Grass update
My dad has been pestering me for this for a while, so after mowing and weeding for several hours this afternoon, I finally got around to snapping some photos of the lawn which are up to date. Above is a view from the back, which as you can see is not as full as the front, and has areas with weed problems.
below are some of the better spots
Unfortunately, not everything has come up this good. There are some areas where I am having troubles getting the grass to really take

work day
The weather has been rainy for the whole week, and today was the first warm and sunny day that we've had. So today I spread some fertilizer on the yard, pulled up the last on the burlap and ran the roller over the whole yard one last time. Below are some before and after pictures for your viewing pleasure.

growing grass
I had intended to chronicle all the effort into bringing in 75 yards of topsoil, leveling it out, and preparing it for grass seed etc. But i never got around to it. Instead, here are some pictures of the progression of the land.
