What have I Been Up To

lawn as it was last summer day after closing - wild!

This image is of our backyard late last summer when we first got the house. In the last month, if you have noticed that I haven't been commenting back or visiting your blogs it is because I have been trying to reclaim our acres from the wild - It is amazing how much work it takes turning brush and untamed wilderness back into lawn. We have been discovering all sorts of garbage in the weeds and snakes under it - but it is finally starting to look a little less like a deserted lot. It is actually starting to look a bit fabulous - of course most of that is the help of the seasons - everything is starting to get more lush and green.
