Raining death from the sky

So this afternoon, after my family left following our Father's Day celebration, I scatted Sluggo among the irises and hostas and in the pansy pots, as those have suffered the most slug damage. I also took a spray bottle of Roundup and sprayed weeds and grass that were coming up through cracks in the deck, sidewalk, and driveway, and also sprayed a local weed that I think we call sand rushes (although I don't find that name online to verify it) that grows in the sandy ground in the beds at the northwest corner of our house, and that cannot be eradicated by pulling or digging, because they just break off and grow back.

Better living through chemicals.
