I agree we must handle all these containers carefully.

Probably not many dispose of them properly as you say.

My point is whether they are properly disposed of or not, I am amazed at the amount of plastic that is contained in each of these packages and that many of them are probably not disposed of properly thru recycling if recycling is allowed.

He decided he wanted to move closer to town, and that is when the place went up for sale. We love it too and I am blessed to be able to retire and now help take care of the place full time. It sure is different than living in a subdivision!

Lunch break is over.....heading out to help spray poison ivy! I can't belief how rampant that stuff is!

You will find out as the years go by that you want less and less to mow and let more & more go back to nature. I wish we could put astroturf on our 1.48 acres and sell both Cub Cadets. 'Course I am extremely lazy too!

X2 on the less to mow. Up until this home, we have had large yards and I did the mowing, bagging, edging, blowing off and everything else required to keep the yard looking nice. I had the gas powered lawn mower, edging machine, blower and the electrical shrub trimmers and all the electrical extension cords in the garage.

When we moved into this home, all that stuff went away and Now I gladly pay my yard man to do it for us.

Well, I'm 70 years young and I plan on staying that way by being as active as I can. I really enjoy mowing, cutting wood and splitting and all the stuff that goes with owning property in the country. We know the time will come when we can't take care of it, but until that time comes I'm going to keep on keeping on and enjoy it.

Coot I have my lazy streaks too.... and I enjoy them from time to time.

IT WILL ALL WORK OUT FOR YA. JUST work away at it a little at a time bephore you know it you'll be able to sit back and relax. The spot were we built our cabin was overgrown like a jungle, you name it we had it growing there. Grape vines, poison ivy, wild roses, and berry bushes of all description. Now we a terrific view phorm the phront porch.

Girl, that's when you have to put that pretty head to work and think of a way to do it with tools, etc. If it's lifting or moving a rock, log, get a pry bar, etc. Being a transplanted Missourian, you just have to improvise.
