Title: The dreaded backyard snow melt has started
Post by: Alex4200 on February 07, 2016, 03:35:27 PM: Ok, only those of you who have large breed dogs (in my case more than one) with winter snow cover on the grass will understand. A price those of us pay for having bird dogs. Garbage bag must have weighed 50 pounds today. And I thought I had been doing a good job of "keeping up" this winter. Sorry, I couldn't resist doing at least one crappy post.

Yeah I'm gonna need to mow the lawn soon. :chuckle:

Got it done today, cleaned up all the limbs, mole hills, filled in the dog dug holes, mowed all he lawn and it looks awesome, some of the areas was already 3-5 inches high. Had to have been 60 degrees here today, warmest day of the year, even hotter tomorrow. :chuckle:
