hey addy those pictures make it look quite big, how big is it ?

 

[addy1]

Well at least 3 times the size of my yorkie! Best guess is 18-24 inches long nose to tail, no clue on weight. net says 13 lbs.

As long as he is not doing any real damage, he is welcome to hang around.

 

[mogsie]

wow so it is a decent size critter, well my lily flower finally opened today but it has now closed again so i will get a pic tomorow when it has opened again !

 

[sissy]

congrats it opened mogsie and hope you can get a pic .It seems mine open in the morning for a few hours and thats all

 

[addy1]

mine stay open until 3 or so, then shut, They seem to shut earlier if it is cloudy

your stocking a lake could be funny when someone out there catches a 50 lb . koi or a 100 lb. goldfish we read the story and just say oh well mogsie did it LOL

 

[sissy]

Can't say much here I have dumped 15 buckets of tadpoles in the creek here .I had to laugh went down for the mail and my neighbor was taking his dog for a walk and in our little talk he happened to bring up how noisy the frogs are this year .I said yeh I noticed must have been from all the rain we had this past spring and walk away laughing my butt off .

 

[mogsie]

yeah that would be funny, big lakes for big fish ! not as many babies left now as they were eating each other !!

 

[sissy]

Isn't it strange that they eat there family members .

 

[addy1]

Just a little cannibalism sissy, at least we have some population control with these suckers.

 

[mogsie]

population control ok, i started with about 70 - 80 and i think they are down to about 20 now !!
anyways here is my 1st lily flower yay !!!

 

[sissy]

Thats a nice bright color ,mine where more a peachy pink and at the end more white and a little yellow .I guess the longer they bloom the more they change color ,not sure

 

[addy1]

beautiful mogsie!

 

[sissy]

don't know if I told any own about this.But I use 2 cups of clorox bleach in a 2 gallon pump spray and you can spray down pressure treated wood and bring it back from grey to new looking no hose of just leave it on ..Also if you have dirty vinyl siding do the same thing on a cloudy day and watch it do it's magic ,if it doesn't rain in an hour hose it off dirt will come off too .Same thing with gutters downspouts and your roof .I have been doing this for over 30 years to my house in NJ and the one here .Try a small spot on your house if it's dirty and you will see .Just becarefull not to spray outside light fixtures it could discolor them .I even do my white storm doors and and sliding glass doors
