That's alot of grass to cut

Looks great, it's amazing what some seed and a little bit of time will do...

Yeah, big dog but he doesn't run around out there unless I'm w/ him as we live on a busy road and he has no concept of his size vs. a car. I have 5 acres but mow about two. It sure is a lot better and thanks!

wow, that looks nice!!

Funny that you're spending money adding grass and we're spending money removing it so we have less to mow (putting in a pool)... and I'm only on 1/2 an acre!!
