did it work?

 

[Hippie420]

Yep.

 

[Bubba]

indeed!

this sailor is another inspiration!

and a salty dog




Slocum joined the crew of a merchant vessel at 16 and from that time on spent most of his life at sea.

In 1889 he wrote Voyage of the Liberdade about one of his passages and in 1894 Voyage of the Destroyer about another.

In April 1895 he set sail from Boston in the 36-foot 9-inch (11.1-metre) Spray, an old fishing boat built about 1800 that he had rebuilt. He sailed alone, following a route that took him to Nova Scotia, the Azores, Gibraltar, South America, Samoa, Australia, South Africa, the West Indies, and finally, in June 1898, to Newport, R.I., to complete his circumnavigation.

He had sailed 46,000 miles (74,000 km) in three years, two months, and two days.

In 1899 he wrote Sailing Alone Around the World, which became a classic in the literature of the sea.

In 1909 he set sail from New England in the Spray to spend the winter in Grand Cayman and was lost at sea.

He was assumed to have been the victim of a collision; he and the Spray were never found, and in 1924 he was declared legally dead.

You are 5ft 8 and wear 34 length? I'm 5ft 10 and wear 32 lengths and they fold up a little. Ya bastard, you must be all legs.

I'm about the same height, 30 length is perfect usually for jeans. I used to wear 36 waist, now 33 is a touch roomy. A few years ago when my body decided no more booze was the main thing, and not eating out 3 times a day. (And drinking at the same time)

Boo must have some long legs and a short torso to be 5ft 8 and use 34 length in jeans.
I'm 5ft 10 and 32s stack up on my shoes.
I'm a 34 waist.

 

[Unca Walt]

I am 5'8 as well and wear 32-30 pants currently.

Well, I wear 44... but I never wear anything but shorts.

 

[Tattered Old Graywolf]

Also at 5'8", I'm as short legged as Boo is long, wearing 34 X 29" trousers.

Was that strip of ditch control burned?

 

[user 60570]

Was that strip of ditch control burned?

Yes Sir.

The dirty deed was most likely done by county maintenance workers.

I do not believe it was a farmer or land owner because it is public hunting ground owned by the state.

My first wife was like that. She should have been a short person, but extra long legs!

I just gotta axe: Does some Johnny Appleweed come by back roads spewing seeds from a hay baler? How did real weed get there (eg: Not the rope-making kind.)

Those are hemp plants left over from before cannabis was made illegal.

me and Swede have been throwing theories back and forth on who , what, when , and where…

1. it looks deliberate to us , definite starting and finishing point , not random

2. who would do such a thing?…
stoopid idea , some dummies scattered the seeds early spring..

has to be tweekers or dumb teenagers , anyone with brains would not waste seeds nor plant them out in the open like that

the plants should come back next spring because of all the seeds which will drop to the ground and start the next cycle

anyway , that is my theory

 

[dogster]

The birds spread the seed.

I have always heard stories about Kansas ditch weed. Never did see any but I guess it used to grow wild there. Some called it loco weed.
