      That neighbor was nosy because not many people have seen a great big lawn machine like that, that can take all the high weeds and grass like that. I’m surprised more people weren’t out there to watch you and that machine! lol.. And thank you for not calling her “A nosy Karen”. Too many UA-camrs with their own UA-cam channels use that name, Karen, for a degrading insult when it’s a name. You were very polite. 😁

    I have to say, that's the most anti-neighbor behavior I've ever heard. First off, NOBODY has any right to tell someone else what to do on their property. None, period. Unless they worked for Code Enforcement, that's another story, but having no authority over their land, so they're in absolutely no right.
    Second, if people really were neighbors, hearing what those people went through, they would've at least lent a hand.
    Thank goodness for guys like you, Erik.

      Hmm, really! I live on a 10-acre rual farm for 26yrs. I've had 2 major medical events that has left me not being able to mow my farm. That I was able to keep in pristine shape. The 2 close neighbors have lived there for just under 10 yrs. Neither one has offered to help. The neighbor on my right called codes. Causing me all kinds of stress. So living in a rual has nothing to do with having good neighbors.

    My neighbor (another widow) was 20 yrs older than I and I did my best to take care of the things she needed including laundry in the garage when she could no longer take the stairs between house and garage. We lived as neighbors for nearly 40 years before she had to go to adult care. Now nobody in the surrounding area helps each other or talks over the fence anymore. Sad state of our world. Thank you Erik for being one that cares and helps!

      I have a 500 lb neighbor who broke her leg and was in rehab for 6 months. Another neighbor and myself took turns mowing her front yard while her 21 y.o. nephew "lived in the house". When she got home neither of us were told thank you and I stopped doing it. The other neighbor continues to help out even though she is not homebound and works. Still no gratitude from her....just the expectation it's someone else's job and not hers. I really can't remember who was taking care of it prior to her rehab stay...but she had someone doing it. In our case, we are being taken advantage of and I stopped letting that happen.

      I miss talking through fence neighbors. Next door has become abandoned (fun fun!)and to the left they are quiet and elderly but they smile and wave. They never asked for help until I gave a Christmas card and my phone number one year when I cleared our driveway I cleared theirs too. Found out they don't see good enough to drive in snow and I went for food for 3 folks on the block. A few years later we exchange plants veggies and conversations. We need more neighbors like this one. All we want is someone who smiles waves and keeps the land nice. Anything extra is a bonus.

    Sadly I have a neighbour who keeps demanding we cut our yard. I have been sick off work for almost 12 months. My husband is not in the best of health and works full-time. The yard is not at the top of our list and we haven’t the money to pay someone to do it. It is really stressing me out and I am expecting him to report us to the local council soon. Before I was ill I kept the yard beautiful, neat and tidy. If I could do it I’d be outside from dawn til dusk fixing it. Why do other people feel the need to interfere with our lives and cause us stress? Erik, as usual you have worked a miracle on this yard and have done a marvellous job. That mulching machine of yours is a game changer. ❤

    Back in 1993 my wife and I bought a house in Springdale, Arkansas. Small 2 bedroom older home built in the 30's. We hadn't been there but a few weeks and I noticed my shepherd licking the grass. I walked over to see what he was doing and there was a 2 inch steel pipe sticking out of the ground about half an inch filled with water. My neighbor, an older gentleman told me his brother had lived in that house right after he came home from WWII. That was their well. So I get a water pump that attached to my drill, hooked a 50 foot hose to it, fed it down the pipe, I had free water. So I poured a 3 inch slab of concrete around it and built what appeared to be a doghouse around it and put a 110v pump in it. Lived there 12 years, filled a 9,900 gallon swimming pool from it every year, watered the garden and lawn with it. I thought about hooking it up to the house but wasn't sure if that was legal or not. I also put in a fish and game cleaning station with a double deep sink. It was great.

    We had an older couple move in next door. They were in their mid 70's. He was sickly and she was in good health but was unable to do some things. So we helped them with home repairs, painting, mechanic work on occasion. In turn the elderly gentleman watered my flowers, and cared for them every spring until winter hit. He loved to garden so each spring I would help him plant my front yard flowers as well as his flowers. He asked to take care of mine as a way to us since we helped them so often. With both me and my husband working full time, this was a perfect solution. They were the best neighbors I've ever had.

    I am very blessed to have my sons living close. My yard is almost an acre. The yard had gotten pretty grown up due to my surgeries, family illnesses, and just life in general. My boys came up with their tractors and big trailer. They were getting the brush out when a neighbor came over and asked when their 'mother passed'. They told him that I was in the house watching TV. They had a good laugh and ended up helping him spread a dirt pile. For no charge, of course.

    I love what you do Eric. I mentioned once before we had been looking for help. We are nowhere near you though. Yesterday one of my neighbors complained too. They have all the equipment we would need to get our place cleaned up, but not only will they not help us, they are threatening to sue us now. They won't get very far with it. I still am fighting my broken back. People can be such jerks.

    Neighbors are not what they used to be when I was younger. I am in my mid 60's along with my brother-in-law, and we still get out there to mow and weed eat. I still love it and both of us can still do it. My sister, in her 70's, gets out there and pulls weeds and digs up roots when needed. Most people cannot rely on neighbors who are only looking out for themselves and like to cause problems for those that need a helping hand. It is a shame. Our world has changed so much and not for the good. Thank God for people like you and several other utubers that get out there to help those in need. Looking forward to your next video.

So neighbors stay on their side if the fence, and still they have no desire to help someone, some of the neighbors are a part of the problem. They toss their trash in there, too. But we bless God for you. ERIK. YOU ALWAYS BLESS SOMEONE FAR BEYOND WHAT THEY CAN EXPECT, I LOVE THE COMPANIES WHO GIVE YOU HEAVY DUTY EQUIPMENT TO HELP YOU GET THE JOB DONE.!!!!!!
