To all my gardening friends be carful out there in the hot sun this summer. The heat is a killer. My potassium runs a little low. I’m a big guy and I swet like one. Today clearing the cogongrass I got hotter then I thought and didn’t drink enough. Started getting horrible cramps all over my body all at the same time. Amy my girlfriend got me Gatorade 3 potassium pills 1 magnesium pill and a banana the craps are easing up. So be careful out drink lots of water and if you swet like me keep potassium pills and Gatorade or bananas on hand.
