I'm sure that there was a house there at one point. You can look at the location on Historic Aerials. Most of Northern Idaho has Aerials that date back to the 1950s.
Out of all the lawn channels I watch, Fill is the only one that actually collects the grass, debris and discards it all. You lead by example Fill. Keep up the good work!
Others collect. Blade Mate, and Top Notch do, just off the top of my head. I do prefer that they do but some just done have the room to take it with them.
That’s why I watch him too! So many just leave the long clippings and when they edge they just shovel large dirt chunks back on the lawn. This guy has real pride with his work.
Hey Fill, Lise here, my phone was on the fritz so I was using my husband's phone ( which he did not aporeciate) anyway beautiful work. I today edged my sidewalk with a pair of scissors. I did an okay job however it winds up looking like a moat ( like 2 inches wide) but it's now done. Everyone loves that automatic broom. I want it. I love Foxglove. It'll grow back. Keep on truckin.
Terrific job, Sir. Much thanks. Isn't is remarkable that NO ONE bothered about this mess - for YEARS - until this young man took the initiative. Its head-shaking.
My favorite part was the stair reveal early in the video. It was better than any deep see treasure hunt documentary! Beautiful find! Nice job. I'm a fan!
Wow what a good improvement. I hated to see the beautiful flowers gone. I’m sure someone lived there and enjoyed their space. Thanks for taking us along on your journeys.
Those purple flowers i believe are creeping bell flower which in my area are a invasive species. They will take over a yard quickly. Very hard to get rid of.
It never ceases to amaze me how people let their properties go to pot. It’s so disrespectful to the neighborhood that tries to keep their places nice. Thanks for all you do!
They may have passed away possibly but if I was their neighbour I would keep it nice, if just for my own self respect! (Everyone gains from a nicely maintained neighbourhood)..
as a young disabled senior - more than anything else - my thanks would be for all you did to make the sidewalks functional and safe - healthy folks who drive don’t realize how important accessible safe sidewalks are for those of us no longer able to drive and struggle even to walk - many thnx con’t success 🙏🇨🇦
I hope that the neighbourhood will now put the effort to look after this small little park and old shed. You have done your part and now is their time. Well done.
Awesome Job! As usual, it's not about what you can get out of it, but what you are doing for others, in this case, the neighbors that had to look daily at that jungle! My favorite part was the way you transformed what used to be a piece of concrete into a real everyday sidewalk! The road and the sidewalk is the first thing that people look at and you changed that completely. You are a real blessing to your community. God bless!
It is really nice that you are one of the few good young men out there cleaning up place. It always looks great when you are finished. Stay hydrated and God Bless.
I really liked that you use a grass clippings catcher! Your equipment is awesome. Great job! Yes, use goggles and mask. Take care of your body: eyes and lungs. It's a pleasure to watch your work. Best wishes. Remember folks, if you watch thru the ads, it helps Fill more...
Yes, so glad to see you wear a mask and ear plugs. Very important in this type of work. Question': What is that rotating brush called? You are the only one I see that uses it and I think it's awesome...looks like a time and labor saver. . Thanks for the videos. Have a nice summer.
WOW! It is so nice of you to do this! I bet when it is this overgrown, it is hard to determine what to mow down and what to keep? I just know I would never be able to do this work. My favorite part of this video is the before and after pictures! What a difference. Thank you for your hard work. There is a special place in heaven for people like you.♥
That is a nice sized lot and one can hope someone sees that now and there is a buyer who can envision a pretty house built there ! Love your videos and keep them coming ! You certainly have found some interesting jobs to tackle ! Very nice 👍🏼
I watch many lawn care UA-cam channels even though I have never even mowed a lawn( I'm a women, 64 years old) but I love the sound of the equipment and the watching the work. It's relaxing and satisfying. But out of all the channels I watch, your my favorite. You never skip amything, you do a complete job, and your a man of your word, which carrys a huge weight for me. And I believe your a christian. Your the only channel that says " God bless you " at the end of your video. Thank you for setting your standards high. Your also the only channel that goes to great lenght, to give advice for others who wish to start there own business. I like watching these as well. Thank you and God bless.
I too am 64 years old, I try very hard in my garden even though I've had back surgery, I feel good in the garden and still mow all my lawns but hedges getting difficult. ❤
How come you’ve never mowed your lawn? Are you just a naturally lazy type? You are still quite young as gardeners go so maybe you should try it sometime. ( I mean that with respect.)
