We saw Carole King at "The Bitter End" in the Village so many years ago..she had just recorded "Tapestry". She was the warm-up for a Folk Group..I think it was the "New Christy Minstrels" (sp?). I sure wish I had memory recall like so many of you on here.😔 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Sea Dog Posted April 25, 2023 #91728 Share Posted April 25, 2023 Success! I could not be happier. We went from this. To this. Quite the interesting process. Here is a video I put together that has some time lapse in it of the installation. I hope it will be a good investment. Already the dogs just love it and I can finally not feel embarrassed about my back yard. Heck I may sleep on it tonight. 35 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't remember if she needed an adult to join her or if I just didn't want her to do it alone. It wore me out completely. If I tried it today, 15 years older, I think it would kill me! We did it in 2005 and it was exhausting. Flow riding is for the lazy surfer. 🤫😂 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looks really nice Greg! 5 neighbors have synthetic turf, and they all have to vacuum, or leaf blow theirs. Is that the standard maintenance procedure? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is that the standard maintenance procedure? Yes that's all you have to do. But you can not power wash it because of the fine synthetic pebbles that help keep the grass looking natural and standing straight up. Clean up after the dogs will consist of picking up their waste (which we do) and any mess is cleaned by some water and dishwashing liquid and a soft brush. Should be real easy. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

taznremmy Posted April 25, 2023 #91736 Share Posted April 25, 2023 I don’t know how warm your summer’s are Greg, but here in So Cal the turf can get quite warm. I’m thinking of the pup’s paws. My solution is to water down an area to cool it off. Also, as a word of caution; I have double pane windows and some of my turf “melted” from the reflection. The solution was putting solar screens on the affected windows, and the turf company replaced the damaged area at no cost to me. They said they should have told me. That impressed me. I am so happy that I made this investment. 7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm going to send it to them anyway and maybe they will give me a break on the yearly touch up maintenance. 29 minutes ago, taznremmy said: I don’t know how warm your summer’s are Greg, but here in So Cal the turf can get quite warm.

Rare aussielozzie18 Posted April 25, 2023 #91742 Share Posted April 25, 2023 @Sea Dog interesting watching the video. Not showing it to DH. He might be keen - just to save him from lawn mowing. Great to see the pups enjoying it already and no dirty/muddy paws. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That and a springy rubber surface under the swing set and play yard! It looks beautiful. Kudos! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sgmn Posted April 25, 2023 #91750 Share Posted April 25, 2023 Been off the boards a few days. It's been hectic with baby sitting duties and g/sons 2nd birthday over the weekend. Just trying to catch up whilst he naps for an hour. We also looked after the 8 month g/son whilst mum and dad went to another concert at The O2 in London on Sunday. The crazy dog (sons golden retriever) has finally gone into second season so he can get her spayed ASAP. Hopefully then she will start to quite down. Hope everyone is well and enjoying the Spring weather (or autumn for @aussielozzie18) 10 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
