Uhhhhh....before the levees were constructed, and before the newer, higher levees were constructed after the original ones failed, there is no way to determine how high the water would have risen within levees like exist today. We know that one of these big floods occurred before the levees were co...

Those photos of the deer are amazing! I really get a knot in my throat when I think of the fate that awaits some of those animals. How humane is a hunter's bullet, in comparison. was thinking the same thing....gator try to remember this "flood" isnt natural, what these animals are experie...

UH...

Food stamps. Public education. Nonearned income tax credit. Health care. Black (not American, ie. Equalality) History Month. Affirmative action hiring. Federal and State governments entirely.

Looks great. You can just hack a ring around the existing trees.
And if you have some chemical (garlon,grazon, 24d non ester, ) squirt it in the hack mark.

Are you guys using 2,4-d on centipede? Many sources say not to, but some of the commercial types labeled for centipede lawns( which I've had success with on my centipede) contain it. According to table 1 http://msucares.com/lawn/lawn/weeds.html it is OK to use 24D on centipede.\ 2,4-D 2,4-D + 2,4-D...
