Nice work Franky!!

My Dad has always had a small obsession with his lawn. To the point that we would call him the 'Lawn Ranger' when we were younger. In the past few years he has really made a great hobby out of lawn and gardening. He has been furthering his education and he even has worked it into his job. We all thought he was nuts when he said he was ripping up all the grass in the backyard and making it a garden. It is now a spectical i cannot even describe it is so beautiful. This year we thought he had lost his mind when he was going to rip up his precious front lawn and put in a garden. But man did it turn out to be beautiful. Not only has he gotten recognition from friends and family but now he has gotten recognition from the city. Buffalo in Bloom saw the work he has done and has praised him for it. They took a great pic and put it on their website for all to see. If thats not gratifying i don't know what is. Congrats Dad!!!! All your hard work has paid off!!
