Spring is right around the corner now and I'd like to clean up my back yard as much as possible. We have a problem with water rolling down hill and carrying a lot of mud with it and sometimes carving paths through the dirt during extremely bad rain storms. Often times the mud will end up on the patio and needs to be scraped up. Any tips on how to lessen the damage done by the rain?
I imagine having grass would help with that? We do get grass but it typically shows up a little later, closer to the middle of summer and even then it doesn't 100% cover up the yard, only about 75% leaving the back left 25% pretty much bare.

Grade your yard to face away from the house?
Build a wall infront of your porch...
Wtf is with those retarded steps down? Id fill that with dirt so quickly.

Yeah she used to, thats why I didn't care in the past. But shes getting older and can't move around very well anymore. I think this might very well be the last year I have her unfortunately.

The fug are you doing/did to the yard at all? Napalmed it? Grass line is lush, green and perfect, right up to the fence line. Tree wont help the (lack of) grass much either.

You can make a flower boarder/groundcover around the patio, removing some of the soil, to make a basin about three feet back from the edge, so that any soil movement will be caught there. It would spruce things up, as long as the pouch can't get to it.
