Came across this cleaning up. I can remember the unpleasantness of being on the receiving end of this sucker. Full metal, fully auto airsoft rifle. I remember having straight lines of welts on me when in the line of fire lol.

Thanks for sharing, John. I am not going to ask who was shooting you or why.

Airsoft plastic bbs. We used to have huge battles and capture the flag back in the day. Was fun but painful lol

Sounds like good fun. You would likely go to child services custody today

Lol no one ever made an issue. It wasn't too long ago relative wise. We'd have adults, kids, and teens playing. Everyone though always wore face protection. Otherwise all it's going to do is leave little round welts at most. I miss those days lol just dreaded hearing a full auto after me or a gas powered one as those hurt like hell

Times are changing quickly young man, but time to fast forward from this subject. Cheers.

I'm so glad I have decent temper management and think things through. I'm so angry at my aunt and uncle during this whole estate thing and learning they screwed my step dad over extra pisses me off. Family is super important to me and I help them out all the time. I'm super aggravated with them and it's taken holding my tongue to keep peace. I know if I go off and them it will cause issues and I've got my dads side of how we handle things that you don't disrespect so I'm just ugh

Well not as mad now got some good news. If it works out my family is getting a house with a lot of history. In a town called Hornitos that was a 1800s town there is a old store that was converted into a nice house. It's up for sale and my step father's friend know the owner and they have a meeting on it. So keeping hopes up and will be super neat and bonus for me great metal detecting area.

Inside the Long History of Florida's Deadliest Tree

Its sap proved lethal to Juan Ponce de León

I think you have told us about that tree before, but it is very good to be reminded. So, does the forestry department go around spray painting them, or what?

mornin all.

Unghh.
The little guy was hauled off to the vet bright and early to get his teeth pulled.
I didn't get any details from her royal indoors who's out watering flowers ect. before the heat.
But it was too early to get everyone fired up.

Feel bad for my little buddy.
He'll be miserable a while.
And he stresses in a crate at the vets. I would too.

C'mon coffee. Do something here!

Awwww. How’s the little guy doing?

I gotta tell you my experience. Everyone handles the grieving process differently and adding inheritance “stuff” on top of the process makes the stress levels worse. All I can advise you is to just breath and be very, very forgiving.

I've been quite calm. Pissed off but never have shown it. It's not worth it in the end

I would have thought that getting rid of them permanently would be more in order.

My daughter and son-in-law found a town dump. There are several trees uprooted exposing the trash. I wouldn’t say that I found anything super old, but I got some stuff. I actually left more jars /bottles for someone else to claim.

I have no idea what the sign says. I couldn’t read it and it was too dangerous to climb up the root ball. 🤪😂

I think the milk bottle is the best find.

Well whadaya know....

"informally known as a "beach apple"—are scarce. Aside from the short-term danger, some manchineel compounds may be co-carcinogenic, promoting the growth of benign and malignant tumors."

Why Manchineel Might Be Earth's Most Dangerous Tree

The manchineel tree may be endangered, but so is anyone who messes with it. It ranges from South Florida to northern South America.

Nice. And I think the sign said, "Absolutely No Dianamite". So should be safe from explosions there.

Awwww. How’s the little guy doing?

surprisingly well.
Have him isolated by using the bulldogs pen. He is in the living room with everyone. Just no contact.

Tonge hanging out the side with no teeth now and then.
I'm not sure how many other teeth he has left.
He drank well. Fed him twice ; small portions of soft food. Easy does it after surgery.

Vet did right on not over anesthetizing him it appears. We've had a couple I'd about swear got partly brain damaged.
Full recovery for one took days. No excuse for that in my opinion.

He gave me a couple grunts when I picked him up. His way of saying he is content. He does that when he cuddles on his own free will against me at night too.
Or just when he's all set. l.o.l..

We'll see how mornin suits him.
