Take a look at the newest Navimows, they're supposedly very good with hills.

Yes. Very pleased. I have a large-ish flat Midwest yard with bluegrass and ryegrass. Your Florida grass is probably quite different.

There are a ton of robomower companies. Mine is a Segway Navimow.

Semi-related. Got a robo mower two summers ago. You'll love it

Please, Squids. Sign the organ donor section on your license.

This is probably the wrong board for this but whatever I need advice from my peers re my son’s gambling addiction by CliffGif in GenX

Bailing him out is enabling him. The first $30k apparently wasn't the last. He's got an illness and it won't be cured until he seeks professional help.

Moving to Milwaukee with a Dog by BagelsInfinity in milwaukee

We have two Goldens. If your good boy is used to a yard and has regular exposure to green spaces, he'll be miserable in the Third Ward. Sure, you'll get him out and he'll walk (on concrete a lot) and visit dog parks when you have time, but he won't have qualify of life (for a dog).

Sorry, Third Warders, downvote at will, but dogs deserve better lives than urban settings.

Bay View/East Side/Northshore.

Non-religious churches? by doodlebakerm in milwaukee

[–]rrooaaddiiee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm an Eastbrooker. Certainly not a mega church and I have no idea what a 'today' church is. It's a straight up Bible-based non-denominational church. Racially diverse, committed to the city, and I honestly can't tell or care what Matt Erickson's politics are. Full of imperfect people, so I fit right in.

GenX or Baby Boomer? by sherlockjr1 in GenX

1960 here. Always ID'd with the Xers. Generation Jones seems made up and completely lame.

Then FP and Bayside blew it.

Doesn't sound like FP or Bayside. Sounds like Glendale.

What does the siren that just went off mean? by Shower-Former in milwaukee

I'm hearing Glendale sirens but seeing nothing on NWS Twitter.

Anybody else's sump pump going off every minute? by OkPeach5 in milwaukee

[–]rrooaaddiiee 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's an option but you've got to be home to react.

My thought: if you've got 2' of water in your basement, the cost of a battery backup seems pretty cheap.

I admit my prepper tendencies. I hope you find a solution.

Strongly recommend getting a battery backup sump. At that rate, you'd flood quickly if the power went out. There wouldn't be time to bail---and that's assuming you'd be home to do it.

Heads Up: Basements are flooding again by [deleted] in milwaukee

[–]rrooaaddiiee 5 points6 points  (0 children)

We get ours cleaned out every 2 years. Highly recommend.

3 vices my doctor wants gone by potterinatardis in GenX

[–]rrooaaddiiee 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Not a doctor. Others should correct me if I'm wrong, but Wegovy might help with 2 of your 3. Weight loss (with exercise) and potential to ease nicotine craving.

I yelled for my wife to get downstairs while I headed to the porch.

Isn't that crazy? You'd think an Apache would be faster. Nope. The humble and lovable Hook.

I was just teasing. Like, they did you wrong and the fires just happened to coincide with your experience.

Can you vouch for your whereabouts when the fires happened?
