    Default Yard after a day of rain. Let's see yours.

    Not much growing yet, but it seems nature is getting ready to burst forth in all her glory. It rained all day yesterday and everything look fresh.

    A lot of the grass in both of our yards is still brown and it'll still be that way until at least May. Sadly, there's still forecasts of snow for us this week and that's impeding the grass growth.

    I can't wait to get some real grass growth in our yards.

    What a beautiful yard and garden you have! My yard was so swampy from all the melting snow, it's looking better today!

    WOW! Is all that your land? I see houses behind a fence backing onto what appears to be a large land area.

    Lots of garden! I'm envious of your gardens. I wish mine would grow..lol.

    Trying heirloom seeds this year.

    Garden is vegetables, several types of berries and fruit trees and Flowers. Moved in the Fall of 2003 and the backyard was a soggy mess, completely covered with grass. All improvements have been accomplished by myself by hand labour.

    Mine is water logged. Our rain guage showed 3.8 inches of rain after that last storm. Actually the trees are loving it, but the garden is mud.
    Pine trees, with their needles pointing up to heaven, represent everlasting light and life.
