Looks good Scooby. Did you see the Top Gear episode in which Jeremy, James and Richard did a garden makeover for some British soccer star? I don't think you want them working on your new lawn.

I finally got BBC America here in my house so I can watch episodes of Top Gear. I love that show.

Thanks for the compliments guys. It was a bunch of work but its worth it in the end.

mjncad: Jeremy would never get near my lawn, my old Craftsman wouldnt have enough Pooooowwwerrrrr for him :).....However James May probably would be a better gardener than myself:)

johndeere4300: That culvert was a mess :D Price wise, its almost a wash to go with the plastic. Throw in the long life and ease of handling and cutting, its a no brainier to go with it.

Locally the old fashioned galvanized pipe isnt even stocked in the smaller sizes. I believe that plastic is the code now for driveways too.

Stacking the stones really finishes the culverts off nice. Worth the extra work. Plus it holds the bank back. Only issue is that flat stone is hard to come by and i had to travel to buy that stuff.

Ive seen the VHS tape thing work too. But the old pie plate trick worked ell for me. Plus they were cheap, only $1 for a pack at the dollar store:D

The way I've been keeping deer out of my garden is using VHS tape... I take it and go around the area, and when the wind blows it will make a roaring sound, and if the sun is shining on it, then it looks like a mirror:D... The deer won't jump the fence now!

Who says old VHS tapes can't be recycled. Maybe that's what happened to Nixon's missing 18-minutes of Watergate tapes...he was using them to keep deer out of the Rose Garden at the White House. Now I'm dating myself.

Well James is known as 'Captain Slow' on the show. :)

:D:D:D:D...Matt that's too funny:D

I took all my VHS tapes and made them all DVDs... Now I have plenty of tape to use.:D

Right now I don't need to use tape because, deer season (bow) is in right now:D.. and then we have '3 gun seasons' that come in later.
