Hate to do it, but...

Even though it’s crappy to have to go this route it’s a good route to take. Better off defining property lines. It just helps keep the peace.

And that's my thing. The clearly defined borders would help in instances like this.

Hell, there are portions of my yard he mows and vice versa. His little Craftsman mower just won't do the job and my bigger Cub will.

When he moved in his backyard hadn't been mowed all summer. Seeing how he had two boys and knowing that my Cub could mow hay I knocked down for him.

Now they have a pool and a burn pit in the backyard.

Not that I expect anything in return, just neighbors being neighbors.

He's helped us, too, in a pinch and I appreciate it. Just hate the assumption being made.

A survery will take care of any confusion.

Speaking of cutting that branch, I decided to just keep going. Got a maple in fhe front yard that needed trimming and shaping. Need to get to the big apple tree, too, since that hasn't been done in five years.

Just feels good getting out and taking care of these things. Last summer, dealing with my unmedicated depression, I could care less. I wanted to do these things, but didn't care enough to do them.
