Time to get out the lawnmower?
« on: March 10, 2012, 11:16:01 am »
In the region of the country that I live, I usually don't consider mowing my lawn before the end of April, or early May.

As of right now, it is tall enough, and green enough that it needs cut. Lol!

It has been a crazy winter.

I was just looking at the green over the septic system, been thinking it won't be long.  I last cut in late December, crazy for NW Indiana...

Snow was melting and turning into muddy slop at work over the last couple days.  This morning it was snowing again....only to melt this afternoon and turn into more slop. :-\

A bit of time before we see green grass and and blossoms around here.

I think we had all of 2 inches of snow in central Pennsylvania this winter.

Snowed on and off for a couple days and now it's back to -20.  I think winter is here.
