OK. Here it is April 16Th and I am looking at 2 to 3 inches of snow on the ground! Luckily we have been having a few days here and there of 60's so that has helped. The weekend should be nice again and I have a feeling we will be getting another round of snow next week sometime. We are trying to get some work done on the backyard but it keeps snowing! As it is with most any project, our project of planting grass has taken on a life of its own. First, we are to submit a drawing for approval before we do anything. Second, we have to choose grass and trees that are "approved" by our community. Third, we have to place rock around the perimeter of the house to prevent water drainage into the basement. So, the grass seed we have purchased sits and waits while we plant trees and order matching rock to be dumped at the house. Then Keith will spend 2 or 3 days laying down felt and landscape border and distributing rocks. Then we can plant our grass seed and hope for a lush and beautiful lawn. Whew!
The girls and I are going to drive out to California on Monday and spend about a week out there. I am trying to find a way to buy us some Disneyland passes. Two trips to Disney will pay for them. But mostly we just want to to visit our family and friends. It is 1027 miles and we will do it in two days. Not too much else happening here. Just wishing for a bit warmer weather so we can put away our winter clothes and dust off the bikes.
