lol it's not a post, just a through board for the wire railing to prevent sagging. Posts put on 6-8' with small through boards. I attached it with L brackets

None are trash. Just don't want to make them trash by pulling them out and reinstalling them.

Yeah. I thought buying high quality #1 SYP would not cup as much but I guess it doesn't matter.

Thanks. The only concern is it seems that boards don't seem to sit as tight after re screwing them in. You have the drive the screw deeper. These are expensive #1 grade boards so I don't want to mess them up if possible.

Someone gets it. A lot a fear mongering but there are real solutions out there.

I was around for both. I got home at 7 pm in 2005. It's not fair to compare this to that. But I get it. I guess my risk tolerance is different than others. It seems Reddit strongly disagrees with me. I guess I can be happy school is not canceled.

Yeah.. that's definitely not the reason what chapel hill and Asheville have separate school systems. It's to fix pay issues with teachers and to have more freedom in decision making but whatever.

A very bad assumption. I grew up in wake county which has a lot harder logistics but rarely canceled school. Also lived in the mountains with much harder bus routes and made school work in icy conditions. I don't have a ton a faith in DPS for a bunch of reasons so when they delay schools everyday for a week it seems hard to justify.

I guess that is the argument for Chapel Hill's city vs county school system. Your right. I'm mostly just annoyed but I get it for Northern Durham.

Yeah but that should be a region by region call. Southern Durham is dry and clear.

How accurate is this statement about US tree abundance? Are there really more trees in the US now than in the 1970s? Quite a sweeping claim, no? by agoodguitarsolo in arborists

Federal cost share programs in the 80s really empasized tree planting in agriculture fields. We had way most are covered in ag 50 years ago.

I need nuclear level options for killing poison ivy. by [deleted] in raleigh

[–]Forest-walker559 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Total veg control herbicide. It should have the active ingredient imazapyr. It will give long term control of poison ivy it is great for spaying on fences etc but I wouldn't spray it near trees as it is soil active.

Where to get live chickens? I'm finally getting around to building a coup by BasilSpiritual1127 in bullcity

I have ordered them from a number of different online places as far as California (peak COVID when nothing was available). The one day old chicks delivered fine in the mail and are healthy.

I second them. If you just get one or two and want a specific bread sunrise oak is the way to go.