@@philtucker1224 Don't own a home. I live in a boardinghouse that surrounded by a parking lot. I've always lived in apartment complexes in the management mows the lawn
@@philtucker1224 No, I'm not in the best of health and I have no car right now. I'm just a geek who enjoys watching people mow their yards, clean and detail their house, groom their dogs or restore old furniture. I just find them relaxing and enjoyable and I love the sound of the lawn mower.
Yes, there definitely was a house there, along with the old barn. My guess is that it was a very long time ago. I'm sure the neighbors really appreciated your work. Who would want to see that every day? Now that you've cleared it, maybe someone will notice it and buy it. That was a really good transformation. 👍
I want that super sweeper!!!!! Nice!!! The property looks incredible!!!! My father passed away last year. He left his property to me. The problem is his property is at the opposite side of the country from me. I can't take care of it the way I wish I could. So many homes like this...
Your equipment and truck and that nice haircut is always so clean and sharp just as the job you do turning an over grown lot into something to be proud of. Thank you so much for the family friendly content. Stay safe..God bless you Fil
Your channel is educational for aspiring lawn care people. You have great tools and knowledge in your profession. I am glad so many people around the world are doing this amazing work for their community. Thank you.
Amazing effort! I can imagine neighbours feel safer now and their children playing under that tree. Thank you for making the neighbourhood a better place.
Beautiful as always. ❤ I wonder if the town has a historical record of what used to be there. I imagine children running up that walk coming home from school. Great job! 🎉
The flowers were beautiful but they needed care. You made this lot look so nice. Thank you for all that you do to help people and the community. God bless ❤️🙏🙏👍👍🌟🌟❤️
That face mask is SUCH A NEAT IDEA!! Gonna have to get one of those from Home Depot for my yard work around the house!! And that electric broom is double cool lol. Wow, what a neat idea!! You have such cool stuff, it's a joy just to watch you! Big thumbs up 👍👍👍
Love the foxglove. It was a favorite of mine when we lived in the Northwest. If it's not native it is at least wonderfully naturalized. It will return. Nice work, Fill. My favorite part is the edging, peeling back the overgrown edges.
I can't pick out one particular facet of your videos that I like best, I like the whole thing! I love watching you take an overgrown property that's polluted with high grass, weeds and overrun sidewalks and pathways, and transforming it into a potential park-like setting! It makes me do a better job of mowing my own property because of all the things that I watch you do!!! Thanks for the inspiration!!!
Wonderful job!!! I only hope the existing neighbors will get involved and help to keep it looking nice after all your fantastic work!!! Be Safe and Be Blessed!!!
That is one magnificent old cherry tree. I wonder how old it is. The old barn on the property would make a great barn conversion if it could be rescued… just add a nice big porch/verandah across the front
First up, your truck is so shiny 😁😁 Next, l love these videos where the properties are crazy overgrown! The results are always better, and one can really appreciate all the hard work that has gone into clearing and cleaning the property 👍👍👍 First time watcher here 😁😁 What a fantastic setup?
I'm always curious what kind of wild flowers you have to mow over to get the place cleaned up. Those purple flowers looked like foxglove and were very pretty. Good job as always. Some times you can only do so much but you always manage to make a silk purse from a sows' ear.
Hi teejay, I’ve actually seeing mixed seed packs of those natural woodland flowers you can sow in your own property if you have one, the butterflies and bees are soon attracted to them! Kind regards.
Definitely had a house there at one time. Those steps prove it. Hope now that it is cleaned up, that someone will start a new house there soon. Cross fingers! Wonderful job done for the neibourhood in the mean time.👍👍🇦🇺
That's smart of you to bring your own trash can and coal shovel. Oh and that Power Broom was your best purchase yet! 🌐🎯*(sometime bring a bucket of water and save some of those purple flowers for your parents or wife/GF. Consider that a bonus. It will put a smile on their face.)😁🥰
I couldn't tell if the purple flowers are the purple flowered plants that are invasive plants and New York State is trying to eliminate them because they just take over and eliminate other plants.
Phil,what a wonderful job you did on this property. As always you do the best work on these lawns so precisely in what you do. be sure to use sun protection,drink plenty of liquid so that you don't get dehydrated. Love your work.Gid bless you and your family.
