The leaves are starting to fall in the yard. This is the time of year to begin raking leaves in Florida. I don't rake mine. I wish I didn't have to mow. I would like to plant a ground cover in the yard.
Mowers are so noisy and they pollute the air much more than a car.
Animals grazing would be the way to go, but since I am in the City, zoning will not allow grazing livestock. The Sunday paper brought some interesting ideas from some of the local residents of the neighborhood. Seems they believe there are too many birds nesting in the trees that surround a nearby lake. They feel the birds are polluting the water and they want the city to remove them from the area. There suggestion was to start shooting fireworks, maybe then they would leave.
