Green green grass of home

The green green grass of home. I think that could be the makings of a song. Oh wait, I guess it is a song! Can you believe how much greener the yards have gotten in just the past few days? My husband had just said the other day that people in Des Moines have been mowing already and that our yard wasn't ready to mow. Now with the recent rains I think that we will be mowing very soon. Bill said he needs to change the oil in the mower and get it ready. He put on crabgrass preventer last week and has some fertilizer for later. One of his favorite sayings lately has been 'I would rather mow than shovel'. I hope he means it!
