You know you live in the country if you have named the bears that visit every day.

I'm expecting the bears to arrive any day now.
The front and back yards are quickly filling up with acorns - it's that time of year!
...... in fact, I just got a hardhat to be able to do yard work without getting a concussion!

Good thing you don't have an avocado farm! https://goo.gl/1U92jS

It seems as though they're throwing them at me from the Oak Tree above my Pool and Spa

You read the last comment and the first thing you think of is the pond, just past your property line,
and the watering trough in your front yard that you use to sit in to cool off, on these hot 'Indian Summer' days!
Damn!...no bats around this year and the skeeters are bad.
next year; if the little vampires are this bad?..
...I'm getting a commercial fogger and filling it with DDT

WHEN THERES COW SHIT ALL UP THE ROAD.
When crossing the stream you know the fixed stones. Can make a mental map of your backyard forest with known individual trees. Your dogs don't have a stupid stare like their urban counterparts. You wear a hat. An ultrasharp pocket knife is your eleventh finger. You eat every piece of fruit right in its peak moment. You never get sick, but when you do, you're this close to death.

brother, get with PBW, he needs somea dem..
Speaking of bugs, here’s a story. One summer I spent a few weeks in the mountains of Vermont for some training. We were staying with a chap that had a cabin in the woods. The bugs were horrendous and he said they always were that time of year.
One day he comes home carrying this box. It was a big bug light, a zapper. We laughed and said what do you think that's going to do. He replied the longer it is used it will eventually eliminate the bugs, reducing the population long term because not only does it kill them off immediately it reduces the breeding population.
He was so proud and eager to get this thing working he went right out and hung it. Immediately there was a “zziet” followed by another and another. The progression got faster and faster. We had dinner and a few drinks and went to bed.
It was usually very quiet at night there other than the usual woods’ sounds. I remember lying in bed that night hearing this constant buzz, it sounded like a very loud hum of an electrical transformer.
The next morning we went out to check the bug light and I swear there was over a foot of fried bug carcasses on the ground beneath it. We laughed and laughed and gave the guy so much sh*t, telling him at least it’s a start.

bug lights don't bother skeeters...they like that CO2 your're pumping out 
This is true but it was hilarious. Unfortunately he was frying a lot of harmless moths and midgets that provide food for other creatures. I have lots of bats and barn swallows but the skeeter population has been down because it’s been so dry.bug lights don't bother skeeters...they like that CO2 your're pumping out
In years past...twilight..when the street lights come on...the bats would swam over the house. Very few skeeters.
I hope bats come back. Lots of caves, nearby.

You can have a Lazy Boy, outdoors.
I'm thinking about buying a purple lazy boy as a lawn chair for a friend with a hernia. So they can visit and clean bud.
But I'm not sure if I want to be responsible for a purple lazy boy for the next 20 years of my life.
Maybe I'll offer a bit less

For the outdoors..

I have some Zero Gravity Reclining chairs for the outside. They're great and allow you to look up and see the stars in the desert. About $50-60
