    After 2 days of the toughest work I've ever put myself through, I thought I had met my match and wouldn't be able to finish. I spent 18 hours at this property, got blisters all over my hands, and my muscles felt like jello. Welcome to my most grueling cleanup yet.

      I hate to see you struggling. It seems to me that when the curb is so thick that it would pay to run over it with the mower first. That would likely break it up some at least. Also, I have seen a cool attachment on a Stihl machine. It is a stiff bristled brush about 24 to 30 inches wide. It spins like an edger, as opposed to horizontally like a trimmer. I saw one video where it was used. Pretty amazing.

    @SB Mowing : Advice from this retired landscaper is to wrap friction areas with athletic tape beforehand. Bend your hand and fingers into the grip you will be using most and gently go twice around the areas that will get the most friction with the tape for a double layer. Press in gently for the adhesive tape to stick and then put gloves on over that. I've never had a blister. Works on hiking poles, too. Keep a roll of tape in your truck so you can take off the old dirty layers for lunch and then start over fresh.

    I can't get over the little touches this house has. It's obvious this was once someone's home and they were very proud of it. You can see what it used to be. A beautiful white house with blue trim, matching shutters and a bright red door. Those little decorative white stones placed around the front. The pretty paving stones edging the front walk. The white lattice shading the ramp. The well built roof over the side door. The pond that once sat pride of place out front for all to see. Someone once loved this house very much and whoever they were I'm sure they appreciated everything you did.

      most think it an eye sore and want it gone or not think of the aftermath or just, he cut grass it look good, and not the after effect it will cause the only way he could hurt other pockets more to live there is if he fixed up the house too.
