Yardwork

When we were finishing the house in November, the landscapers put our allotted amount of sod in the back yard.  It didn't quite finish the whole back yard; there was about 10 feet all the way across the back that didn't have sod.  Instead of paying more at the time, we just decided we'd finish it ourselves in the spring.  So here we are... finishing it up!  In hindsight, we should have just paid to have them do it.  It has been tons of work!  The fence line is just a mess and we've been raking, mowing, pulling weeds/roots, etc. to prepare for the sod.  Dustin helped by bringing over the Bobcat earlier this week and clearing out a lot of it.  Thanks Dustin!  The sod will be delivered on Monday, so hopefully we'll get it all laid that night.  10 feet doesn't sound like much, but our lot is pie shaped, so the back fence line is about 320 feet long, which will take 6 pallets of sod.  We'll see if our aging bodies can still handle that much work. 

Here we are prepping for the sod to come...
