KARE 11 news ran a spot on July 10th that should be a warning to anyone thinking about using weed killer to make their lawn better. You can find the video and article on the station's website: Backyard fundraiser canceled after lawn mistakenly killed.
The fundraiser was an annual event the family used to raise funds for the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation, but after Mr. Olson purchased several bottles of what he thought was weed killer to help get the lawn ready for the event. Instead, the bottles were a combination killer for weeds and grass. One that left the lawn unable to grow grass, via either reseeding or sodding, for six months.

NOTICE: I love trying to make this a good travel journal and while I know I fall short of my dream, I also spend a LOT of time pondering and rereading comments to see if I should post or delete as robot SPAM. So... a few rules on the comments.
I want anyone, not only Blogger members or Open ID members to be able to comment, however... Please sign your comment, if you do not it will not be published. Anonymous comments help no one and are unreliable.
Also, if you have a strong enough opinion to post a comment, please take time and make it informative - if you had a good time somewhere detail what you mean, don't just say "This place was great!!! Loved the buffet!", and if you had a lousy time please detail it, don't just say "This place sucked and the pool smelled! Ruined my vacation!" I want to feel as if you really were there when I read your comments.
If you have a website or blog where you detailed your experience it is even better, include a link to your website or blog - just make sure it is not to a SPAM site made to endorse/defame a location, because I will delete any that do not strike me as being legitimate personal sites.
Thank you for your help in making it easier for me to know what is robotic SPAM and what are real personal reviews.
