My cousin came up with his power rake and straw blower on Saturday and helped me put in a yard. It's been about 2 years since we finished building and moved into the house, and the wife has been getting on me every day since to put in a yard.
Two weeks ago I borrowed a tractor and disk and disked the yard several times. I had it looking pretty good, to me, on Friday night. Then my cousin showed up with his Bobcat and rake and made the thing look beautiful! It picked out alot of rocks, leveled everything out nicely, and made a nice seed bed.
We spread 450 pounds of Kentucky 31 fescue and blew 37 bales of straw on top. Here are the results:
