- grade the yard with top soil (get a big cube of dirt from Burnco)
- Plant some trees/shrubs around the edges (I got all my stuff from Beaver Dam Nursery just south of the City, they are cheaper than other located in the city and everything survived so far)
- Lay the sod + add a lot of water.
- Add more water.
- Wait a year then stain or paint the fence.
- Enjoy and drink beer.

Did you do underground sprinklers in there at all or just left it all above ground?
