2010 dawned with a bright, hopeful, sunny day here in Arizona. With it came a new idea for landscape beautification. The city has just re-paved a road across town but January 1st is no time to be growing grass alongside it. So . . . solution? Paint the dirt! Presto! A green border!
Great idea as long as you don't have to mow it.
ReplyDeleteBut I thought you liked to mow, Mike!
ReplyDeleteLove it. I should do that to my back yard! Save a lot of time and money :)
ReplyDeleteHallo by the way! Just gatecrashed from a link off Kitty's blog!
Happy 2010!
Reminds me of things they used to do on Army Bases.
ReplyDeleteRosie - They do a lot of that sort of thing down around Phoenix. Sometimes it works - sometimes it's just gaudy.
ReplyDeleteGlad you stopped by. You're welcome anytime.
Steve - Yes, I think I've seen that around bases, too.
Did they get leftovers from the Lowe's folks?
ReplyDeleteNice to see your sense of humor survived New Year's Eve, GJ. :-}
ReplyDeleteI'm really late with this comment, I think what's in the picture is pre-emergent. You see it all over in the Valley, sometimes it's green, sometimes it's orange. The pre-emergent they spray in our yard is yellow. I think the highway department is just trying to get a jump on the weeds that are sure to sprout in newly disturbed soil.
ReplyDeleteAZ - I think you're absolutely correct. SWMBO told me that soon after reading my posting.
