(we have a large front yard, except it’s at a 25-30 degree angle).

anyway, i dug up a photo of that area from the ice storm, very watery:

and immediately after i dug everything out and filled it in with good soil:

and now, it (and most of the area around it) has been fertilized and seeded (and watered):

this weird substance… it almost looks like… grass!

i’ve made a change to show the ‘featured’ image within post excerpts, to bring back an image for each post (if i’ve attached an image and tagged it as featured). i’ll do some different formatting for this image depending upon the layout of the page, but for now – images will be back.
