THE GRASS

If you are ever asked if you like St. Augustine grass, please if you ever did like me.....say NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!I am fully convinced that where Sam Houston and Davy Crockett messed up at the Alamo was they did not plant St. Augustine grass for Santa Anna to mow thru to get to the Alamo...HE WOULD HAVE NEVER GOT THERE. The stuff is deeper than the tundra in Alaska and never stops growing. I cut grass every day and rake twice a day.

I have found it is easier to stand at the corner of the house with new eave bulbs and wait for the grass to lift me up that high than to get out a ladder. I fell the other day and bounced s0 high that Home Land Security investigated me. Did you know that ST. Aug. is the only natural life that can defeat Kudzue!!!!!!!!!it is rumored that it took over a town in Florida and would not leave until the mayor changed the name of the city.

St. Augustine was not in the "Garden of Eden"...and it is fire-proof...does that give you a clue who made it? Sorry, I hear the yard calling and I got to go when it calls..........................................would you just like a trim???rv

Not so much a comment, but a blogger.com tip:

Instead of using a single account 'Ray and Nancy', you can use 2 accounts with post permission on the blog so it's easier to tell which of you posted.

Well, after laughing for a while, I was glad to hear you are keeping busy and finding humor in lots of things, (including the grass).
Your girls have filled us in on their visit and it sounds like a wonderful challenge.
