Ive been trying to correct a drainage problem in my front yard and reseed the lawn. Nothing but setbacks as I discover more and more problems with the old underground drain pipes. I'll have to put a stop to my efforts and re-level the dirt so it will look somewhat presentable by Thanksgiving. Rain turned the front into mud, however, and I can't do anything this weekend.
I have ordered new roses to plant in January: Just Joey, Sugar Moon, Stainless Steel, and another. I'll also plant daffodils at the bottom of the slope behind the roses. With a new lawn, new roses, and daffodils, Spring should be nice next year.
