Customer paid to cleanup their neighbors overgrown sidewalk, satisfying lawn cleanup transformation

[@wendymorrison5803]

I have paid for the sidewalks cleared and grass cut for elderly neighbors before. Just so they would not fret on it. It's an easy gift to give.

Not just that, looking at the lawn, they can cut it fine, just dont have edging equipment... so this helps em out a bit :D

Excellent job! _Back when I moved into my place here some 34 years ago, my sidewalks were just a basic footpath!_ (Now, I live on the end of my street and have a pyramid shaped lot, 440 feet of sidewalks!) Anyway, I used a spade being I didn't have a weed-eater nor an edger and by the time I was done, nearly 9 hours later, my back was shot! Since that day many decades ago I purchased an Poulan Twist & Edge which was great, up until it broke 10 years ago. So being low on cash I went and bought a classic 2 wheel Ames edger just as I used when I was a young lad at my Grandpa's. (It's very hard-work but if you keep up with it and most importantly, do it when the yard moisture content is down one can get the same results as if one was using power equipment.) ~ Again, a very nice job done Sir! Be well & God Bless You & Yours, *James* P.S. I do have some videos of my yard and the sidewalks I talk about.

The stick edger has been my go to for years. Some lawn care “professionals” who use string trimmers dig a rut next to the sidewalk and driveways leavening a perfect place for weeds to grow and more importantly a place to turn an ankle if you get too close to the edge. I probably would not have gone up the driveway without permission from owner. I greatly appreciate the time you take to share with us!
