Instant Grassification

We wish we could take credit for coming up with the title of this blog post, but it's borrowed from the Yukon sod farm - the Sourdough Sodbusters. It's in their brochure and on their web site.

Susan came up with the idea that we should lay sod in the back yard between the garden and the house as a transition that would soften all the hardscaping elements, such as the rocks and the patio stones. So we went out to the sod farm yesterday and picked up 500 sq ft of sod.

Of course, we had prepared the ground in advance - but we finished laying the sod by 6:00 pm. It took about two and a half hours. And the results are amazing! Just what Susan had in mind.
