One night here http://www.beaumontinn.com/rooms.html with my husband and parents to kick off a three day adventure on the Bourbon Trail through Kentucky. Going to have a fancyish dinner and bourbon tasting there, then spend the next three days driving around and touring bourbon distilleries.
You're going to have fun. Used to live in ky and it's always a blast doing this.

Trip report: So many of you doubted the excellence that would be Piff The Magic Dragon. Unfortunately I can't confirm or deny this. However, the Zombie Burlesque show was good. It was a small theater with decent but not great sound. I had plenty of laughs, saw some zombie butt, point ballet, pole dancer and a contortionist for like $60 for 2 tickets for 90 min show.

If you're okay with LBGT (gay jokes & cross dressing ) humor you're probably okay. Otherwise they might corrupt you by making you like that pretty women who is actually a man and you'll be going straight to fire and brimstone.

I mean it looks like it's a mirror. You can see the wood grain from the floor and the bottom of the chair legs in the top left but then the gap and the black display part on the bottom confuse me. But it clearly has a vent shaft so :psyduck: . I request that you take more pictures once you move in.

We've been together for 18 years. Getting married has never been a priority for me and this year she decided it's something she wants to do. I proposed to her a while ago because I knew it was something she was interested in so I wanted to try and make her happy. Good joke though.

135 is like death valley. I've never seen it above 125 in PHX. Tips for living in an oven.

Keep you house at 80 to help acclimate.
Have a pool and live in it. Or better yet have access to a pool so yo don't have to take care of it.
DON'T GO OUTSIDE unless it's to get into a car that has good AC.
Remote start & sun shade & park in the shade
I literally know the suns movements and park in a spot that gets shade an hour before I leave work.
Wear black so your sweat doesn't show or white to reflect suns rays.
Just loving leave. 2hr north is Flagstaff that's like 80F right now.

Ha, I'm lucky if my battery last 2yrs. I miss living in a more temperate place. In Arizona during the summer Auto Zone is swamped with people replacing batteries because the heat absolutely kills them. I always get the 3yr warranty battery and it gets replaced at least once under warranty every time.

You could always start your own composting. But as Flash mentioned. Usually organic material gets handles in different manner. For instance in Az I have a big green trash bin similar to your blue one there that is restricted to plant waste(yard clippings, trimmed branches etc).

If your mower is this one it has a mulch setting. This will leave the grass clippings in the yard as you mow. Some people don't like this because it will turn brown and "My yard doesn't look as good" - https://www.homedepot.com/p/EGO-21-...102SP/206515944

the lawn mower without first stopping the motor, removing the
battery pack and waiting for the blade to stop rotating.
1. Remove the battery.
2. Lift the rear-discharge door.
3. Grasp the handle of the mulching insert and fully insert it
into the mower, so that it is securely seated (Fig. 10).
4. To remove the mulching insert, lift the rear-discharge door,
grasp the handle of the mulching insert, and pull it out.
5. Release the discharge door and make sure it rests firmly
against the mulching insert.
NOTICE: The mulching insert must be removed in order to install
and use the grass bag and must be re-installed when the grass bag is removed.
