aussie pines, great for wind breaking but hell for cleaning up one's yard and growing, they poision the soil and must be burned to the ground or cut with a very hard tool. they are doing that near one of my routes.

That's a nice sized yard. Is it all flat and grass?

I had to look up what those look like, they do look different than the evergreens. Glad we don't have those out here - or at least I've never heard of them being here.

no, its a small yard, that isn't big, that the entire lot with HOME. I can almost weed whack the entire yard. I have done large sections of it being silly. hear an old image prior to the poles being cut. if they were creasol I wouldn't have cut them. that would be deadly without the proper gear for me.View attachment 5924 .

they are oaks and I love them. they stop noise and wind naturally. they were used all over with groves. when Im in the mood to look at old county arials and I know where I was on my route, I will go back to the 40s and 50s and see the groves where they were. some of the roads in the old images will have the pines following the main road east and west to my town. I remember that. most of those are gone. new Yorkers took those down and wondered why they got hit really bad by hurricanes.

Hey, cool dog! What kind? Cool pick-up, too! Oh, didn't realize that was the whole lot size, less yard, less work. haha Is the tree in the back dead?

A mix husky and wolf? How is her demeanor? I bet she is a beauty.
A fern tree - way in the back? wow, that's huge, I've never seen one of those before.

My landlord's husband was looking or one and he was having a hard time finding what he wanted. I don't think there are too many here though.

I called her there when she had that couch. that is about a five year old pic of here. she would jump on that couch for attention like that. all I had to do was sit there and she just did the rest. belly rub time for her.

we, she did the bricks with my help. I did the pavers with her guidance as she would when I was at work dig the grass out and then I would level the sand to put in place those pavers. I called that yard tetris. that is what it was like. the pavers are odd shape. you can see the lines and see that its an L shape. hard to level that. so it has that curve to level it with the concrete.
