The Yard Today

 Thursday, August 27, 2026

The sunlight hits differently in late August. It's more golden in the late afternoon and early evening.

We need rain as the drought continues. We're letting the grass go dormant however we're still watering the gardens. 

Ornamental Grasses

About a month ago I bought some ornamental/drought resistant grasses from a colleague at work. I got some of them in the ground a few weeks ago but only got the last few in the ground today. Since it has been above freezing so much I hope it won't be a problem. I think they're going to look great in the next year. We're still in a significant dought. I can't believe I'm still planting and watering in December.

Yard Work - 300th Post

Did a little yard work today. We've had drought conditions for a while and since I haven't watered for a bit I figured I better do just that.
