Give Me Grass!!!

If there is any thing that I have learned about my view on yards, it's this:  GIVE ME GRASS.  I just can't get enough of it.  To me, a yard is supposed to be just that.  So on a previous foreclosure, the first thing I tackled was removing the more than 100 hundred bricks and stones and pavers from the yard.

This house is more of the same.  I just can't stand for grass to be covered up!  So I took advantage of the fence being broken and backed my truck all the way into the backyard.  And I lifted up all the stones and wood from the ground.  It's time to see dirt and let grass grow (I will plant it later in the fall).

A mess of stones!

Everywhere you looked, you saw more stones!

I don't even know.  A flat area for a shed?

Get out of my yard!!!

Judging by the amount of stones and the shape, I have come to the conclusion that they had a swimming pool.  I cannot verify this with any aerial photos, though, so who knows.  All I know is I don't like stones on the yard!

Bye, bye, stones!

Just give me grass!!!

The mess of stones I pulled from the yard today.

I listed them for sale.  Someone else can have them!!!

So I removed them all.  I trashed the rotten wood, and I listed the stepping stones on a Facebook selling site for $2 apiece.

UPDATE:  On August 27, the stones sold!  I received $52 for what I considered junk to me!  This house has given back already!  Woo hoo!