@@janetborst1895no, leaf mould is very nutrient rich. Also using it as a mulch keep the moisture in and the light out so is also vital for good soil health and beneficial creatures.
Lots of beautiful purple wild flowers. I’m surprised you didn’t encounter a bee or wasp hive somewhere in there. Great makeover though. There definitely was a house there before. Those stone steps look really old.
I think what I've learned from watching these videos is to be 1. I am more aware of my neighbors and how they might be fighting real-life battles that no one else knows about. 2. If I lived next door to someone who didn't (or couldn't) care for their property, then I would voluntarily take care of it so that the valuation of my own property wasn't affected.
You have all the kit you need to tackle any job. I’m constantly amazed at what you bring out from the back of your trailer. Your brush is amazing, I so need one, and your latest ride on mower that cuts weeds as high as you and almost as thick as shrubs, where do you get them from? I’m in awe, as they don’t look cheap but do a fantastic job! Yours is the only channel I view.
Like your positive vibe this time, Fills. Nice! Also, good on you for getting the job nicely done. You have a lot of great, appropriate tools to help you do the job right!🎉🎉😊
I honestly thought there may have been a tiny house in there! But you did a wonderful job on that beautiful piece of property!! God Bless You and Yours 🦋🌼🦋 First time subscriber 😊
Wow! So much better!! 🎉 I'm certain the neighbors and community are thankful for all that hard work that you did to make the area so much nicer 🎉🎉 34:49
What a blight to the neighborhood that property was! That was a lot of work a quite a challenge!!!! Such an enjoyable video from start to finish! What an amazing transformation!!
What an amazing transformation from overgrown to mown. If you ever consider a career change, urban archeologists could learn from your skills discovering and redefining the stairway. Thanks for protecting your self by wearing gloves, eye protection and a breathing filter. You need not expose yourself to molds, fungus and other parasites that might be waiting dormant in dry leaves and tall grasses. Wishing you and your bride a blessed week filled with gentle rains, seasonally appropriate weather and restful evenings together. Peace brother
I have never seen anybody else use the power broom. Very very smart idea and I'm sure money well spent! I will have to admit at one point I thought maybe there might be a house back there, but you did say it was an empty lot. Nice job!
You made such a big difference on this empty lot. The neighbors are very happy. My favorite part is the cleaning up the curb with your brush equipment.
I liked how you cleaned up the gutter of the streett and the sidewalk area, but I have to admit I was a bit sad to see the wildflower meadow go. It was probably nice for bees etc. I'm a bit weird - I like things a little bit wild in Nature. Anyone know what the flowers were? I saw mauve/blue ones and a few pink ones.
Ironically it wasn’t any sort of wildflower meadow, it was just an abandoned and unloved suburban plot dragging down the security and values of all the nearby properties. (Fortunately there are millions of square miles of natural wildflower meadows all over the country so don’t worry yourself too much! )😁🖖
Thank you for protecting your lungs by wearing that mask/respirator. I watch a lot of people who are doing good things like you do (cleaning up lots and yards that people have abandoned and/or can't take care of themselves and can't afford to hire someone to do it for them), and far too many of them don't mask up and are breathing in all that dust and particles and who knows what kinds of chemicals that may be on the ground? Yes, I believe there was a house or some kind of structure there at one time, otherwise it would be pointless to have steps and a sidewalk leading into the lot!
Have We seen this extra wide lawnmower before? Fantastic, really powerful at getting through that grass. Loved that you could walk it along that slope when you first started mowing. Nice Job! 🎉
Hi Fill Why did you choose Toro over other brands? I’m trying to narrow down before I buy. I have a gravely/ hustler dealer near me but I like to hear other opinions. Thanks!
There is a lot of badge engineering that goes on these days, most gardening equipment is Asian manufactured and then badged up to suit whichever country it’s going to..
Great job - I'm always surprised that the neighbors NEVER mow/trim - esp if someone in the neighborhood has a riding lawn mower - it keeps the critter level down big time to keep it shorter/safer for neighborhood kids, pets, etc.
I agree 100%, I see Fill's lawncare and others everywhere, and the surrounding neighbors rarely even come out to say thank you! They will benefit from Fill's generosity! Really sad! Maybe they'll go and cut the branches, I noticed an old tree house ladder, kids play there.
