So, over the last 3 years I have had a wierd relationship with the neighbor behind me. My dogs bark at him. My kids have kids balls into his yard and more recently Rocky, my male boxer, tried to go through our wall to attack him. After animal control reached out I made a visit to his house to resolve the issue of the wall. Clarence, who hates to be called sir, invited me into his humble abode and into his backyard to show me the damage. I walked out to a beautiful yard with citrus trees and a garden that was lined with vegetables. Immediately envious, I realized that I can do the same thing.
My boyfriend, Josh, fixed the wall and my gardening research began. In the mean time, Clarence has been so kind, passing over lemons and oranges for us to enjoy and I feel like I owe him something in return.
A week later my step dad, Dave, came over and trimmed my trees and met Clarence. He was able to give him some chopped wood and I feel like we are on the mend.
Next time...the perfect garden...for me and my yard.
