    I guess cause it's so much hotter n humid down here? That does not exist in this state. I mean there is summer camps but that's it.

    Unfortunately, it is too late. They only stay on the tree for about three weeks then they make their cocoon. They are actually inchworm caterpillars. I believe they live in the ground like Cicadas. I think next year I’ll get the tree service to cut the tree back as it does block the pool from getting more sun. In the fall I can wrap the trees with sticky tree wrap to stop them from moving up and down the tree. I’m gong to do more research about their lifecycle. Right now I have leaves falling off the tree that look like skeletons. They’ve eaten them clean.

    I just said the same thing to clemsonfor about having the tree trimmed back. It’s actually a cluster of 11 Norwegian maples on about 25 feet of the property line, but it looks like one big tree. They are right on the property line so I no I can just cut them down, and I believe my neighbor wants them to stay.

    Now it’s upside down and I’m digging all that heavy clay off the bottom so he can get it out.

    72 Chevy with the dash, firewall, frame and drive train from a 2009. I definitely have mixed feelings about the dash and even the frame. I would think you could rebuild the original frame if you can do that work, even if it was shot, but clearly they were going for the.....updated....look. in kentucky,they want just shy of 30K bucks....

    Nice. What motor and tranny? If new or fresh rebuilds, A/C and all the creature comforts and the old look they will be able to get a good price for it.

    Just says 8 cyl. Doesn't seem to look quite like the 09 4.8 I've seen, so maybe 5.3? If course I could be wrong especially with it being stuffed in that truck. 4.8 or 5.3 anyhoo. Wheels, I notice, are off a 2014 or newer chevy.
