Beautiful Georgia

Words will never describe the beauty that surrounds us.  I was able to take these pictures on an overcast, misty morning, March 26th and share them with you today.  As I frequently remind the readers of this Blog - "Please take the time to enjoy the beauty that surrounds us all no matter where we live!!!"

Blue Star Memorial Marker

Dedication

Sunday, 15 March 2015

at the

Founders Memorial Garden

University of Georgia

This series of pictures tells the story of the Dedication without comments.  

After the Dedication we were taken to
the Plaque dedicated in lasting memory of all who served
in World War II.  This is located in the very
North end of the Founders Memorial Gardens.

Sprinkler System Maintenance

On 8 March I determined that it would be a great day to conduct some much needed Sprinker System Head Maintenance.  The pop ups need to be free of grass and other plants/roots to work most efficiently.  

I cleaned the leaves from the head!

I took a spade and cut a ring about 3 inches
away from the head!

Once I completed the circle I was ready for the next step!

I carefully removed the soil from around the head
do as to not break the water line to the
Sprinkler Head!

Now I have a hole about four inches deep and
ready to back fill with wood chip mulch!!

Once the wood chip mulch was in place
I pressed it down with my hands!!

Now we are ready for the 2015 Lawn and Garden Watering when we do not receive adequate rains!!
