Was lucky this morning. Picked up 12 bags already raked and bagged up. Yes this old guy yelled at me once for stealing his pine straw on the street in front of his house not from his yard. He cussed at me and everything (well he said “that’s my damn pine straw” so that’s kinda cussing). He is in his 90s I think and an original owner for sure. It was when I first moved in the hood. I sent him a note and apologized for my ignorance in city life and didn’t know about the rules of asking first. He later in a couple of weeks brought me two bags of pine straw and said he felt like such a fool when he got my note and told me I could rake there anytime I wanted. I still stay away from that yard.
my loot today…

I've got that much and probably more to blow off the barn roofs today. The Old Hen gave me strict instructions NOT to go up on the roof until she gets back from town. I asked her what she thought she was gonna do if I happened to fall. She scared the holy hell outta me when she said she'd block my fall with her body. A 200 pound hippie falling off a roof would most likely kill her. I ain't goin' up 'til she promises to stay in the house or at least a hundred feet away. I love that woman, and there's no doubt in my mind that she would do something stupid like that trying to save me. I'd do the same for her, but she ain't gettin' up there!
That straw is slippery hippie. Be careful up there wear good shoes.

House and it's over 200' of gutters are done! Caught a bad case of stink eye from the Old Hen when she pulled in and saw me up there. Made a special trip to come over and eat my fanny. I told her she said the barn roofs, not the house roof.
I'm beat. Still got the barn roofs to blow off and the gutters to clean. They might have to wait 'til tomorrow. It's 51 out there, but up on a white shingled roof, it felt like a hundred. I even pealed out of my shirt 'cause I was overheating like a big dog.
I remember back in my early 30's that some 68 year old man was in critical condition after falling off his roof. I'm thinking, "What was that crazy old bastard doing up there? He's too damned old for that shit."
Now, I'm the crazy old bastard......

My friend had her Father up on a ladder near the edge and fell down and died 4 days later.
He insisted.

What do they usually do with their pine straw?Good morning y’all. It’s nice and warm here today and my pine straw fetish is wearing on me seeing it all fall down. Gonna try to do some raking on the street without pissin’ anyone off this year for stealing their street straw. Hope everyone has a sweet day. Something for the ladies this morning. Let’s have a sip of coffee first

Sampling the Durban Poison today. On the second Marley now. Although I didn’t expect much from this shaggy weed grown outside with the little buds, both Mr Subbie and I agree it’s some pretty good weed. I didn’t save a lot of it for smoking as it was the biggest pita to trim thinking that it may not be good anyway. He said it was pretty stick and a bit hard to grind and roll. Most of it went into the kief bag. Anyway, just thought I’d report that it was an ok choice and would grow it again for sure. Maybe in the tent where I feel more comfortable.
Give the DP another fair shot there SG - amazing stuff
Some use it to rake it up under their trees. I am careful not to take it from in front of yards where they do that. Some tho just leave it on the street to rot and it’s pretty slippery in driveways easy to fall on. It makes for nice bedding coverage. I like the way it looks and it keeps the weeds down in my flowerbeds. Not good for veggies or weed tho.
