Backyard Grass Growing

Colorado had a fairly serious draught the summer/2002, which led to water rationing. This, of course, had rather dramatic consequences for those of us who live in suburbia, as instead of being able to watch our backyard grass grow, our normally green lush lawns turned brown ... and there were even a lotta bare spots! :-(

Fortunately, 2003 was quite a bit wetter, and if you add enough water to grass, it will grow back as can be seen in these pictures of my back yard. I did shoot more picture of the front yard, so watch grass grow.
