sumac) and was ready to go for the weed killer when I took a closer look…
A quick search online tells me to spray with Dawn soap. I noticed Keyword callouts on the article for my least favorite weed tree. Turns out it is these critters favorite! So, for now The few of these plants I found will get a reprieve so I can use them as a collection point to spray the Lantern Flies

Took a break from sanding walls today. Little more garage organizing and pulled some weeds from front flower bed while ground is soft. Also made a qurun across the street to the discount grocery and got a couple cases of bottled water to put in freezer for Carlisle. Still don’t have anything else ready. Lol

If a blind man feels that. Will his hands go numb.
Had them last year sprayed with 7.@Mattax View attachment 1715953036 View attachment 1715953035 Not sure how much of the country has this problem.

It didn't seem to have any effect at first. But they did stop eating and vanished.
Guess they moved on, or starved.
I have seen these traps in pecan orchards here in northeast Arkansas, they must work good.
Its good to find where they like being, let them bunch up and shoot them with a hot water and Dish soap mix. I shoot wasps with it.

Yeh, I haven't done anything else yet. Need to check my other trees. Acording to this list Maple is also a primary target and Black Walnut is on the list. Lots of both of those. Plus a Cherry tree at the back end of the neighbors lot. I do have a Pin Cherry near the house, but didn't notice any on it.

we get the Japanese beetles. They show up late June for a week or so. They like any plant or tree with a flower. Spray them a couple times a day with 7 and they move on.@Mattax View attachment 1715953036 View attachment 1715953035 Not sure how much of the country has this problem.

They mostly eat up the rose bushes. They love Hops too, but I don't have them anymore. Just put out a trap for them the other day and there are hundreds in it already.
Neighbor up the road grows grapes...they love them.
