      Yeah, I was wondering the same, especially after he was told about the snake.
      I was out in a field of turnip greens. I never dawned on me about anything cause my mind was set on free greens. Suddenly I felt something cold/ wet on one of my legs. I calmly pulled my pant leg up and it was a green frog.🐸 I gently took it off and then I freaked out.😖😟😧😳 I was happy it wasn't a snake.🐉

    Did some research on the property, turns out the circular structure was a house with a second story and a dome roof. It also had a second story deck off the back. It was built in the 1990s but it appears to have been vacant since at least 2006. It was gutted in 2022, when the property got a new owner. It looked pretty cool, and looks like it can be rebuilt with the existing structure.

    Idk if it's due to the injury or watching a few other styles of lawncare vids, but I'm suddenly super aware of shoveling form. In the same way ppl who lift weights need to also build supportive muscles that can get neglected, I suddenly am getting nervous of all the weight being put into the lower/mid-back & just am sending thoughts of heat packs your way XD. I know this is back-breaking work, but man, I'm all looking at it like an art form & always hoping for best health (I have back pain issues). I used to just watch this & Blade Mate Lawn Care before bed to sleep, but now I'm all up pondering the height & methods for tackling these big uncoverings & questioning things like the length of the tools & handle placements & how difficult the soils must be. Btw I love the work you do! Keep it up!
