I remember my family moving into a new house we had built when I was in 3rd grade. We moved in earlier than planned, and our “yard” was nothing more than a gooey mess of dirt and clay. My Dad has always been a very hard worker, and you had better believe he wasn’t going to have his six kids playing in a mud pit.
No matter how much we would have LOVED a mud pit…
It was a very rainy year and I remember his valiant battle to grow a lawn from seed. After many attempts to get a lawn to rise up out of the soggy earth, Dad threw in the towel and finally bought yards and yards of already grown sod. Even though he felt like he gave up, I’ve never seen him so relieved! And the yard looked great, plus we got a swing set, so that was a bonus too.
My Dad is not easily beaten on DIY projects. The yard was one of the few times I have seen him hire someone for anything to do with his house (besides building it). Bottom line: If my Dad has to hire a professional for something, then it was a job that only a professional could handle. I’m not sure who he hired for the job (I was 8 after all), but I’m sure he did some shopping around and maybe even got a referral from a friend. Here at Pulse 101.7, we love referring listeners to reliable resources…
