A couple of dandelions appeared in our front lawn, making it look even more meadow-like.
It hasn't rained for a while, and some people have turned their sprinklers back on. One small apartment building near us - 2 storeys, 6 or 8 apartments on two floors - has a strip of grass along one side, a couple of feet wide, that has been watered every morning, rain, shine, freeze, drought, economic collapse or whatever, for years. The other day it was mowed while wet, producing deep gouges.
