Before and After

We've been working hard out in our yard to build a lawn from scratch. We've searched the world wide web for tips, listened to tribal knowledge from the folks down at OK Hatchery and Feed, and office chatter at the water cooler. We still have no idea what we're doing, but our yard is looking pretty good for one season's growth. Here are a couple of before and after shots. The after shots were taken soon after a short mow (don't know if we mentioned that before, but we're now the proud owners and users of a beautiful Toro 3-in-1 mower. Thrilling I know.)

You might notice a lane of dirt on the side left side of the after picture; that's where we planted our sweet corn. It was painful to dig up anything green, but we're excited about the prospect of munching some delicious corn in about 65 days.
