So, down there somehwere is a thread about maintaining St. Augustine grass. As some one-time posters are wont to do, Kris(something) posted a veiled ad for something called HoustonYardService.com. Out of curiosity, I went a took a gander. Folks, if your lawn looks like this, you need to fire your lawn service. LOL And, no, it's not a "Before" picture with an "After" next to it.

Just sayin'...

To be fair, Ronnie, it's not the lawn service company's fault if the owner does not water enough. (However, I would not have used the picture).

That's what I thought too, but look at the trees.

The trees could be deciduous.

Forget the yard though... I want the house!

Perhaps some stairs will build up the leg muscles so you can pick up girls


I love the dog in the upstairs left window. Even he knows the yard is busted.

Cute house. Like how the vines outline the front entrance. The lawn does look like a winter lawn with no watering. However, like the others mentioned, the trees are in full bloom.

The person who does the marketing for that website needs to be replaced, that's for sure.
