I'll be leaving

this board....

For 2 weeks! (And here you thought you'd be getting rid of me that easily!

)

But

before I went I wanted to wish all of those facing the biggest "blow job" in their lives the best.

GOOD

LUCK!!

See you in 2 weeks!

Have the greatest of times,

wherever it is you're going!

... Probably Greece or something!

**Jersey Girl** · 09-23-2005, 04:34 PM

I hope you have a wonderful

time!

whereever, whatever have

a great time!

**Mtnjim** · 10-10-2005, 10:00 AM

I'm back!!

Thanks for the well

wishes, but I didn't really go anywhere. I did plant another 100 tulip bulbs and

buy a new car

(the 2006 model). So it ended up being an expensive "vacation".

Very nice little toy!

And

took the time to grow flowers! Good for you, one of the most relaxing things I can think of and it's so nice to

come home to a yard full of colors.

Welcome back. I'm a Mazda owner also.

Ya' I've had this thing for tulips since I was a little kid.

**belgareth** · 10-10-2005, 01:17 PM

Other than a few that I am

allergic too, flowers of all types grow in my yard. It's far more appealing than just a mowed lawn or staring at

fences.

Yes!!
Agreed. I have "decorative grasses" in my yard, They use less water and never

have to be mowed! Much more interesting than an "English lawn". I just would like to have early spring be a time

when my front yard is absolutely carpeted in tulips.

**belgareth** · 10-10-2005, 01:59 PM

That sounds really nice. Over

the past couple years I've put in crocuses because they flower so early, while the grasses are still brown.

Including them, I have flowers about 9 months of the year. There's a side strip on my yard, I have a corner house,

that is beyond my fence and almost impossible to keep up. This fall I will spray it with a pre-emergent and an

herbacide then throw wildflower seeds out there. Get a nice show for just the effort of watering.

I did that (without the

herbacides) in the front strip outside my front fence last fall. Had wild flowers from early spring until now (the

last few). Didn't even have to water 'em this year. I'll do it again later this fall.

**belgareth** · 10-10-2005, 02:32 PM

There are a lot of weeds and

some grass out there that will need to be controlled otherwise I wouldn't either. A local nursery puts out a native

wildflower package I am going to try. Normally I wouldn't worry about watering either but this has been a dry year,

even my pecan trees barely produced this year.

how do you like the car?

i dated a girl who had one it wasnt bad. until i wrecked it on a joy ride with another woman. such a shame to lose

that car.

**DCW** · 10-13-2005, 06:06 PM

I drove a Mazda for 10 yrs until the

engine finally gave out in Feb. of this year.

It's fun, and it gets better gas mileage than my pick 'em up truck (that has

170,000 on it). When I first got it my gf said "midlife crise car" and I told her "yup, now I've got to get a

20something big boobed blond bimbo to decorate the passenger seat" --- she laughed. (She's not 20something or a

bimbo, but the rest fits

)
