Exterior Progress: Part 2

We have been working on finishing up some of the loose ends on the front landscaping.  So this weekend we tackled the lawn and front post.  

We bought some all-in-one lawn seed, mulch, and fertilizer, and put it down in the front yard.  For the post, I used exterior wood filler to fill the holes, and cover screws and nails.  Then, I used some paintable, exterior caulk.  I hate caulk.  

 I initially used the my finger to smooth it out, but I decided that I liked the sharp, angular look better, so I used the putty knife to make nice sharp edges.  This week I plan on painting the post white.
