Pics of your abode...

That is pretty damn fabulous! I'm green with envy, pun intended. Especially for the greenhouse/potting shed. I've always been a city dweller and my gardening limited to the size of my deck or patio. Don't know what I'd do with that much garden, but I'd like to try. You have your own paradise there. I love gardens. Whenever we travel, we always include the local botanical garden or any gardens of note that are open to the public.

Hi Lenny, looking chill and content.

 
I work from home so I make my own schedule. I have had my own garden since I was about 16yrs old. I love it. On the left of the 1st pic you will see my banana trees. Yummy!!! I eat salad everyday lol...It's a lot of work but I enjoy it and it helps my tan :)

You should see the wild life on my lake....crazy the verity of birds

Flip flops ans shorts 90% of the year...I'm starting to sound like a hipie so I'll stop :)

 
Lenny!!!!   GREAT garden!!! I love to garden and I have a huge back yard now compared to Chicago.  yay!

 
The banana trees give it that tropical flair, but I think "they" are watching you from that helicopter. Better stick to legal crops.

 
haha! So true!

It would be hard to grow anything illegal as I am in the heart of Orlando, FL. I know it's hard to tell but not much seclusion.

I love growing Hibiscus and Magnolia's. In the Spring the smell in my garden is hypnotic. I often sit in my garden late at night when the moon is bright and smoke a nice cigar. So relaxing and the lake "life" sounds during the day are great.

One of my favorite things to do is go out by my lake at about 11:30am...there is a elementary school about 3 miles away on the other side of the lake...the wind carries the children's laughter all the way across when they are at recess ... I can hear the sound of life being lived without pride or pretense...just reckless abandonment...their honest laughter heals me.

It can be...but fortunately being on the lake there is a constant breeze...the only saving grace.

 
Uber smash ,

A Crock?

Ok, smile...

 I recall the last time we were in Florida we flew in and rented a car for B.R. area, we were driving on a large stretch of road than never seem to stop and on the side of the road appeared to be a large trench like that had a hole in it as if it were a sur drain?   We drove and drove and at around sunset their was a guy out changing his tire by the trench  and all I could imagine was a large crock jumping out at him. I've  heard of things happening like this. Have you ever come across one of these lovely beasts? Hope not!

Do have a lovely day!

it was a dog and the pic I'm trying to post won't show up...I will update as soon as I can.

I grew up here so I have seen and eaten my fair share of alligators :)

People often have that "picture" of Florida...but this is where I live...this is one of my favorite spots on the planet.

Thanks Alley!! You are a sugar plum! Rome????? ohhhh my! Please and Thank you!

What's so cool about that place (pic above) for me is that I took my fist real date there when I was 16. It was late spring and the entire place smelled of Magnolia.

She was intoxicating...she is just as beautiful now as she was then...even more so. Her dad is my best friend and I see her often.

She was my first for EVERYTHING...to this day I have never loved anyone as honestly as I did/do her.  She is married to an awesome man. They are beautiful together.

My University is on the same chain of lakes as the pic above...our crew team launch 50yrds from where the pic above is. I've been working on my masters since I kicked my addictions...here is a few pics of my school.

@UberSmash I love all the pictures, simply majestic, however the one that struck my eye was the Florida Gator gardening knee pad!!! Go Gators!!!!

 
@JenG. lol...something left over from my ex...she was a beautiful women, a Gator Girl...and completely fucking crazy....she is an RN and I still wonder sometimes if people know "who" is caring for them!

Winner? well you lose as much as I have and things are bound to work out eventually!!!

I have messed up so much in my life. Hurt everyone I ever loved. I had to make some changes and I started about 1 1/2 years ago. Slow progress. I broke a lot of trust...takes time to rebuild that. But it's never to late to become the person you truly want to be.

Thanks for the encouragement! I need it...

So what do we have in common with all those BEAUTIFUL trees?

  1. 3 @ 3ak: @xenxra damn shame, can't find any of the rc stims
  2. xenxra @ xenxra: @3ak mostly, will prob be gone entirely by end of summer imo
  3. F @ frozenSR17: hope everyone has a nice start 2 their weekend. "keep it one hunnid," as someone once said to me
  4. 3 @ 3ak: 4f-mph dried up?
  5. xenxra @ xenxra: pretty sure black also went rogue sometime late last year
  6. Strawhat7 @ Strawhat7: Yo, whatever happened to Mr. Black? Just got a rando email from him after ghosting me like a year and a half ago
  7. LW815 @ LW815: Know what’s really going on in somebody else’s head or how much they’re really dealing with and feel like they’re left with no other options. Been a very sad few days but 2 complete (irl anyway) strangers cared enough about what I was going through to talk to me about it, though they owe me nothing and have no reason to help my personal pain other than the kindness in their own hearts. Just shows that this place is a real community, not just a forum of people who only care about themselves.
  8. LW815 @ LW815: Was nodding in/out the entire time writing those shouts and spparently was fully out sending the last one lol. But II find it ‘uplifting’ as two people I’ve never actually met and only know the others online presence through subscriptions, who I have a better chance of getting a handy J from Jesus Christ himself, both were so quick to share their own experience and wise words and assurances that things will look up and not to feel guilty or be mad at somebody for going that route - as you never
  9. xenxra @ xenxra: @hotdog45 meh, same difference. they both got blacklisted on here. wouldn't be the first time a rogue shop sent out unsolicited comms after the fact.
  10. MOD @ MOD: Hello @everyone
  11. LW815 @ LW815: Own personal experience with this kind of this type kind of situation and sympathized with my pain when I really just needed somebody to talk to. Both went out of their way to help a stranger in a time of need when I really needed somebody, and body to talk to. MM
  12. LW815 @ LW815: Sent a simple conf email and I just dropped a ball on them. I really just needed to let it out, didn’t expect them to reply in such a thoughtful way that it drastically changed the rest of my day and mindset for the bette . Above and beyond - and the last night while chatting with another that I knew had at least once one child,, so i wished them a belated happy Father’s Day, which again caused me to spill it all to them and again received the most thoughtful and kind response, as well as their-
  13. LW815 @ LW815: They didn’t need to. They could have just continued on with the nature or the main purpose of what the relationship between us is, I didn’t really have anybody else to let it out to at the time and they both went far beyond what I’d expect. Not that I’d assumed they’re cold/A-holes - it was just a lot from somebody who’s technically a competent stranger. A very close friend of mine committed suicide on Father’s Day and iwas emotionally wrecked witih nobody to talk to, and the first author just
  14. LW815 @ LW815: @Mokachin0 not really uplifting in the normal sense, but two popular authors on here took the time out of their likely very busy days to not only read my massive walls of text, but both also replied with the most kind, thoughtful and positive responses when I randomly dumped my personal problems into their laps
  15. H @ hotdog45: I have never ordered mags from him I meant
  16. H @ hotdog45: @xenxra I thought that too but after digging on the site it is chemical cabinet. Either way I deleted the email. I have ordered mags from him, but I thought you guys should know he's reaching out to people again. After reading the thread if anyone gets an email from him I would suggest doing the same.
  17. xenxra @ xenxra: @hotdog45 isn't that ghost? he threw his rep in the trash and got blacklisted
  18. O @ oh be g: thank you! hopefully this will inpsirw someone!
  19. M @ Mokachin0: @oh be g check your dms!
  20. O @ oh be g: these were instilled in me by a coworker who has had about the worst trauma experiences in life and he is still the most positive upbeat guy ive met
