Fertilizer Spreader

The Scott's PF-2 drop-spreader makes short work of applying fertilizer, crabgrass preventer, and weed killer to the 12,000 square feet of the LipsYard. We do this 3 or 4 times a year to ensure a beautiful deep green, weed-free carpet of grass. Our most recent use was mid-November to put down a winterizer/weed preventer.

The White House has a fertilizer spreader, too. Former Fox News ('We report, You decide') anchor Tony Snow distributes the President's positions over the media. Unlike our spreader, Tony get's a workout on a daily basis.

Snow Job

December started in a big way, over a foot of snow!
Here at LipsYard we deal with the white stuff by wheeling out the Snapper 8 horse 2 stage 5 speed forward 2 reverse snowblower.

Cleaning out for the birds is still done the old fashioned way, with a snow shovel. Meanwhile, in Washington, DC. a snowjob of a different kind continues.

It's not a 'civil war,' it's 'sectarian violence.'
