Seems it was the time for rain. I'm so glad.
I'm going to try to seed all of my front and parts of my back yard this fall to see if some the grass will come up next spring. I'm going to be careful where I seed tho because I;'ve decided to do some xeriscaping in the back. Since there will be tiny kids playing back there for a few years, I am researching the kinds of mulches to use.
