    yes that qualifies as even worse. nothing like a non functional toilet! plus barely functional tires.. not much more annoying than that. you can rely on them to cause big trouble when causes the most harm. slow leaks almost always end up getting replaced. i mt biked the...

    We dont get gorgeous fall color from hardwoods , like midwest and east coast. lots of evergreens here that stay green. the deciduous trees usually turn yellow or brown and drop leaves but no oranges and reds. we get larches changing color in the mountains, usually spectacular...

    oh cathy that is hoot! remember milk chutes? all houses in the midwest used to have them. it was a way to get inside if you were small enough. a little box thru the outside/ inside 15inches square with a door inside and out. so the milkman could deliver milk in the morning and not...