Hopefully now the worst of it has been done it may help them to keep it looking good. As you say, if only so their properties don’t suffer value wise. I’d just be happy not looking at this mess every day.
Now that the whole place is done, the neighbors can take turns mowing the place during the spring, summer, and fall. I see five neighbors , and they do it in the growing season and take turns every other week.
I have never seen a street sweeper attachment before, I love it!!! Sure made the street look nice and neat after using that. It amazes me how people can just let lots and yards grow up so tall. You would think the city would have done something about it by now. Great job
Next time, could you consider at least to leave an patch of vegetation? You did an great job and it looks way better but that destroyed living space for insects. Just leave a rectangle of living space, nature will love that :)
This is one remarkable job, the beauty that you have created, out of a mess , is unbelievable. I think you would be a perfect candidate for teaching kids and adults on the art of giving. Many would benefit from your teaching.🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸💯😇
What a beautiful job you did! Talk about making a silk purse out of a sow's ear -- you definitely did that! And when I saw you without your mask, I was about to really scold you, but then you did one better -- that is better than just a mask. Remember I scolded you before and I can do that because I'm probably old enough to be your great grandmother!!! You do such great work that's it's great to see you in what I consider a "teaching" position. Wish some of the younger people would take a page or two from your book!
I love that new “broom “. At 83 I still mow and take care of my own yard. At times it’s a little bit stressful but overall it makes me feel good and thankful that God gives me the strength to continue working on my yard. You do wonderful work. May God bless you and your family!
I was surprised you mulched the lawn this time. Yours is at the top of this list because you clean up the yard like very few do. I really like that sweeper adapter.
That big ol' tree is magnificent! Imagine how old it must be... older than that building, for sure. It would be a fun project to restore that property.
Every time I watch your video I think of my youngest son. Your hair is the same color as he is and you don't see that very often. You really make me miss him so much. You're doing a great job and you are appreciated
Do you think there was a house at one point? Let me know!
Yes
I'm sure that there was a house there at one point. You can look at the location on Historic Aerials. Most of Northern Idaho has Aerials that date back to the 1950s.
Yes
Yes, I believe it was. It probably burned down a long time ago.
I just checked the location. The house was there in 1954, possibly standing by 1975, and gone by 1981.
I love the street sweeper gizmo!!
It’s no surprise how much nicer places could be if everyone did their little bit with their own homes and kept the neighbourhood tidy and litter free
I fully agree EG!
Out of all the lawn channels I watch, Fill is the only one that actually collects the grass, debris and discards it all. You lead by example Fill. Keep up the good work!
No he’s not. Many others collect clippings also.
Agree that many others collect the cuttings too...❤
Tim the lawnmower man collects every blade of grass and weed and disposes of them 🎉
Others collect. Blade Mate, and Top Notch do, just off the top of my head. I do prefer that they do but some just done have the room to take it with them.
That’s why I watch him too! So many just leave the long clippings and when they edge they just shovel large dirt chunks back on the lawn. This guy has real pride with his work.
Hey Fill, Lise here, my phone was on the fritz so I was using my husband's phone ( which he did not aporeciate) anyway beautiful work. I today edged my sidewalk with a pair of scissors. I did an okay job however it winds up looking like a moat ( like 2 inches wide) but it's now done. Everyone loves that automatic broom. I want it. I love Foxglove. It'll grow back. Keep on truckin.
All the lovely flowers which attract insects mowed down. I know they will grow again, but this lot was such a haven for wildlife!
Terrific job sir. Good on you for wearing protective gear. You, young man, are an example of hard work and show that by helping your community.
Thank you
We need mor people of any age just like Fill 🎉
Yes, continue to work safely. Learn from other people’s experiences. I just finished using Ivarest for poison ivy. Should have worn long sleeves.
Okay but what if there's a bunny Nest or kittens or something? Yes I'm a hypochondriac I know
I wish he would wear a mask! His act of kindness is wonderful although he should take care of himself as well! ❤️👍🏼
Terrific job, Sir. Much thanks.
Isn't is remarkable that NO ONE bothered about this mess - for YEARS - until this young man took the initiative. Its head-shaking.
I LOVE WATCHING YOUR BROOM!!
