I have some grass seed I should sow, but it's been so chilly it might sit there until next Spring before it germinates.
Good luck on the covertible ride.

| Re: Not much longer. Jinman -- how many leaves in "fall colours" would you like? I could probably get you a few boxcar loads if you want to pay the shipping and collection fee  -- limited time offer -- soon to be covered in white stuff that does not ship well  |

That tree in your photo looks like it's on fire. Very nice!
Studor, I don't know how to tell you this, but we have plenty of leaves to mow and mulch already. It's just that ours aren't nearly as pretty as yours just before they fall. . . and thank goodness that white stuff doesn't ship well.
