The Backyard Redo



Let's just say that Mark and I are very ambitious when it comes to home improvement jobs. We love diggin' in deep and don't mind gettin' dirty. We especially love jobs we can do to save money. Our latest is the backyard. After a harsh winter (two winters ago) our grass never quite recovered, so we decided to redo it ourselves. Mark has single handedly prepared the land for sod, starting with getting rid of the old grass and grading it. Mind you...he did not use any mechanical tools...only the tools the Good Lord gave him...his hands (and a pick ax). We are getting there and hope to finish by mid-April (just in time for a new baby). Keep ya posted on the progress.
