Payoff

SO finally, we are more or less done working on our yard for the summer. In case, you haven't seen our place, the yard was a dump when we moved in. Note the airplane pieces and the trailer full of junk.

I feel it is important to note that what you can't see is an enormous barn, also full of junk. So full that the previous owners built a lean-to for their snowmobiles.

Here's another picture, showing the excessive amount of pavement. When we moved in, our yard was about 85% paved.

So we set about fencing the yard, removing the lean-to, and getting rid of some of the pavement.

This is the yard after Dan and our friend John hacked it up with a jackhammer.

Then, we seeded the old driveway and grass came up.

As you can see, the dogs now have 74.6% more peeing and pooping space. Before, it was a bit like a prison yard, and we'd catch the dogs smoking, lifting weights, and giving each other tattoos. Now, they are super happy, which they have indicated by increasing their weewee output but 17%.
