Interesting weed / trees you guys have down there. Are they good for making stuff ? Furniture ? Baskets ? whips for old women who like being whipped ?


Looks like you could make interesting / curved handrails out of them, if they're actually hardwood, vs soft wood .

Would not classify this as hard wood, but maybe a cross between hard and soft. The color of the wood is mostly white with a blood red core. Thought of making furniture but there are no straight branches. The thickest part of the trunk is typically 3 - 4". This is classed as a medicinal tree because the fruit can be made into a tea which supposedly is very good for liver problems.

Wow, another wild rain day here. Heavy winds, short rain but over 2" fell. Crazy - - -now a possible hurricane brewing in the Gulf. I need to get out of here for the month.
No ph00 so go without - - make some here at home.

Hope all is well with everyone - - sure can't tell by the posts, or should I say LACK of posts. BBBOOOOO

Cool fall like weather up here in VT today. It is a nice break from the 90-95F and humid we have had for the past few days.

Made a small pot of ph00 and larger pot of coffee. Have at it.
Just got back from town. Amazing watching a town grow over the years - - - and also the amazing price increase of property values. Oh my gosh.
Just wanted to say b00 and grab a ph00. Have a great one...…………….…………………….

Rained so hard yesterday around home people were stopping on the road because they couldn't see. Yet 40 miles away in Anchorage barely a drop.
Taking this next week off starting today to work on the house. Rented an excavator to knock down some stumps, clear a pad, and work on the driveway. Great deal because of the holiday. 3 days for the price of 1.

Thanks. Will pass on the donuts and coffee today and try some of that ph00 for a change.

Perhaps your daughter should be learning Arabic instead of Spanish? Keep on bringing in Muslims and with their ideology of conquering by encouraging larger families and then Sharia law, soon Arabic will be the dominant language in America. (Is your blood starting to boil yet?)

Depends on where your at Stan. Up here, Russian is becoming more prevalent.
Off the play with yard toys of mass destruction.