My favorite part was the stair reveal early in the video. It was better than any deep see treasure hunt documentary! Beautiful find! Nice job. I'm a fan!
You definitely earned a “thank you” from all neighbors.
Wow what a good improvement. I hated to see the beautiful flowers gone. I’m sure someone lived there and enjoyed their space. Thanks for taking us along on your journeys.
The neighbors should have taken the flowering plants before you had to destroy them. Such a shame.
@@smc130If the neighbors wanted them, they could have gone over and taken them before. This property has not been maintained for awhile.
@@courbry123right lol
Okay neighbors, Fill’s done the hard work, now it’s up to you to do the rest, including the future maintenance.

Hi Ej, Why doesn’t the city keep these sidewalks regularly mown and cleared? Don’t local homeowners pay any sort of rate for amenities maintenance?
Great Job! Bet the neighborhood loved it! That rosary sweeper is an awesome tool! Bless you for the help you give to your community!
"Rotary" rosarys are for priests.
It is a clever gadget isn’t it?

Even healthier than this year!

Because it's trespassing that's why.

You have all the kit you need to tackle any job. I’m constantly amazed at what you bring out from the back of your trailer. Your brush is amazing, I so need one, and your latest ride on mower that cuts weeds as high as you and almost as thick as shrubs, where do you get them from? I’m in awe, as they don’t look cheap but do a fantastic job! Yours is the only channel I view.
Like your positive vibe this time, Fills. Nice! Also, good on you for getting the job nicely done. You have a lot of great, appropriate tools to help you do the job right!🎉🎉😊
It is a oddly calming thing to watch you clean up these yards. Thank you for the work you do, and for the zen it provides.
Great shoveling, but it’s sad seeing all those beautiful flowers get mowed down :(
I honestly thought there may have been a tiny house in there! But you did a wonderful job on that beautiful piece of property!! God Bless You and Yours 🦋🌼🦋
First time subscriber 😊
Wow! So much better!! 🎉 I'm certain the neighbors and community are thankful for all that hard work that you did to make the area so much nicer 🎉🎉 34:49
My Favorite lawn guy. I love your work.
What a blight to the neighborhood that property was! That was a lot of work a quite a challenge!!!! Such an enjoyable video from start to finish! What an amazing transformation!!
What a wonderful transformation. I’m sure the neighbors were your biggest cheerleaders. You make your family and your online family proud.
What an amazing transformation from overgrown to mown. If you ever consider a career change, urban archeologists could learn from your skills discovering and redefining the stairway.
Thanks for protecting your self by wearing gloves, eye protection and a breathing filter. You need not expose yourself to molds, fungus and other parasites that might be waiting dormant in dry leaves and tall grasses. Wishing you and your bride a blessed week filled with gentle rains, seasonally appropriate weather and restful evenings together. Peace brother
That power broom does a super job!
Thanks for protecting your lungs from all that dust, dirt & debris!👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
I have never seen anybody else use the power broom. Very very smart idea and I'm sure money well spent! I will have to admit at one point I thought maybe there might be a house back there, but you did say it was an empty lot. Nice job!
Good job as always cleaning up the neighborhood to make a safer environment for everyone. Thank you for the entertaining video 😊😊😊
You made such a big difference on this empty lot. The neighbors are very happy. My favorite part is the cleaning up the curb with your brush equipment.
I liked how you cleaned up the gutter of the streett and the sidewalk area, but I have to admit I was a bit sad to see the wildflower meadow go. It was probably nice for bees etc. I'm a bit weird - I like things a little bit wild in Nature. Anyone know what the flowers were? I saw mauve/blue ones and a few pink ones.
Ironically it wasn’t any sort of wildflower meadow, it was just an abandoned and unloved suburban plot dragging down the security and values of all the nearby properties. (Fortunately there are millions of square miles of natural wildflower meadows all over the country so don’t worry yourself too much! )😁🖖
That looks LEAGUES better! Wow!
As for the house, it doesn't take as long as you think for nature to reclaim something we've built.
Awesome as usual! The Stihl trimmer is really impressive too! Oh, and I bet there was a house that got storm damaged or fire damaged in the past.
