The Big Dig - December Update


In October the local sewer authority came to our neighbor's house to fix a line obstruction. Thinking the job to be easy, they thought it would take a few hours. Several days later, we were left with this.

The next week a crew came to reseed the area. As it was early November, we expected to have a large patch of bare ground until at least the end of May. But the weather turned out otherwise.

So, here you have it. The grass seed has sprouted and started to grow in the warm and wet weather of the past few weeks. Depending on the severity of the winter, we wonder how well this new grass will survive.

More importantly from Bobbie's perspective, the crew replanted some of the displaced asparagus just out of view on the left of the photo as well as the grass. But we will have to wait until spring to find out the fate of both.
