Klyd, I have to tell you that my relatives in Italy think that our American lawns are hilarious. They kept asking, So you seed it, water it, fertilize and cut it? Yes. And you just WATCH it? Yes. You can't eat it? No. And then they would almost wet their pants laughing.

Sort of puts things into perspective, doesn't it?

The weather is perfect here. Got the pool open early, although we haven't turned on the heater yet.
