Got a landscaping quote to do some grading work before the lawn is seeded...11 yards of topsoil for $1,100. After the car problems I'm not excited about spending that. I may try to do it myself with topsoil from Lowes.
Have some leftover steak and cherries jubilee tonight.
How have you been? Anything on the grill?
I thought about your Florida trip and thought it was this past week, but it is still to come. I hope it’s a good one.
That dirt bid is a little steep, although they’re tacking on the tractor work, too, I assume.
If you buy bagged dirt and DIY, watch out for the flimsy top soil. Lately we have noticed some very lame stuff labeled “top soil” from these places like Lowes and Homo Depot, but it has the consistency of saw dust. If it’s does not have a fairly good mixture of sand and “dirt,” then you may not be happy with it.
Are you going to light your cherries jubilee on fire with rum? :-) I bought us a big, thick ribeye that Keith will throw on the grill (one was big enough for us both), and we’ll do white potatoes on the grill, too; plus, I bought some baby portobello mushrooms I’m going to saute’ up in butter for the steak and potatoes.
