Next Door Neighbors by Pat Sandy for August 11, 2023

Time to get one of those new lasers that automatically zap the weeds.

Norm I suggest getting a strong weed killer.

Darn that Canada Thistle.

I did my side garden 3 days ago and “they’re back!”

With the moist climate and high temps and humidity and dew point, they’re thriving at our expense! ☹️☹️☹️

Have you tried covering your lawn in about five inches of pea gravel? Weeds pull right out. Put a weighted rake on a riding mower and a quick spin around the yard pulls all the weeds and levels the gravel nicely. Easy maintenance is important.

And, you can even paint it green!

Lost cause Norm. Beer thirty!

Spring has sprong ……. again!

I’m fighting goat heads. Dang things are everywhere no matter how much I pull or spray.

One year, I thought it would be cool to allow some thistles to grow. About 13 of them. They grew to 6 or 7 feet tall. When I finally pulled them out in autumn – there were many large holes to fill. Never did that again!

Just like the poison ivy in my yard

Remember..there’s hamburger helper AND herbicide helper.

It’s like those horror movies where you think it’s dead and then a hand springs (or sproings) up from the grave.

Yes! All weeds are in the zombie family!

Seems about right!
