Are you allowed to eat potassium chloride? It contains no sodium, and tastes almost identical to salt. [link=(https://www.amazon.com/Sodium-Free-Substitute-Potassium-Alternative-Seasoning/dp/B07MVJTL81)]Nu-Salt[/link]...

What kind of grass is this?

Posted by Gauge on 8/3/23 at 11:53 am
This grass was installed as sod one year ago. The grass is supposed to be Palisades Zoysia (that's what we told the landscape company to install, and that is what they told us they installed), but there are a couple of reasons that I am thinking it could be something else. [img]https://i.ibb...

It sounds like a Sonos system could be perfect for what you are wanting to do (except for keeping your existing receiver). If you want to do three zones and keep your existing wired speakers, you would need to buy three Sonos Amps (one Amp for each zone). Each Sonos Amp currently costs $699. This wo...

Make sure that you consider how much it will cost in electricity to run the fountain. I did some calculations a few years ago, and if I remember correctly a 3 horse power lake fountain would cost about $4,000 per year in electricity if run for around 20 hours per day. They also break down a lo...

I have these and like them, but I have at least one spider on the top of the handle (right where you grab it) just about every time I check them. The spiders get on there to keep from drowning in the skimmer. If you just kind of quickly flick the handle it's pretty easy to knock them off so you ca...

Just because they said they eliminated a route because of "navigational issues," doesn't mean they were correct. See the bridge location that I have added in red to the image below. This potential crossing location was removed from consideration because the entire width of the river in this loca...
Although all 10 of the current bridge locations are pretty bad (there are better options that would also have less of an impact on river navigation as these 10 options), the four crossings south of Bayou Paul road and just north of St. Gabriel (on the east side) and just south of Plaquemine (on the ...
Locating the bridge at Bluebonnet would gridlock traffic not just on Bluebonnet, but in all of south Baton Rouge. I realize this is a regional project and not just a Baton Rouge project, but improving traffic in Baton Rouge is in fact one of the goals of this bridge. Locating the bridge at Bluebon...
