Knowing what to do when you see a tornado, or when you hear a tornado warning, can help protect you and your family. During a tornado, people face hazards from extremely high winds and risk being struck by flying and falling objects. After a tornado, the wreckage left behind poses additional injury risks. Although nothing can be done to prevent tornadoes, there are actions you can take for your health and safety.

I know we’re all dying to get out into our yards and gardens and get our hands dirty. I can’t stand looking at my pitiful looking ponytail palm or my sad hibiscus another day. But before we clip, trim, crop, design, or plant let’s remember what they say about March, in like a lion. It probably hasn’t roared yet.
So here are some things you can do to prep your patio and deck before you can get to the fun stuff. Your deck probably looks like mine; it needs staining or at least some touch up. The Home Depot has any kind of stain you need and lots of information on which to choose. We also have the brushes, tarps, sprayers and other accessories you’ll need to get the job done. I bought a brush that was about the same width as my deck boards so it saved me some time.

In the world of advertising, it’s often easy to wage “Turf Wars”. But often times they don’t always give you the facts. Sometimes these ads compare apples to oranges and don’t always give you a real comparison. For instance, there seems to be some “chatter” out there that Sears has better lawn mowers and better prices. That’s simply not true.
The Home Depot carries today’s top-rated mower. Period.
In fact, The Home Depot carries 4 of the top 5 rated mowers on the market today according to a leading consumer-testing agency’s website and magazine.
Another fact?
The Home Depot has the best prices. Guaranteed.
I know, so you’re reading this and thinking, “How do I know what is true and what is marketing jumble?”
