What a horrid looking thing that is!

We have an ouchy kind of sticker weed here too, but I don't know what it is called.

I used to be quite lawn obsessed at my last place... constant watering and mowing... Had to have perfect diagonal lawnmower tracks in the lawn at my prior place. I enjoyed working on it quite a bit.

I don't have a lawn so much now... I sortof stopped caring about it when I moved here and had more other work to do. My yard for the dogs is about a 3/4 of an acre, and it is entirely treed with firs, so it is too shady for good grass. It is kindof a combination of grass, moss and weeds that I just keep mowed by horse power and tidy up with the trimmer.

Yeah, we don't care so much about the weeds in the back yard (except for stickers...every time one of the boys finds a sticker they both get a Whopper candy!)

Our yard, even with this soft light green weed, is one of the nicest in the neighborhood. I think it must be because we merely mow and edge it. No kidding. Most people in the neighborhood just hack theirs down when it gets really tall.
