5 UNSAFE Sidewalks that FORCE People to Walk in the STREET

[@sheilae.5257]

That apartment complex owner/manager was mad because you exposed a job he should have been keeping up with. The renters should get on his case about why he hasn't been doing the job.

[@DereksLawnRescue]

Right! I won’t let him keep me down! Thank you 🙏 for your support!

[@dunebuggymike]

"We can't have that here" is the motto that everyone should live by. Hard to believe that these things go unaddressed for so many years. Love the channel! You do good work.

[@DereksLawnRescue]

Thank you for your kind words! I will definitely keep doing what I can because I want to help as many people as possible. We can't have that here started all because I am not ok with my city being full of safety hazards, and people need to be able to safely walk to wherever they need to go

[@maxallen-macdonald8791]

You really need a tarp to toss your clippings onto so you can move them to the trailer! Fantastic work and I am impressed that you took the prickly pear to the food bank.

[@DereksLawnRescue]

Yeah I need to purchase quite a few things but a tarp is on the list! Thank you 🙏 I couldn’t let that go to waste knowing that someone hungry could have food in their belly

1 - belated Happy Birthday! What is the favorite meal of yours that your wife fixed? That traffic is SCARY 2-3 - I had no idea that cactus was edible! Glad you were able to donate some to a food bank. I've seen cactus for sale at one of the grocery stores I shop at. That little chain saw is a beast! You should look into getting one of those umbrellas that go on a tripod to shade the camera. May help with overheating. 4 - you weren't wearing safety/visibility gear on this. At times, you were blending into the horizon, almost, with your blue shirt and khaki pants. Please be safe out there! 5 - those junipers just grow and collect garbage! You did a great job clearing the sidewalk and making the mailboxes accessible for the tenants and the postal worker. How goofy the landlord must be, to have allowed it to get to that state. Great job on all segments!

[@DereksLawnRescue]

Thank you 🙏 and my wife made fried chicken tacos Yes cactus is edible and it is similar to green beans in flavor I will look into an umbrella for the tripod And that 4th sidewalk was the first ever one that I did.

Nice work on the sidewalks so much neater and safer. The only thing that I would suggest with you being so close to the road is to wait till the traffic dies on some then weed whack so in that case, you won’t have to worry about a rock or something hitting somebody’s card and you get sued for it. I don’t know if you have any type of insurance in case that happens or not wouldn’t want that to see you happen to your family just a suggestion, but keep up the good work and I’ll continue to watch since I’m a new subscriber and good luck to you and be safe
