The anger is now subsiding lol.

If anyone ever needs a mow, let me know. Razz

It will be interesting to see how this ends once your neighbor comes home. Please post an update.

The dude is on some major drugs let alone the trauma to his core.
I was in that shape at one time.
The decisions I made were terrible and cost many friendships.

I mow for our neighbor who is in her mid-60's. She also walks our dogs for us if we're running late. It's a good trade, we help each other with our strengths/abilities and everyone gets along.

The neighbor to the sides of me, they have services come out. Where the line is has never come up, we just mow where we mow.

Do you need directions to my house, or do you have it covered with GPS?


Next in line after V-Tail, please.

Our grass grows quick so twice a week will have to suffice. Big Grin

A couple of weeks ago I waited until my neighbor left and spread weed and feed on his yard because I was sick of his dandelion field. No more dandelions and his yard looks way greener now.

Was that you? I was going to make dandelion wine and some asshole killed my crop when I wasn't home.

I have learned a lot from dogs that have owned me.

1. Everything is a threat.
2. All threats might be your friend.
3. Treat all strange things as a threat.
4. All strange things might scratch your ears, rub yer belly, throw the stick or ball or give you a treat.
5. Trust nothing.
6. Want to trust everything.
7. If all else fails, you have teeth, and you can kill them, or die trying.
8. "SQUIRREL!!!"

and last, but not least...

9. All dogs, go to heaven.

Life is too damned short. Approach your neighbor as a dog.

This. Think about it, traumatic injury and then you see someone on your property. Easy to lose perspective. A simple conversation should clear it up. If it doesn't I still commend you for trying to do the neighborly thing.

<Thread drift>. Hmmm. Not cool. Hopefully he doesn’t have cameras up.
Some people make a purposeful/mindful choice not to use chemicals/herbicides on their lawn. I have parrots, for example, and we are near a tributary river that leads into a large lake. I’d be pretty unhappy if someone, without my knowledge or permission, did anything like that to my property.
