Miracles Can Happen

It only took at least 4 attempts to get attention around this issue and today it finally paid off. We have been at this since April 6. I made two on line requests, and responded to a customer satisfaction survey about the job that was never done. We also sent a notice and link to all our neighbors informing them that city services can be requested by anyone! (not just us). So, because the tall grass is immediately adjacent to someone else's house, they called or requested service too. In these situations I say, the more the merrier. Although the city told her it would be done the following day, it obviously was not. Then finally today, when we were walking home, I noticed and heard the lawn mower in action. What a pleasant surprise! It's difficult to have to rely on someone else for just about anything here. If we ever had lawn service at our old place, you better believe those folks always showed up when they said they would.
Caught in the act- he even used the weed whacker

It's not even a City truck

Now you can see the house- finally!

A short- cut walking path has been made across the "field."
Across the street is the dumspter that has been there 5 years. One of these days...
