a 12-inch crow at first, but after regrading we found an 18—<ineh srowm

when you are sitting in the bleachers it hes a beautiful effects

I believe you uss Bermuda gress out there, do you not?
I would say an 18=inch cromm would be better with Bermuda grass as the
grass tuft is heavy end is less noticeable than when you use blue

We have played games here wien we have had dowm-pours,

experience, the lé-inch crowtie
