The Grass Is Always Greener

Went to the cemetery tonight for a visit. I brought along with me 4 gallons of water and a bag of Miracle Grow Powder. I mixed up the pretty blue concoction and watered dad's grass. I'm hoping it will help it green up a bit faster. The sod they laid back down all died and has just made visiting a bit extra depressing. This week green grass has finally started to shoot up, but not fast enough for me!

Becky met me there and we spent quite a while talking and wandering around the cemetery until it got dark. It's nice to visit sometimes. Feels like you're kinda with him for a moment.

We saw that some of the Veterans head stones had arrived for those vets that passed away in February and March, so we're hoping dad's comes in in the next couple of weeks. Becky is going to call to find out if they'll let us know when they'll put it in. We'd like to be there when the cement around the marker is wet to maybe write something in it.

We'll take pictures when it's in to post here on the blog.
