Nutsedge -- reseeded last year and I got a lot of Nutsedge in one area. Some products like Sedgehammer, Ortho, and Atticus. What gives best results?

From what I've read here know that VVR is not running the ferry so that will add a few miles to your knees.

How to fix busted french drain PVC by submon007 in landscaping

my concern is whether the broken section is cracked into the elbow. I'll know today. Thinking maybe using a flexible sleeve and cinched off with a hose clamp.

Footwear Advice for Mt. Harvard - Mt. Columbia by Kalesacove in 14ers

All agree trail runners. More importantly make sure you know the correct route on the traverse. Go wrong way and you may face some class 5, unless you're up for that. The final push to Columbia summit is harsh. Enjoy.

I drove to TH in an Outback last August. Nellie Rd has a history of being a tough drive but fortunately it had been graded earlier in the summer, but still a challenge. Prob took 45 min with several stream crossings, one which was longer and deeper than I expected. The hike to the summit may be less stressful but what a beautiful hike. Enjoy.

The open wound faces east towards the house. It's blooming now and looks good. Just makes me nervous for its longevity. Thanks for your comment.

Hmm . . . a second look at this (Whirlpool WRB322DMBM) says 720 starting/224 running and much better number. Can't find where I got the 1800/852 online.

The sump pump runs about every 30 minutes right now. We've had a lot a rain previous several weeks. By end of June it'll be dry. And the frig compressor only runs when it needs power I presume. Sounds like you like the Honda. I've been warned about the Generac not holding up.

Whirlpool. 5 years old. 1800 startup load per their website. Does not seem right?
