re: Neighbors Who Keep Their Yard Up Too Much

It's better than having neighbors that keep their grass high.

I have to cut mine twice a week. Shyte grows way too fast in the summer.

Everyone has to have a hobby. Just be glad that his hobby helps your property value.

My neighbor growing up was obsessed with his yard. He was always out there day and night. He was in a big vp position at a major company so I have no idea how he had the time. He had a smoking wife and two lovely kids. Well one day the wife takes off back to Chicago with the kids. Never see them again. He would drink in his yard with his landscaper occasionally. Next thing I know he is going to swinger parties (word through the grape vine). I go home for Easter and there is a wheel chair ramp up to his door from his drive way. I ask my mom about it. He was recently diagnosed with AIDS.

My neighbor vacuum his yard to remove acorns- I don't care either way. When I'm his age I hope to do so the same thing

You need to invite this guy to your garage for a beer. Often.

I prove this false. I'd rather golf or fish than cut grass and play in the flower bed. I pay somebody to do that shite.

Guess we need to get together and just watch our grass grow. I prove this grass cutting by old folks way wrong.

I have my wife cut it.

I have one across the street with Bermuda grass. He started at his driveway, goes across the yard and back, dumps the bag and repeats. He does this every couple of days. When he's done there's a small pile of grass as fine as dust.

Mine looks like crap right now because I'm not getting out there with my allergies. I'd be sick for a couple of days afterwards.

I had a neighbor who would mow his yard every day starting when he got home from work and ending at twilight. I am talking fully edged, bagged, weedwhacked, etc. He had a fat wife and a drunk son and I am pretty sure he hated his life.

I would have my yard mowed maybe every two weeks.

The surprising thing is, my yard stayed greener than his. I know this infuriated him, because he would constantly stand at the edge of his property and glare at my lawn, not at me, he was always pleasant, but man he hated how green my yard stayed.

I cut mine every other weekend this time of year. Soon it will be every Saturday. Then the heat takes over and it is back to every other week. I enjoy getting outside as much as the next guy, but I'm definitely not doing it all the time. I plug in the blower at the end and blow off the sidewalk. No way I'd be doing that every few hours.
