I would love to, but 1) I have to actually show up at work soon, and 2) it's too darn hot. Y'all don't have enough shade trees down there...

Have we set a date for the soiree yet?

Not yet, I believe BB and MK are going thru calendars and finding a date that won't conflict.

And...how much does it cost to get a 'properly placed' full grown tree in
your 'clear cut' lot?....or do you wait twenty years?

Shade Trees?...that's why we Floridians invented Air Conditioning....
(stir)

Indeed! :clap: I remember the story on my favorite channel...Beach TV! My Daddy, the engineer, designs HVAC for large commercial sites in Houston, even still at 83! A/C fed, clothed,educated and cooled me! I :love: my Daddy, A/C, TX and FL!!!!!

Don't get me started...don't EVEN get me started. :bang: The people continue raping the land for McMansions in my hood here in Dallas. My neighbor cut down two 50+ year old American Elm trees just inside his property line to my west for a four car garage to go with his 6,500+ sq. ft. monster on a half acre lot, that no one here has on an interior lot. These beauties shaded my house from the western sun. I read him the riot act thinking he was the builder...whoops, I knew his wife from son's school, but not him. He ended up calling me and offered me $5,000 to replant trees on that side. I spent $4,000 on a red oak and three river birches and sent him the bill...he paid it. He went on to plant Bradford Pears :eek: on his side...which are stunting the red oak. He is a criminal and a selfish sob. :angry:

kingfishn...you just get it and I applaud you. :clap:

damm...can't sleep, but that felt GOOD! :D

Ummm...I just read this part. Why do you ass-ume I have a clear cut lot? I have a 50-year-old red oak hugging my front door (and keeping me from needing central AC) and a bunch of other trees loving my land, too. (When you click that link, I'm the middle of all the broccoli-looking stuff. Those are trees.)

If some of you guys are there, I'd like to say hello. But, we need a way for you to identify me. Perhaps I could show up in an Afro wig, black shorts, pink shirt and white knee-high socks..just don't want to look touristy..hehe
