I've become a true suburbanite today. Our lawn had become so overgrown during the wet season we had to clear it to make sure there were no squatters taking free refuge. At the end we collected enough fallen fronds and other dying scrubbery to house a large family in Mexico. Obviously that wouldn't have fit into our little Ford Laser so we caved and spent $50 to rent a trailer for 4 hours with Andrew's truck as the muscle hauler. Mowing the knee-high lawn for 3 hours last week was torturous agony but taking the fronds to the tip today was surprisingly fun-filled and a good work out. ... maybe it was because I was the "crusher" and had the opportunity to do alot of jumping and stomping rather than schlepping the green garden waste across the yard (Thanks Andrew and Lydia!). Maybe I can be a country girl... or maybe I just like going to the tip!
