Shit, thats like the stinging nettle we have here. you brush bare skin against it, and in a few minutes, it feels like the area is on fire, with hundreds of needles poking... lasts for about a half hour, then goes away(unless you're allergic)...

Vinegar helps neutralize the stinging-And I HATE DEER/HORSE FLIES!!!

Of all bugs, I hate the most, Gnats/Fruit Flys. I hate when they go straight for your eyes, and when they get in, there's no getting them out. I hate the burning they cause, and when you can feel them still alive, crawling around in there!!! Really Mad

these things are very handy to have. they cut down everything up to about 1/2" thick. goes through nettles, poison ivy, thistles, burs, saplings, and grass like nothing. i think its just called a weed cutter. swing it like a golf club.

i hate running out of dirt, wood, and area. living in flat country isn't always the greatest to biuld trails, especially when you can only biuld them in your backyard. hopefully me and a buddy will build a kickass trail at the farm.
