With the major rain we had these days, our backyard patch of grass (or lack of grass) had become a big messy puddle.  So we have decided to change it to an artificial grass.  I asked for a couple of quotes last week; very quickly the project has begun.  It took them a whole day yesterday to remove the dirt, place a cover and add gravel.  Today they leveled the gravel some more, then placed and nailed down the turf.  They will finish the final touches tomorrow.  Can’t wait to teach Buddy how to use that area again very soon.
