Default I need weed advice

Hi All,

The weeds are winning.

I got down on my hands and knees with my knee pads
and gloves and took out two 45 gallon trash bags of
weedsÂ* this week.Â* Mostly cheat grass.Â* And that
isÂ* only 2/5 of the front yard.Â* I have not started
my back yard yet.

I can not do this anymore.Â* I am too old.Â* And
it is a fire hazard.

The front yard, I will just have someone lay
down new plastic and re-rock it.

The back yard (my garden), I am thinking of having
someone put in tiles and raised beds:

I am at a loss as to what to put down on the
rest of the yard.Â* Tiles?Â* Plastic decking?

Your thoughts?

Many thanks,

I have raised beds, and I laid down outdoor cheap carpet where I didn't
want a raised bed. The weeds used to be horrible to deal with in the
heat of the summer. Now, it's just very minimal weeding at best.
