I sat by a pool in Zip City over the weekend! A pool house VRBO for Mother’s Day weekend as my mom turned 70 on Saturday. With visits to other family, it was a special and rare five day visit. The pool was chilly but I was determined to get my full rental experience! Lol. Then, Blackberry Winter set in.
My brothers bday is Cinco de Mayo and we take out from El Pollito Loco in Seven Points for the first time. It was excellent. I would definitely recommend it.
As for my summer, I plan to not take for granted that I live near beautiful beaches. Also, I’m going to Vegas for a week during the 4th of July holiday.

If you have Poa Annua good luck in your yard. Heat is about the only thing that works. I do like working outside on the yard and flower beds…therapeutic. We are going to the Ark and Creation Museum. My family loves the pool. I will use it occasionally. I like the longer days, having sun after work. I dislike sleeping in the summer months. I sleep better when the temps are cooler. I will keep up with transfers and summer standouts. Hopefully make it to some UNA summer events. Play tennis with my girls and go watch them play in tournaments.

We're doing a roadtrip out west starting Friday. Planning to hit up several national parks, including Yellowstone, which I've never been to. I'll probably need to take out a second mortgage to pay for the gas though. I'll just put it all on my Discover card (5% back!) and try not to think about it until sometime in June, lol.
After that we have tickets to a couple of Braves games. The drive isn't too bad from Chattanooga and we really enjoy the new stadium.
My 2 year old son wants to stay outside All. The. Time. So I assume I'll be sitting out in the yard with a beer keeping an eye on him quite a bit this summer.

I started using Image herbicide, it has killed my Poa Annual... And it don't drift like 2-4d. It takes care of most broudleaf and grassy weeds...

Well I would if I had more, I only have about 12 ounces left. I am hoping that will get me through this year. I mix about 2 ounces per gallon. I bought my MSMA 6 at Coop in Hartselle with no questions asked either last year or year before? I spray about an acre.

Brandon the better question maybe:
Is anyone not experiencing drought symptoms?
Customer told me today Cherokee Ridge Golf Course near Huntsville/Arab area lost their greens. Completely burnt up. Sad and such a beautiful course, watched David Duvall play in Nike tour there.
Drink water, if you walk by a water fountain make sure to get a sip. Hydration is key this time of year. Welcome to the first day of summer…well by actual date anyways.
