WTH IS UNDER THERE? HUGE yard clean up: ABSOLUTELY FREE

  • I received a call from the city that there was a family in need of help. The mother and father had both moved in with their daughter due to illness. Sadly, mom passed away. Dad is struggling with early onset alzheimer's. The poor daughter is trying to care for her father and take care of two properties. As you can see from the video she was having trouble keeping up. She did have someone mowing the property, but they suddenly stopped and it quickly became very overgrown. I was glad the city reached out and that I was able to help this family. Watch the video to see these AMAZING before and after pictures at the end. Also, check out this HUGE grapevine that completely consumed everything under it. MASSIVE. What was under it you ask? Check out the video to see :) Along the way, I had a few unexpected guests stop to chat. Also, on day 2 my son made another appearance. I certainly appreciate his help.

    Words cannot express how much appreciation I have for you in the help you gave us on the yard. I was wonderful to see my grandma's rose bush again. We have received an offer on the house and it will be sold soon and fixed up again. Exactly how my parents would have wanted.🙂

    Great transformation you and your son did on this very neglected yard. Always keep your equipment locked down and when you lay something your working with, keep your eye on it. Maybe the owner of her Moms house and hire someone to clean up the junk everywhere and then put a 4-sale sign on it. If they cannot keep it up they could sale to someone as a fixer upper. Bless you and your son for two day of working in the heat to make life better for these people. And by the way that Santa I'm sure will be real good to you and your family this upcoming Christmas.
