Trimming The Palms

2009-09-10T13:59:00.000-07:00

I have two Fan Palms that have not been trimmed in a few years because they exceeded my 40 ft. ladders height. Sooo I rented a 65 ft lift to trim them.The lift was about 6ft. short but I managed with a pole saw for the rest. Great view up there.

Added Some More Chain To Fence In The Front Yard

2009-05-19T18:23:00.000-07:00

Here is a after and before shot of the extra chain I added to the fence in the front yard. I was thinking it looked funny and needed more chain, two days later my good frind Murph calls and says he has something for me. I went down to his recycling business and guess what..a piece of chain exactly the lenth I needed...I got great friends....

New Fence

2009-02-14T16:58:00.000-08:00

The fence along the gravel driveway was getting in bad shape. Sooo. I asked by good friend Gary if he had any pump rods. He has been very gracious in supplying me with them and he did have some available. I just finished the fence except for some gravel in the bare spots...Thanks Gary....

ROXIE

2006-10-16T12:43:00.000-07:00

After we lost Samantha we were devistated. Our friend Joan, who was the breeder of Smokie and Samantha, took it upon herself to search for a friend for Smokie and us. Joan found "Roxie" in Fallbrook, she was an abused dog and has some problems with people but she is a sweetheart. Samantha was a Princess, Roxie is a Clown and we love her very much. She loves her toys, especially "Puff Balls".

One Of The Saddest Days Of Our Lives

2006-09-03T13:25:00.000-07:00

SAMANTHA , Princess Samantha that is, at least she thought so and we did too, has passed away. She was taken to be GOD's friend this morning. We are heartbroken to say the least and will be for a long time. For every once of love we gave her she gave a pound in return. My tears will have to speak for me I can not say no more. Good Bye Sweet Princess.

Memories

2006-08-09T15:55:00.000-07:00

I miss those High School days and the times shortly after. Crusing Van De Kamps Drive In looking for a drag race or drinking with the buddies or going out to a movie with the girlfriend. Navy, work and family became the priorities. Now retired I can do some of those things again but they are just not the same. Van De Kamps is long gone, don't race on the street anymore, rather see a DVD then go to movies, I don't drink beer that much anymore.. I guess time has passed me by, Oh Well I HAD FUN !!!
