“Pickled” Weeds

Family

ngredients:
1 Driveway full of weeds, preferably young and tender
1 Gallon White Vinegar
1 Squirt Dish Detergent
1 Sunny Day
Mix the vinegar and detergent in a spray canister. Use to spray on the leaves of the weeds in the driveway (or mulch bed, or in between stones in the sidewalk). Then wait patiently for the vinegar to “pickle” (or kill) the weeds. May repeat once or twice at weekly intervals if necessary. Also useful for killing the green algae that grows in shady areas on the deck and north wall of the house. (Wish we’d known about this back in the Woodlawn days when we regularly rented a pressure washer to clean the brick sidewalk out front.) it’s effective, inexpensive, easy, and environmentally friendly!

Cape Town: African Wildlife Adventures

With a UNESCO World Heritage Site, two national parks, dozens of museums, and hundreds of tours offered in the Cape Town area there is more than plenty to do. For our two day visit we opted to concentrate on African wildlife visiting the Aquila Private Game Reserve and the Boulders Beach Penguin Colony for a wonderful chance to these fabulous animals in their own habitat.
