We went grocery shopping yesterday and while we were there we got a wasp/hornet trap to *hopefully* reduce the amount of them that greet us whenever we go into one of our 2 sheds. Today is the 2nd day, so far, as you can see, they *haven't* been trapped. Anybody know how long it takes them to find something like this?

The last couple of days I have mentioned that I was outside pulling/plucking/whatever you call it Poplar shoots that have been coming up all over the yard. See, we cut down 3 adult Poplars last Fall but they don't want to stop repopulating, so they send out these shoots that pop-up from the roots they've sent out previously.

We *finally* got the above ground pool's water clear and the algae that was floating around mostly out. However, there as been a LOT of it on the floor/bottom of the pool for so long that it's coated the bottom. Unfortunately even vacuuming didn't help. We added 2 gallons of white vinegar last evening, but so far there doesn't *appear* to be any change. I'm thinking we probably need to add a butt load of algaecide in an attempt to kill it. If that doesn't help de-slick the bottom, then we'll need to buy another scrub brush that attached to the skimmer pole and scrub the shit out of it.

Lastly, this month is the third month since replacing the "old" water filter in the pumphouse with a new one. Was going to replace it with another new one today, but it doesn't look all that dirty to me, so I didn't. Maybe after 3 more months? We shall see.
