Right there with you. Had a pipe burst last winter and if I hadn’t kept extra cash on hand, it would’ve been a nightmare. I get the urge to optimize r...
Fence lines are a headache, no doubt. I had a deal almost fall through last year because the old barbed wire was about two feet off from where the pla...
Never actually seen anyone get the full $25K either, and I’ve been through this process twice now. The first time, I thought I’d hit the jackpot with ...
