    Mattress

    If your a huskier build, I don't recommend any of the foam mattresses. They end up soft real fast. Buy firmer than you think you need, you can always make a firm mattress softer by adding a topper.

    We have friends who moved to Panama 5 years ago and haven't looked back. They bought in the Bocas del Toro area. I could go for it, but the wife wouldn't move there because of the snakes.

    Careful spraying along the brush as any drift will kill the brush too. It is a class 4 herbicide and a little harder to buy.

    Farmer talk

    What is the mayweed in? It has a good root network, so pulling has limited results unless you can get deep enough. I usually treat small areas in grass several times with roundup, then reseed. A strong lawn will choke it out. I pull all the individual shoots up out of the grass, clump them...

    Farmer talk

    Grazon will work, but it is hard to get unless you know someone who farms and quite expensive.Grazon is good if you have woody growth. Depending on type of weeds you are trying to control there may be cheaper options that are just as effective.

    Nascar

    The course could have been laid out way better. Too narrow to pass and unforgiving in the wet conditions. Pit lane entry seemed like an after thought. It was interesting at the end to see a new driver in Nascar get more out of the new car than some very good road course drivers.

    Insurance new driver in the family have questions !

    This is what we did for our kids. Sad part is the 05 Sunfire 4dr wasn't as safe to drive as our newer vehicles. Boy got several tickets and his rate went up but ours didn't. They are both over 25 now and rates are reasonable.

    Barbecue Season(Show me your Supper)

    I like mine. You shouldn't get hot enough to worry about the plastic. I did steaks to 135F in sous vide(90 min), then a quick sear on the BBQ. I can cook steaks to medium and my wife likes it as there is no blood on the plate. Normally she is a well done person. Longest sous vide Ive done is 24...
