About that Grass

I posted a note on seeding grass a couple of days ago. Then, it rained. A lot. My rain gauge holds two inches of water. It filled and overflowed. My best guess is that three inches of rain fell over 43 Carbutt. The old sump pump was going constantly. It still is, as that water percolates downward. Now, it's mostly sunny and things are looking up for the grass seed.

But, the rain also encouraged the weeds to flourish. Thistles are everywhere. Many of them are well over 12 inches high.

Happiness does not include weeding ...
