I second that. The only problem is that staying on the west side of Zion, where they'll be, significantly increases the drive time to Bryce. If you want to do both Zion and Bryce, staying somewhere in the vicinity of the Hw...

Yes, there was a bit of smartassness in there, but there's also a wealth of other information there just a few clicks away. I've never watched a WNBA game in my life and I don't have any plans to, but I'm not the least bit bothered that a company is putting it's product on the front page of their w...

You do realize it only takes a click or two to get into the college football section right? At the top of my home screen, I see options for NCAAF, NFL, NBA and MLB. I don't see one for the WNBA. If ...

***Metrics say they’re overdue
Despite their struggles, the Braves led MLB in hard-hit percentage (44.5) and average exit velocity (90.4 mph) before Sunday, two metrics in which they also led a year ago, when they topped most major offensive cate...

The Nantahala Outdoor Center is right down the road. The Appalachian Trail passes right through it, so you can hike on that in either direction for as long as you want.
You can schedule all kinds of activities through them as well. They have a legit kayaking course there. It can be fun watch...

There are also inflatable booster seats for anyone that may need one of those. Very easy to inflat...

re: Japanese Wisteria Tree - Any experience with these?

Asian Wisterias are definitely invasive and can easily get out of control, but there are some non-invasive types in the US.

I finally made the move to fubo.
Comcast is actually directing people to fubo for 30% off the first two months. That's wild. I'm guessing they're trying to keep people from going to Directtv for 2 years, even though there is a streaming option for that that's month to month. Or maybe they have...

That's what we had and still sort of have. The one side closest to the fence is still in decent shape, but the middle and closer to the house are just sort of bare and spotty at best. We have a wildflower bed that takes up about 2 feet between the grass and the fence that...
Best groundcover plants that can be walked on?
Posted by CharlieTiger on 5/13/24 at 2:45 pm
I'm looking for the best option for groundcover plants that can also double as a walkway. It won't get significant foot traffic, but I'm trying to avoid a rock path. It may end up being that, but would like to have some sort of groundcover plants if possible.
Our house faces directly west and...
