Lawn - For Grandpa M

Like I said, most posts are usually something Grandma Mallore would be more excited about than Grandpa Mallore.

Well, hopefully this one is for him!

Last week I mowed the lawn on the angle! Yes, that includes all side yards on the angle regardless of being only 5feet wide haha! I took this quick as the sun was going down, so hopefully you can see my lines okay.

Interesting "lawn" type addition. This last weekend before I left for Boston, I took the hard top off my Jeep. Meanwhile, I let the soft top sit on the lawn to stretch out in the sun. It's been shown it's a ton easier to put the soft top on if it's gotten a chance to expand a bit in the sun after being rolled up all winter. Well, I got back from Boston, and there's a dead spot on my side lawn! I don't know exactly what it's from, but it's about 3' square, so I'm hypothesizing it might be from one of the soft top rear window! Maybe it made the sun concentrate like a magnifying glass and kill it! But, why didn't that happen with the side windows?

Paintball

Well, haven't made a paintball post in a while. This weekend is GPL event 2. Not a national tournament, but it's a regional. I'll be playing 5man Sunday and like to ref on Saturday, but looks like I won't be able to because I missed the last ref training/practice. But, I think it was worth it because that day I got to go to Navy and watch 2 awesome games of lacrosse quarterfinals with Mike C and Preston! I also probably would have missed the fun times eating crabs afterwords at Arundel Seafood! Which reminds me, at the time, Tina and I had a little misscommunication about who was paying Preston for crabs, WOOPS!!! We'll just have to cover one of them at Fogo de Chao or something haha!

Here's an action picture of me at an official 7man practice. I love this one because I'm sliding in on my knee with my gun up and you can see the little broken paintball spinning beneath me!

Mem day at foxboro

We thought the flag was going to be an epic fail based on how few people they had carrying it. Boy were we wrong!

Btw this is an update from my phone. No idea if the picture will work!

Sigh

Couldn't get terribly motivated today. That and needed to replace Tina's blackberry b/c the "K" key didn't work well and now I can't get it to resync with her work Calendar. The frustrating part is that theoretically I'm not supposed to be able to sync her work calendar, just the email, because of the type it is, but for some weird reason the sync actually was working before we had to change the phone, regardless that it wasn't supposed to! *sigh* grr. That kind of stuff frustrates me to no end


Oh and PS, remind me to post my post for Grandpa M!

Ticks

Okay, between three over the past week transferred from Kelvin (my dog) to me and FIVE from Turkey hunting, I think I'm spent when it comes to finding ticks crawling on me for the season lol.

Luckily none had attached on yet.

I took a shower, but the trouble with that is I'm so blind without glasses/contacts that I can't actually see in the shower to check myself haha.

Anyway this is a pretty "ewe" post, so I'll follow it up tonight with Juliana and the Dog bowl pt. 2.

Oh and for those wondering, yes, I did really enjoy Turkey hunting even though it's early and we didn't even hear any birds and I got ticks haha. If it could be done without the ticks it would be one of my most favorite so far. Mainly because of the temperatures for Spring turkeys haha. I don't like the cold!

Though the time at Mr. Ambrose's camp was relatively nice weather.

Juliana and the Dog Bowl

Here's the first of two installments of Juliana playing with the dog bowl!

I figured with the exciting post before this, you all would love to see a video.

And yes, my poor hunting dog has to eat/drink out of a PINK bowl...but it's only because I'm too ... thrifty to buy another hehe. Kelvin left his bowls up with his brother in New York. He just belongs with the family I guess lol. Always forgetting something when we visit!

By the way, if anyone wants higher quality versions of these videos I have them saved from my HD video camera on my computer. It's just way too difficult to post them online in the high quality size.


OMG I'M PUBLISHED
