New Lawn

admin — Sun, 16 Nov 2008 17:12:11 +0000

So we re-seeded our front yard for the winter. We 25lbs of Pennington Annual Rye Grass from Home Depot.

It cost about $20 bucks. Mow the grass on the lowest setting and bag it. then run your sprinkler about 2 mins. This will give the seed a wet bed when he lands. Plus it helps see your tire tracks from the spreader.

Put the seed on thick, if you use a scotts spreader set it to like 13. We watered ours for 4min every 2 hours until it grew.

Old School Rafting Trip

I found this old CD while I was looking for another one. So I decieded to post them up here. I can remember when we were putting on our wet suits and everybody in camp was talking about how many people had been killed rafting the royal gorge, we got so scared. Some of us, me included, almost backed out. Category 5 rapids. The State river authority was there to lock the gate behind us. We were the last boat allowed on the water, then they were closing the entry. The riders that day were:

Denny Bolden “Man I hope my insurance was paid up”
Jeff Nelson “It looks like rain, we should try tommorow”
Mike D “Dude, I ain’t even going!”
Kelly O “Mike D…. you pussy”
Roy Voss “Ain’t nothin to it, but to do it”

Broke Down

admin — Sat, 06 Sep 2008 20:45:19 +0000

I wanted to post my last event, but actually forgot, dang-it. The belt tensioner on my car broke and the belt was so loose that the power steering wouldn’t work. The part was $82 which pissed me off, but it only had 2 bolts holding it in. I stripped on so bad that I had to get a screw extractor and drill out the head. But wouldn’t you know it, the extrator broke off in side. So I put the air hammer on it for like half an hour. Still no good.

The next day I hit it with the grinder and a carbon fiber cut off wheel. FINALLY after 2 days I removed the one bolt. Everything was a breeze after that. I should have had pictures of me and the bolt. It was messy.

Garage Sale, Estate Sale, Front Lawn Sale

admin — Sat, 06 Sep 2008 20:40:50 +0000

Today Sept6 we decided to move all the junk out of the garage and carry it out to the front yard. Then we made up some signs and placed them in the neighborhood. Got on craigslist and registered a garage sale list and hit submit. 20 min later this place was crawling with people. All holding this list of things we said we had for sale on craigslist. I mean waves of people, all walks of life. In the end we pocketed $275. And at the end of the day I was just giving it away. If someone asked me “how is this?” I said, “its yours” So here are some shots of the day.
