These pictures are so nice one could think it´s unreal where you live - like within an oil painting or something. Great job because this should be a hard and steady job not assuming you have a gardener...wish I had this place and plenty of time.
But one question: How will you manage this lawn and pumpkin plants overgrowing? I have a small patch and some grass to extend but no idea ho´w to manage later on.

Believe it or not, the pics do not due the property justice! Judy has an awesome place to live, HUGE yard, and a husband who takes care of the grass like its his private golf course. Maybe someday the inlaws will kick the bucket and it will be mine! LOL. Then some of that awesome grass would be tilled under!!!!! Mike

Mike,

Do all you guys in Iowa have such nice yards? Is that a law or something?

Eldridge Pumpkin,

Thanks for sharing those picks. Very beautiful yard and landscaping. Its nice to learn a little about the people we interact with at BP.com.

that nice... i think the police are checking into
it.

of them.
