Yesterday was the Fall equinox.

After the storms, we must have gotten about 2 inches or more of rain. We really needed it.

Vince was worried if I mowed the lawn that I would mash the new baby grass that is starting to grow since we did all that stuff to the yard. But it desparately needed it. So I did.

Here are some photos from just a few minutes ago. You can see some of the pics from earlier this year here. The rose bushes are bigger and there is more grass. Other than that, not much has changed.

The arbor on the right side of the house.

Here is one of the Pin Oaks in the front yard. I don't think I took a photo of them earlier this year, but I should have.

We cut down those aweful marigolds. They got about 5 feet tall and obscurred the impatients.

Here is the arbor on the left side of the house. The boxwood hedge is doing alright. I didn't see an explosion of growth I wanted, but they did grow some this year.
