    Palm Tree & Termites

    Brokenwave - I did see the coconut palm thread. Coconot palms are quite tropical and belong 200 miles south of us. The Mexican fan palm is accustomed to our heat and arid conditions. Salt - may be a different story.

    Palm Tree & Termites

    Brokenwave - thanks for the reply. Ouch, $550 seems a bit extreme. I was expecting $200 tops. Mondone also sent me a recommendation, I guess I'll call them both. I've just got to get rid of those little pests before I have major problems.

    Palm Tree & Termites

    Can anyone help me out with a place to get a 6 to 8 foot tall Mexican fan palm and have it installed? I talked to a guy in Playa Encanto that just had a ton of nice palms planted, but I'm hoping to get one this coming Saturday. Also, I've got termites. Any recommendations for an exterminator...

    Saltillo Tile

    Was planning in re-doing our floors next weekend. After buying a bunch of product and looking at "how to" on the internet, my eyes are rolling back in my head. Stripping seems to be the biggest pain or mess. Do you know anyone who will do this at a reasonable rate? Any advice is appreciated.

    Info on Texas gulf fishing

    Also, need some forum help - after coming from south Texas, I finally had the opportunity to go kayak fishing last weekend. Got, what I think were a couple of small Pintos. It's always nice to have a fish on your line, but I was thinking that I would sure like something to hit nd pull some...

    Info on Texas gulf fishing

    Some of the inshore fishing in the intercoastal is fantastic. Redfish, speckled trout, flounder and black drum are fairly abundant in the 1 - 5 pound range, with some going 10+. There are literally hundreds of miles of inshore fishing in and around Corpus Christi. You can wade fish, kayak...

    Garage Door

    I am bringing down a garage door and need it installed in a high-lift mode - i.e. door opens mostly vertically with very little horizontal role. I looked at a "how to" video, and it is beyond my pay rate. Does anyone know of a good garage door installer in Rocky Point and could you share with...

    Garage Door

    I am bringing down a garage door, but want to have it installed in a high-lift style - i.e. opens more up the wall and less horizontally. I just watched a video on how to do it, and it is way above my pay grade. Is there a good garage door person in Rocky Point that you could recommend?

    King Bed + Mattress: Buy or Bring???

    + 2 on Muebles. We just bought a mattress from them, and I sleep so well down there. Not quite sure if it is the mattress or lack of state-side stress.

    So, I caught my first couple of fish in the estuary behind our house. Not sure what they were. Believe one to be a corvine. Other than Mexifish, where can I get good photos of area fish?

    Outdoor Lighting

    Lights are under overhangs, all have the tops sealed, and ceramic only allows limited light out. Enjoy your stars. Did I hear the fairly high end furniture store across from Sams Club is now a grocery store? I was going to get a couple of chairs from them.

    Outdoor Lighting

    The home we recently purchased was suffering from salt wrought on all outdoor lights. Having lived on the coast before, I new a quality ceramic light was the answer. I was about to order from some out-of-state company on lights made overseas, when I stumbled onto Luxury Lighting in Phoenix...

    October RZR Ride

    Being new to Rocky Point, I don't know many of the trails. I plan on taking the RZR down starting in October. Looking for folks too ride with. My wife and I have a place in Playa Encanto, actually Playa La Jolla. Is El Gulfo and back a reality for a day trip?
