That's how Spectrum burried my internet RG6 cable. They used a vibrating thingy that sunk it about 6 inches into the ground and left no mess. It took about 10 minutes to bury 150 ft of cable. I think there's a direct bury Cat 5 available also.

I made front and rear 2 inch receiver hitches for mine. Depending on which end needs weight I took a ball mount and welded a 2 ft 1 inch steel rod into the ball hole that sticks up. Then I bought 12-25 pound steel weights with 1 inch holes that I drop over the rod allowing me to adjust the...

I made snacks from them for a while. They were pretty good. Tried freezing noodles but that didn't end well.

We used to put atleast 4 a day in the mailbox for our last postal delivery lady. Everyone at the post office shared them. Then we got a guy that would stuff the mail in around them so we stopped. I keep praying for squash bugs 🪳😉.

Corn and the 45 pounds of Yukon gold potatoes I dug today Almost forgot the 4 zucchinis a day that won't stop.
