  • Die Bugs Die

    Or at least that is the theory. I bought some grub control today 25 bucks for a bag of the stuff. I hope it works. I also found that the cottonwood tree at the very back of the yard is actually dying. The Bark is split, badly, on the main branch. have thought all along […]

  • Worst Drive Ever

    That horrible desolate “well-maintained” (please note the dripping sarcasm) stretch from Gallup to Cortez. We were only on it for an hour from Farmington to Cortez, but it still was way to long. The day started off with me and Logan going and washing the EDV to remove all the white “sands”. As we came […]

  • White Sands My Butt!

    Try White cement. There are two things (probably more, but for the sake of the story) about the Las Cruces are that everyone knows about White Sands Missile Range where the first Atomic weapon was detonated and White Sands National Park where they try to pass concrete off as sand. This post deals with the […]

  • EL Pinto and the Temple

    Today we left Cruces for Albuquerque. It was an ok drive the road was not to bumpy and the EDV rides pretty smooth, so the ribs weren’t as bad as they could have been. The temple was quite nice some of Nolan’s family was there; his brothers David and Charles and sister Diane along with […]

  • Horses, Cable Rides, and BOOM

    Happy 4TH of July, as we celebrate this time please take time to remember and pray for those in harms way defending our way of life. Our 4th started with me getting up and helping Nolan finish the path to his lawn shed. They have a very, very nice backyard. I was very jealous; I […]

  • CAPPED and Dolphns

    Today was Alamogrodo day. We got up and Stephanie came over and we all talked for a while. We needed to be in Alamo around 1 so away we went. One of the real interesting facts of life down there is to leave Las Cruces you have to go through a Border Patrol check point […]

  • Life Is A Highway

    … All night long.  20 hours on the road, now that’s a party!!  The trip started with Dad’s birthday party which was a great time.  We stayed that night at the house I turned in early because we planned to leave at 3 in the AM (insanity is fun you should try it some time).  […]

  • Creepy, Crawly, and Killing My Lawn

    That’s right folks I’m talking about bugs. After over watering and under watering the same dying patches of my lawn I have come to a unmistakable conclusion: Something is eating the roots out of my lawn. My neighbor was having the same problem and he put down something to kill them and pushed them to […]

  • Ranch Chicken

    Chicken quarters or just thighs (You could use breasts but they just don’t have the favor) 1 lb shell pasta (Don’t mess around, Bertolli is the best that you can buy in a grocery store in America or Italy) 1/4 cup sour cream 1/2 can of chicken broth 2 tsp onion powder 2 tlbs of […]

  • Camping Out, Sleeping In

    Now that the system is <a href=”http://angrygardner.com/?postid=3″>closed</a> I decided  that we could start sleeping outside in the tent and what not.  Just because we live in the big city doesn’t we can’t live like hicks right?  We, the kids, the dog, and I, wait around for the temps to drop a little and set up […]
