Seriously, you mow them down.  That's kind of funny.  Don't the stalks get really big - unless yo have a really big mower.

@chickenbutt - it's going into the 90s here for several days - really wish it would not get so hot so quickly - give me a few more weeks of 70-80 degrees please!

Sure. Here's how to add an image from a desk/laptop computer. It's not the same if you have a mobile device.

1) Open a new post.

2) Place your cursor where you want the image to appear in the post.

3) Click on the Insert/Edit image button (the mountain range). An Add Image box will pop up.

4) Click Choose File. A box will pop up. It's a Windows Explorer box in Microsoft, I don't know what in Mac.

5) Navigate to the image file on your computer and upload. On a Windows computer, you select the file and click Open. I don't know how to do it with a Mac. The new Explorer window will close and leave you with the Add Image window.

6) Scroll down to preview the image. If you are happy with it, go to the next step. (If it's sideways or upside down, you will have to edit the file in your own image viewer, and I can't give directions for all those options here.)

7) Click the red INSERT IMAGE button. The image will appear in your post.

To add more images, repeat steps 2-7.

Did you just spoil it for me?

Do you have your pictures stored in a file or central location on the tablet? If so than you can use the third icon over on the right and post the pictures that way.

You can also just do a c&p. 

But my biggest piece of advice for posting pics here is to be sure to size it down.  Otherwise, they will smoosh it in, vertically, to make it fit the page.  Used to be pics that were too large would make the page too wide and ruin it for the thread, as you would have to scroll out to the right to read posts.  But now they have it set to where pics that are too large get narrowed down so they don't look right.

If you are using the tool here (that pic that looks like mountains with the sun over the right side), you can size a pic down in the course of doing that.  You'll see the field where you choose a size.

Thank you @chickenbutt

You explain information clearly.

Today has been a very busy day for my family; my Mom is healing well after having a skin cancer removed, my husbands trip to the VA went well, my dental checkup was good, and trucker daughter is on her way home for the weekend!
