Oh yes, I very well know and understand how important trees are. Their shade is far more cooling and refreshing than the shade, say, of a barn or other man made structure. When I made the offer on this place, the double wide was ringed with oak trees, a shady oasis. Before we closed, they were...

I’m getting a new AC installed now!

Getting new AC unit, inside and outside Friday or Monday. No parts for old one, compressor is dead plus uses the old Freon. A neighbor brought over a small window AC, it’s in the living room, I’ve been sleeping on the queen sleeper sofa.
