You don't want a long dry spell when planting grass seed. It needs a lot of water over the next couple of weeks to germinate. Unfortunately it sounds like you got some real downpours that helped wash the seed away.
Seeding in the really late fall works because it shouldn't get warm enough for the seed to germinate and the snow will help get the moisture levels up for the spring when it starts to warm up. That's why you are seeing germination now from the the seeding you did in Oct/Nov.

Yup - that's what we shoot for. Our grass areas (can't really call them lawns) get a lot of critter traffic, and the one close to the house gets a lot of people traffic. PapaLew overseeds just before the first snow to fill in the bare spots that occur over the summer.
 
I am going to be all Chaser like the rest of the week. Tracking a new Saris bike rack, some misc bike stuff and a Weathertech trunk liner for dah new wheels.

:jiggy:

As soon as bike rake comes I'll have to go buy a new bike to.

Boxster, I picked up a Saris Bones 2 last fall, really like it. Helpful tip take a sharpie and mark where you get it set at to fit your car, then all you do is spin it to where the marks line up drop the clips around the trunk and your good to go.
 
Man, there are a lot of people on the football and basketball board with their panties painfully stick up their hypothetical vagina, aren't there?

Marvin is the new patron saint of the basketball threads.

Ordered a gray Bones 2. Matches the car color don't ya know!

How do you keep the bike from swinging out? Do these crank down enough on top to control that? My old rack (which I pitched this winter) had issues with that.
 
We've been down in the storm shelter at work due to the tornado warnings here in Omaha. I think there was a funnel cloud somewhere near about 160th & Blondo. Don't think it touched down.

Hopefully all the Omaha clones are safe and check in soon.
