Here's Bev pointing to the monster front "tree-bush." Bev was also seen later that week with clippers and a butt-crack.

There's a native box turtle around our house. He's probably wondering were all of the brush and cover went to.

The back of our house is also pretty scary. The whole backyard is covered with English and poison ivy. We've cleaned it up since this photo. We've cut back a few trees and made a frontal assault on the scary ivy. Here's another shot of the house, this time from the very back of our property line.

This is the back of the house after 20 tons of round-up, chopping, pulling, and a little napalm on the scary English Ivy. We covered it with 10 cubic yards of leaf mulch!

Lawn Restoration The first step in any lawn restoration is to strap yourself into a medieval torture machine (the rototiller) which "supposedly" takes all of the labor out of lawn restoration. Believe me, it ain't easy.

Here's the final product after rototilling, adding soil amendments, and seeding.

After a few weeks, presto, you have a nice lawn. (You can also notice that this picture was taken between the installation of the upstairs and downstairs windows.)

Here's a shot of the side yard after a few weeks.
