I think Ford put the Griffon engine in the Boss and the Merlin in Cobra's. Must explain why I can hit 440 mph. (or am I confusing that with 440 hp?)

Its bamboo time again! I decided to take one more round of pics before I mowed, and seeing them side by side is almost comical.

Keep in mind that this series of pics were taken in the span of one week. Yes, I said ONE week, Friday to the next Friday.

4/13/2012



4/20/2012



4/13/2012



4/20/2012




And finally my favorite one (it was close to the patch so I left it to see what it does)

4/13/2012




4/20/2012 It's 6 feet tall now!!!





This may be the last time they sprout, but I wouldn't rule out one more round of them, then they'll be done until next spring.

Nothing that I know of. Just for decoration, they kind of fill in that corner of the back yard. They've been there for years, just kept them contained to one patch.

That's them down at the far end, the dark green in the middle of the pic.

Comanches did it to baby's heads. If memory serves right from my Texas History in college there was a town a couple of hours from here named Baby's Head up until someone figured out what it meant and maybe it should be changed.
