Hendersonville, North Carolina.

I like my "Two Hot Dog Combo" with chili, mustard and grilled onions; rings; and Mountain Dew with a slash of Cheerwine.

A place to celebrate delicious hot dogs!

Japanese beetles are driving me crazy. I am thinking this might be the only way to fight them (not defeat them, but it will make me feel better.) My son says this will only stun them. . . not electrocute them. Thoughts?

Lawn care guides, pictures, and discussions. Read the rules.

For what it is worth - I donated a fair amount of blood this evening to get this shot. SLAP - got another of those suckers.

I declare war on Japanese beetles. They say don&#39;t place the traps near your house or garden because they will attract them - but I already have squadrons flying around. Shouldn&#39;t I place them near where they are?

My mom was the best cook. . . .

I used to love taking a bath. . .

On the road

I was mowing and it started to rain. Just a drizzle. Can you use mower, weed Wacker etc in the rain -- how hard? Also, best way to clean - can I hose it or do I have to hand wipe it?

I still have red dye on my fingers.

I grilled my own Father&#39;s Day dinner: pork loin, Vidalia onion, and fire roasted corn on the cob. Yummy.

One of my all time favorite places is the Oklawaha Brewing Company right off Main Street in Hendersonville, NC. Hung out on their sidewalk deck with a few friends and this yummy &quot;Melt&quot; pour.

Seriously?? What is the most absurd soda-branded, non-soda product you have come across?

Vertibird -The 70s version of a drone.

My parents: &quot;You will put your eye out playing with a Vertibird.&quot; 8-year old me: &quot;That&#39;s cool. I can accept that.&quot;

These cows have the best view on the planet.

I have a pretty powerful corded WORX blower but was looking to switch. Even with the 2.5 battery, this seems really heavy. (And the bigger blowers even heavier and bulky.) What is your experience with the weight and bulk of these blowers?

Saw this fountain at a small barbeque joint near Asheville, NC. Was just getting a to go order so did not get to try anything (I plan to visit again soon for lunch). Does anybody have any experience? I am intrigued by the Blueberry.

Has anyone actually had an Orange Whip?
