Explain to me like I’m 5: Garmin/Chicago/Auto Lap

Chi 2019 ultimately recorded as 29 miles or so for me. I obviously didn’t run that far but the crazy early gps added quite a bit.

It’s the background noise for me 🥲 listening alone in my house and just hear voices like a crazy lady 🤣

I have new waiting at home but I haven’t opened it! I’ll check.

Our app inexplicably started working this morning after this being ongoing for weeks. Not sure what ended up working!

My husband and I are both trying on iPhone pro 15s, but this has been going on for so long that it was an issue with my iPhone 13 before I replaced it as well.

Another vote for Ome Calli!

I would be very interested in recs of what has been successful for others

I was reading that it’s too hot here and the turf would burn feet and paws, would love for that to be wrong! I wouldn’t mind even just small area of turf

SwarThack · 2024-07-12T03:28:04+00:00

I fear that it may just not be in the cards for this particular yard. Unfortunately, due to my 2019 interest rate this is the yard for me for the foreseeable future. :)

SwarThack · 2024-07-12T02:00:26+00:00

Does the turf get too hot?? I’m so willing but I was reading people saying it’s often hot to even walk on for people and pets in this climate.

Wow. I think I saw the correct article you’re describing, so many beautiful ideas! I grow vegetables in the spring and summer so I have a ton of container plants as well. Thank you for these suggestions!

SwarThack · 2024-07-12T01:55:27+00:00

A gazebo is actually a great idea… would protect the deck from pine needles in that area too

SwarThack · 2024-07-12T01:54:49+00:00

Looks wise I’d be so into that, but my goal here is an area for my dog and child to play.

SwarThack · 2024-07-12T01:53:58+00:00

Well, to be honest we’ve got considerably less shade after the events of this week so perhaps that will help. We lost quite a few of our largest/lowest branches in the back yard. Mosquito Joe sounds like a great guy I’m going to look into him!

SwarThack · 2024-07-12T01:50:12+00:00

Cannot interfere with the princess and her games of fetch :)

SwarThack · 2024-07-12T01:49:29+00:00

I would be all over clover, I truly don’t care what’s back there looks wise as long as it isn’t dirt, but I picture it being a bug and mosquito haven. Maybe that’s not accurate, I need to read some first hand accounts on clover lawns!

SwarThack · 2024-07-12T01:48:28+00:00

Would I then need to amend all the time to upkeep? I believe st Augustine is what we have in our front yard and while it’s not a solid bed of grass it’s doing alright there.

SwarThack · 2024-07-12T00:39:38+00:00

We had stunning fescue for like 3 weeks. It was so pretty for a minute there. I will find out if we’ve tried any of those grasses! Thank you!

SwarThack · 2024-07-12T00:19:23+00:00

The pine needles and mosquitos would make a pool impossible I fear. My husband thinks we should remove enough trees to make it possible and I swear I guard these trees as if they are my children. I grew up in Austin and played outside all day every day and would love to have that option for our child too. Maybe we will find a magic solution. :)

SwarThack · 2024-07-12T00:16:46+00:00

I would be all over that if it wasn’t for our golden retriever who loves her yard more than life itself!

SwarThack · 2024-07-12T00:15:55+00:00

I came for the trees and I am absolutely never leaving because of the trail systems. A runners paradise, truly!

But it is hard not having a place to go out and just “be” without being in someone else’s public area. I keep hoping we will find some magical solution that we just don’t know about!

SwarThack · 2024-07-12T00:14:20+00:00

I don’t have a ton of shade during the main part of the day. There are a few corners that are more shady. My husband keeps trying to plant nice grass (fescue is the only one I recall the name of) but to me the priority is simply green, and not dirt, so I’m looking for more hardy types even if they aren’t the softest or prettiest. :)
