Almost Done

The only really major project left was the lawn, and the crew took care of that in record time. They flattened and compacted the topsoil, then added the sod and cut it to fit the space.


It looks like it's all ready to go, but we won't be able to walk on it for a couple of weeks. No football games yet!


Willow really enjoys the new yard, especially since she hasn't been allowed out there for the last two weeks.



All that's left are a couple of touch-up items that should be done by the end of today. They're installing a few lights around the yard, mostly up-lighting to illuminate the trees. They're also finalizing the sprinkler program and cleaning up a couple of drainage issues in the concrete. We're almost done!

Take a look at the rest of the pictures on the photo site, I've added a movie of Willow's first exploration. Being able to see it on video also gives a better indication of scale.
UPDATE: Here's the video of Willow exploring the yard....for some reason the Blogger video upload didn't work:

Well, you guys certainly stay busy. We have our own version of Willow--two of them, in fact.
