    Landscaping rock

    Be sure to put down landscaping fabric. The crummy plastic stuff will tear and poke up. Also, make 100% sure it's what you want because tearing out landscaping rock is just awful...

    Anybody sick of hearing...

    Wow- we got some fun haters in the house. Who cares what someone does or doesn't do at their wedding reception?? It's their reception, they should be able to personalize it however they want. The weddings I've been to with Cy, fight song, corny dances--everyone seemed to be having a blast.

    Millipedes?

    Anything with 6+ legs that moves fast is not welcome in my residence. I don't care how beneficial it is.

    Nasty rumor about ames dining

    El Azteca out on Dayton (by the hotels) has great service and great food. Cazador is good, but it can be hit or miss on the service there. Neither has the Mahi Mahi tacos I was getting at O'Malleys though :sad:

    Planting trees

    I remember in one of my hort classes at ISU they would put pics of the "volcano" mulch pile around ISU trees as an example of what not to do. Hole size is right on though. They also were not a fan of fertilizer tree spikes.

    Any updates on Ames Flooding?

    ITA. I will be so sad if they close for good. Their Mahi Mahi tacos and fajitas are awesome. They should move to West Ames- by that new hotel they are building ...and closer to my residence:yes:

    Flooding in Cyclone Country

    The stadium area was dry as a bone when I went by an hour ago. The flooding was still confined to across the road in the softball fields. Up by the rec and cyride it's a total mess though.
