Chasing a toad
While doing yardwork this afternoon, I apparently annoyed a toad, so then I chased him for a little while.
Disclaimer: please bear with the commercial above, how can I resist possibly making some change off a toad movie...
I'm attempting to eradicate the crabgrass and grow new "turf." We'll see. I made a makeshift aerator to assist in this task:
It's made out of a messed up garden tool, a board, drilled in bolts and stuff.
Sorry to realize just now I forgot to move this little green guy before aerating. Maybe he escaped?
Meanwhile, flowers are doing bloomingly:
Poppy
Lily of the Valley
Strawberry flowers

I love the makeshift aerator! Probably a lot easier to use in our clay-heavy soil than those clumsy aerator sandals I had.
Aww toad! CUTE. We have about a million in our yard during the summer (it actually gets a little annoying when you're trying to mow the lawn).
Loved the pictures of the flowers (and the cute little strawberry plants)
I love your garden tool did it work? I always wondered if soccer or golf shoes would do the same thing.
What a fine looking fellow - the toad, I mean.... I hope you had luck with your aerator and getting rid of the crab grass. Be back later. ATB!
You have me longing for Spring!!!
Thanks, all. Gee though, this post is almost a year old. I need to update!
The aerator is fantastic! I should think about making one for our clay soil as well!
I rather liked the "ad" ahead of the toad (who is a cutie, by the way) :-)
Love the aerator.
Dude awesome pics love lookin at em!
