Lawn Aeration

Aerator with ATV
Many of us have our own way of preparing our lawns for winter, but we have found that lawns grow the most in the spring and fall seasons. So those are the best times to help the grass grow. The reason grass grows best in fall and spring is because it is coming out of dormancy.
 
One of the easiest ways to improve your lawn is by aeration. A plug aerator can not only help your lawn breath, but also help it absorb the fertilizer you are putting down. It also helps break down heavy thatched areas of grass by putting fresh soil on top of the thatch layer to help it break down.

Cell Phones for Troops

Recently I purchased a book from www.amazon.com.  I received with the book an envelope for a cool new program that has been created to help our troops in the Middle East be able to contact home a little easier. It is called “Cell Phones for Soldiers.”

 It came as a plastic sealable bag to put old and used cell phones in so they can be activated to send over seas.  I thought it was a great idea to help families keep in touch, even if it is just for a few minutes.

The program is free to anyone who wants to participate, and the only cost is that old phone that you really don’t need anyways. What a great idea!
