This was another pretty meh year for the lawn, as well as everything else.
From the beginning of August until this week, we only had .1" (yes a tenth) of rain. Then this last Sunday the heavens opened up and got 8" of rain in 3 days.
I wasn't able to put down serenade this year, hence rust hit. Not as bad as last year, but bad enough. I need to dial in the irrigation again.
Unfortunately lost my front tree during the August 10th storm with 100mph winds. Thankfully nobody was hurt, or property damaged, but I really liked that tree. Been cleaning up our area, and helping around the neighbors cleaning debris, etc...

Wasn't able to put down fertilizer, etc.. in August and beginning of September due to the storm and lack of rain. The irrigation was ran on auto for the most part, just to keep things alive. Finally got the tree cut down today, so I'll be able to start dialing things in again with the irrigation, fertilizer, etc...
