Roundup

My father loves Roundup.  A gift of Roundup makes him ever so happy.  While my father's love of Roundup is a result of his desire to keep our gardens free of weeds, this article (WSJ: Superweed Outbreak Triggers Arms Race) focuses on large farm usage of herbicides and discuses yet another challenge in operating a successful single-family farm.  Modern farming is very expensive and quite risky!

The first season of daffodils in the new raised beds outside our kitchen window.

Amazing how plants and animals adapt to deal with whatever humans throw at them.  Science!
