While at your mom's I'd seriously consider making yourself a couple of voodoo dolls. Why not?

Their are many forms of 2-4-d,,,and lots of kissing cousins.
Any way to KNOW what they used?
The fumes usually diminish to zero once the liquid drys on the plants and soil.
Almost EVERY body uses it at one time or the other during the year,,,so it is HARD to avoid completely.
If you see any wilty broad leaf weeds as well as dandelions or a dandy free lawn,,,its why.
IF they sprayed over on your lawn or used an illegal dose etc,,,thats another whole story
Was the wind blowing your way when the spray was applied???

I was typing and it disapeared.
Don, it was the kind that they screw on the end of a garden hose and it mixes it and sprays it I would have to read the label. I thought it was all the same.
I am leaving for the day to fish then going to moms,for the night.
The wind did not blow it on me ,but the wind is to change to the bad direction this morning.
It is blowing the fumes on me now I was just out there.EEK!

Wish your neighbors would move...I will pray for that since they don't seem to be "team players".
What a total bummer.

I found this beautiful prayer on ibelieve.com:
My Prayer for You
This is my prayer for you: smiles when sadness intrudes,
laughter to kiss your lips, hugs when spirits sag,
friendships to brighten your being, confidence for when you doubt,
courage to know yourself, comfort on difficult days,
rainbows to follow the clouds, sunsets to warm your heart,
beauty for your eyes to see, faith so that you can believe,
patience to accept the truth, love to complete our life.

Probably too late for this year altho could still try.
Plant a few tomatoes and some Rose bushes on that side of the house.
Not right on the lot line cause that looks too obvious.
Six, eight, ten feet away somewhere they look and function like next to your house as a border.
They spray next time you WILL lose your Roses and tomatoes,,,you already knew that in your mind,,,your prepared for it.
YOU call the EPA,,not the national, but the local spray police. You can find the reporting number.
"THEY" make your neighbor VERY uncomfy in their investigation and dealings. They are serious dudes and dudettes.
If they just slap their hands either of two things happen. They QUIT spraying anywhere close to you OR they spray with same result....Revisit from spray police is NOT nice.
They will quit when they get socked with a huge fine and other sanctions.
Neighbor did that to somebody that sprayed 1/4 mile away and said it dinged his apple trees,,,,it was pretty tense for awhile.
They take these VERY serious and investigate all reported cases. let them run with the ball.
But proving damages with an allergy doesnt work so you NEED visual evidence and roses and tomatoes show it first,,,and easy to walk a few feet.

Forget the tomatoes and roses. Plant some big, ugly man eating plants. I'm sure they must have something like that some where!
Just kidding of course, and Just Don is right. Great idea!
Just checking on you today to see how you are doing.
Lettuce no!

Hi Gang I was gone all day I watched the wind direction and was able to come home tonight.
I bobbed around on Houston woods state park lake,soaking night crawlers and bass minnows.
I got roasted by the sun I look like chief MADDOG.
I watched the neighbor on the security system he burned crap all day.
EPA won't do anything in Preble County.
Don that is a great idea THANKS
I hope the redneck reputation of this county doesen't stop it.
TC Good pun!!!!!
Some day I will make a web sight telling all the terrible truth about Lakengren ,how the deed restrictions have been violated ,and this county will not do anything because they make booko bucks from taxes. and put NOTHING back into here due to it is A private POA.
I need to sell out first!!!!!!!

Hi <<<<< Maddog >>>>>,
Glad to hear, you are weathering this mess,Okay.
TxCoord,and I continue,in prayer for your health and for the situation to be resolved.
It sounds like you could write an excellent book about the mess in your area,and all of it,every word true.
We feel that way about the VA mess in the US, so much graft,and mess,so much lying.
Please take care of you, and stay as safe as possible. Glad you could get in some fishing and relaxing.
