Kilz, put a coat or 2 of that on it and then paint with the white paint you are using.
Saw this and thought it was interesting. Take it for what it's worth but same situation with different outcomes. (Same corner)

I didn't realize how late the practice/qualifying/race is scheduled to be until I looked it up. I guess that's one way to beat the desert heat

Not sure if you are going to have family with you, but my kids (10 / 11 at the time) had a lot of fun at Parrot Mountain and Gardens. Not a huge place but a lot of birds to look at/feed/hold/buy if you want.

I wouldn't put this on the top 5 list but if you have an afternoon, it's worth a look.

As most have already said, no need to have a car on the island. Rent a bike for a few days, quick to get around and no issues with parking. Plenty of bike rental places that will deliver and pick up at the end of the rental.

I'm glad you asked the question. I'm looking for the same thing with my family of 4 (2 pre teens). Finest Playa Mujeres looks really nice, thanks for that tip. And the price is much better than most I have seen.
that was a pleasant surprise yesterday when I turned on my HULU. And no additional charge for it....... for now at least.

Wife and I stayed a week this past Sept. We stayed in a VRBO 2 blocks of Duval St. Great central location. Rent some bikes and don't worry about a car if you plan on staying on Key West the whole time. Make a reservation at Latitudes, check out the Hemingway House, book the day trip to Dry Tortugas, and have fun drinking and eating all day. We liked the Cuban coffee a lot at Cuban Coffee Queen and a good breakfast spot that we went to 2xs was Moondog Cafe.

Good buy. Looks like it's hit a new 52 week high today. Hard to buy in at that level but will put it on my watchlist since the trend is beautiful.
Honeymooned on Santorini for 10 days. Best 10 days of my life. Stayed in Oia and traveled around the island on a 4-wheeler that was street legal. This was a little over 10y years ago, so not sure how much has changed. If I was going to do it all over again, I think I would have made it an even 2 weeks. Spend 4-5 days on 3 different islands. I heard from the other people vacationing at the time that Mikonos was very much worth the stop.

What kind of time frame are you looking at having it? How long are you going to stay in the rental?

My family is going to Breck in mid March and we have an extra day in Denver to burn. 4 adults and 2 pre-teen kids. Anyone have recs on where to stay in Denver and what to do for the day/night?

I have heard the same. Waste of money. The thought is that instead of taking out a plug it's just compressing the ground around each tiny hole that is made.
I'm out in Houston and follow Randy Lemmon's schedule. I had the same problem about 3 weeks ago. Followed this schedule and my grass is looking much better.

Day 1:
Granular bifenthrin (I prefer Bug Out, because it’s the strongest.)
Liquid bifenthrin (Which, applied after the granular product, helps water it in)

Day 3:
Liquid bT (Organic Caterpillar & Webworm Control)

Day 7:
Liquid bifenthrin

Day 10:
Liquid bT

Day 13 or 14:
Liquid bifenthrin

Trimmer Line

Check out this guys video. I recently switched to the one he suggested and it did make a big difference with the line getting wielded together in the trimmer head. Less stretch is key.

Same. The first season was pretty good. Developed the story and was interesting. I just finished the 2nd season and I didn't enjoy it as much. It seemed fast and slow all at the same time if that makes any sense. They moved from one impossible situation to another in each episode but the character development and relationships seemed slow.

Now with all that being said, I will watch Season 3. My 11 yr old son is totally into it.
I can't get the disney+ page to load to enroll. I guess it's swamped.

Found out today that if you have specific Verizon unlimited plans, you can get Disney+ for free for one year. Then $7 a month after that.
I live in the area but haven't been there yet. I'll give it a shot. Typically we go to Swinging Door down in Richmond. The food is good and I just like the atmosphere of the place to be honest.

Family has a few of these hanging around the house. I'm not sure the trap will get all of the bees, but after the summer is over there are about 10 or so bees each trap. Carpenter Bee Trap
I have been looking at this recently too. Actually right now they have the same deal running, but you only have to prepay for 3 months instead of 4.

I called and they said that you have to prepay for whatever package you want to have, so if you want the $60 package you will have to prepay for that for 3 months. You can't choose the $35 package and then change 1 month in.

I signed up for the 7 day trail and I like it. It will be 100% better when the DVR feature is released to everyone. I watch about 90% of my shows after they air so that is the one think that has been keeping me from pulling the trigger sooner. According to different sites, the DVR will be available in the next few months.
