We were going to be written up and turned in and looked down upon by the neighbors and we hadn't even begun our lovely experience. I was told by others here on TOTV to relax, that the grass doesn't grow that fast, not nearly as fast as we were used to, and it was NOT over our head when we got there, not even shabby looking in a months time (???). We were able to ask the neighbors who they used for lawn services and we we then contracted with a person who charged us right around fifty dollars a month to cut, weed and trim. It is a small lot and in the two years it has been well kept by these reliable people.

Please don't worry. There are a lot of reliable folks here who care for lawns.

Thanks Gracie,
I was afraid the sheep I count at night would have to be sub-contracted to lawn duty @ TV
