Abstract: Let $Gamma$ be the fundamental group of a manifold modeled on three dimensional Sol geometry. We prove that $Gamma$ has a finite index subgroup $G$ which has a rational growth series with respect to a natural generating set. We do this by enumerating $G$ by a regular language. However, in contrast to most earlier proofs of this sort our regular language is not a language of words in the generating set, but rather reflects a different geometric structure in $G$.
