The fellow said we will need about 112 rolls. Hopefully I can get it laid down quickly.

Yes probably another one like today. At least the dirt shovelling will be done.

I think I managed to talk my way out of that one Pat. It was close but I think I did it.

Unfortunately, this was my idea. We use rock, instead of mulch around the flower beds. I don't have to replace it every year, it doesn't blow all over, and the plants seem to do really well with it.

True. I used landscaping ties around the lawn and flower beds.
