FYI on pine straw amounts in the ST

[Jeffrey Travis]

Pine straw seems to be one of the coverings of choice in GA so in prepping to sell the house we needed to put a little down around the house.



Went to Home Depot, took a guess we needed 20 bales and hoped they would fit in the ST.



Loaded up 14 'standing' (could go w/tie downs) and then put 6 on top of those, laying down, strapped them down with bungee cords and we were good to go.



Definitely could have put about another 4 in just on the second level.



Third level, I will leave that up to someone else.

p.s. Anyone want to come and spread it around for me. Would hate to have to hire some illegals.

JT..hire the illegals, then when they finnish, call INS to give them a free bus ride home...

 

[Erik Larson]

there are illegals in GA?

 

[Thomas Rogers]

Erik, sure there are...wouldn't you expect that?



There are illegals all over the East coast and Northeast.

 

[Thomas Rogers]

Okay, I will bite...what is "Pine Straw" and what are you covering with it (your lawn)?

 

[Fred]

TJR, It's big old pine needles that people use like mulch.

 

[Thomas Rogers]

Gotcha...makes sense now. Thanks Fred.



I think it was JT's mention of applying to different "levels" that threw me.



Around me we use mulch for mulch, but we are strange like that.



I "spread around" 11 yards a few weekends ago.
