Dry Lawn Already
)
Congrats Wayne & Karen. our weather has been a little coolish up until earlier this week too. Lawn looks great though. Today I sealed my aggregate drive with an epoxy product. I'll see if I can post up a pic tomorrow.

Did you say aggregate driveway. We were going to redo ours this year but that got cancelled, do to lack of green stuff. Maybe next year. We were considering interlocking or anexposed aggregate driveway. I'll have to talk to you about an aggregate driveway sometime.

A few neighbours have interlocking. They look very nice too but in time always seem to have weed problems or sinking pavers. Trouble with aggregate is really potential for cracking concrete. Use of lots of steel should resolve that.

I will be coming down your way next week. Will let you know when tomorrow, perhaps we can hook up for a cafe.

If you give me a little notice I can plan to work from the home office.

My brother has it & I looked into it as well;
For me, it was just too cost prohibitive for the size of driveway that I have.

I understand with your driveway! Mine is about 1250 sq ft w/ walkways plus I have a large stairway.

Thanks Wayne! We're kind of in between with the plantings so not much colourright now. Tulips are done etc. The annuals probably go in tomorrow. Here's a few more:
