Note to self

Whipper snipping (Brush-cutting), tree cutting and mowing are best not down when it's 37 degrees (98.6) and humid outside.

Maybe I should wait till it's cooler? Which would be March and getting to my place would be like one of those old Deborah Kerr, William Holden movies where they hack through the jungle with machetes and have to burn leeches off with cigarettes...

I just started reading books by Larry McMurty (is that how you spell it? I'm not by the books)...who is to Texas and that crazy landscape as Edward Abbey is to the desert southwest. I don't know why your 'jungle' visual made me think of that, but it did. Have you ever read any of his stuff? He came highly recommended to me, so I'm checking him out.

I read Lonesome Dove which I loved, but haven't read any others. I bought them all for work though, and they're very popular...
