Mitch: You have grass? Man buy rocks. and sell the lawnmower. Then put the $$$ into the car. Lets see grass needs water. Then gas for the lawnmower. Then you have to get rid of the grass. Nope. Buy rocks. Its suppose to cool down the day before I get into Sky Harbor. Which is next weds morning. Back to normal I guess. But its still nice at night. Isn't it?

It didnt feel to bad during the day, night was awsome. But yeah, next week is supposed to drop back into the 70s. Kids and rocks= lots of blood.

I helped my Sis move this morning before it got too hot. We were done before noon and the heat still got to me.

Rock is much easier for upkeep, but some grass is still nice.

Very nice yard, there, Bruce!!

I remember those days, my first month there after moving from Ct., it hit 116 on Memorial day weekend, the good thing was we headed up to the rim in Payson and got away from the heat. I will say though, at least it's a dry heat :D

Bruce nice yard. I've got some friends that live in Sun city. Out front is all rocks and stone edging. In the back yard. Hell you would think your up in the northern states. Orange trees, grape fruit trees Lemon trees and a nice green lawn Looks great.

Yeah the yard is getting there...we had a huge freeze that killed off a bunch of stuf...gotta replant stuff now.

Dave...LOL

Actually I have similar "shapes" of grass on both sides of the pool. About 950 square feet...Takes about 5 mintues to mow...which is GOOD when it's over 100 degrees outside... :)

I spent all day dethatching my front yard and replacing dead bushes from the 29 degree freeze we had last month. Im sunburned and tired. Rocks sound pretty good about now.