Thanks 👍
Good afternoon everyone hope you are having a good day. Greetings from the USA. Good job
Thank you for protecting your lungs by wearing that mask/respirator. I watch a lot of people who are doing good things like you do (cleaning up lots and yards that people have abandoned and/or can't take care of themselves and can't afford to hire someone to do it for them), and far too many of them don't mask up and are breathing in all that dust and particles and who knows what kinds of chemicals that may be on the ground? Yes, I believe there was a house or some kind of structure there at one time, otherwise it would be pointless to have steps and a sidewalk leading into the lot!
And ears - excellent, you wear ear protection. Prevention is key. (Doing audiograms was part of my job in a shipyard. )
Great job and I know you have made the neighbors very happy. Great video and I'm in love with that power broom!
Thank you . Great work.
Have We seen this extra wide lawnmower before?
Fantastic, really powerful at getting through that grass.
Loved that you could walk it along that slope when you first started mowing.
Nice Job! 🎉
You need a grass slasher or power trimmer mower, That would be awesome. Something about those babies!
Great job! My favorite part was the leaf clean-up and curb/sidewalk edging. ❤
Hi Fill
Why did you choose Toro over other brands? I’m trying to narrow down before I buy. I have a gravely/ hustler dealer near me but I like to hear other opinions. Thanks!
I have a Toro. It's pretty good. I think the Gravely is the way to go though. If I had it to do over I'd probably get one of those.
@@nathanscott7910 why would you prefer the gravely? Just curious as I like them both
@@stephenpaul9165 Gravley for me too, just a great tool , we used them since the 80s
My grandfather and father had Gravely. It was all great equipment when we had it 1960s-early 2000s).
There is a lot of badge engineering that goes on these days, most gardening equipment is Asian manufactured and then badged up to suit whichever country it’s going to..
Great job - I'm always surprised that the neighbors NEVER mow/trim - esp if someone in the neighborhood has a riding lawn mower - it keeps the critter level down big time to keep it shorter/safer for neighborhood kids, pets, etc.
I fully agree! (I live in Berkshire U.K. and we all help each other to keep the neighbourhood spic and span).
I always wonder why the neighbors don’t chip in to help: a property in this condition affects their property value.
Completely agree. Just too busy watching daytime TV and eating chocolate I expect..
I agree 100%, I see Fill's lawncare and others everywhere, and the surrounding neighbors rarely even come out to say thank you! They will benefit from Fill's generosity! Really sad! Maybe they'll go and cut the branches, I noticed an old tree house ladder, kids play there.
Too lazy!
Hopefully now the worst of it has been done it may help them to keep it looking good. As you say, if only so their properties don’t suffer value wise. I’d just be happy not looking at this mess every day.
Now that the whole place is done, the neighbors can take turns mowing the place during the spring, summer, and fall. I see five neighbors , and they do it in the growing season and take turns every other week.
As always another GREAT job. Thank again for taking us along for job. God Bless you and yours 🙏🙏🙏🙏
Good job and God bless 🙏
I have never seen a street sweeper attachment before, I love it!!! Sure made the street look nice and neat after using that. It amazes me how people can just let lots and yards grow up so tall. You would think the city would have done something about it by now. Great job
Привіт з України🇺🇦🇺🇦💙💛
Thank you for sharing... God bless you and your family 💞
Next time, could you consider at least to leave an patch of vegetation? You did an great job and it looks way better but that destroyed living space for insects. Just leave a rectangle of living space, nature will love that :)
Great job!
This is one remarkable job, the beauty that you have created, out of a mess , is unbelievable. I think you would be a perfect candidate for teaching kids and adults on the art of giving. Many would benefit from your teaching.🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸💯😇
What a beautiful job you did! Talk about making a silk purse out of a sow's ear -- you definitely did that! And when I saw you without your mask, I was about to really scold you, but then you did one better -- that is better than just a mask. Remember I scolded you before and I can do that because I'm probably old enough to be your great grandmother!!! You do such great work that's it's great to see you in what I consider a "teaching" position. Wish some of the younger people would take a page or two from your book!
I love that new “broom “. At 83 I still mow and take care of my own yard. At times it’s a little bit stressful but overall it makes me feel good and thankful that God gives me the strength to continue working on my yard. You do wonderful work. May God bless you and your family!
Wow! That was quite a job! You did awesome as usual. Thank you Fill!!!!
I was surprised you mulched the lawn this time.
Yours is at the top of this list because you clean up the yard like very few do.
I really like that sweeper adapter.
It is so satisfying to watch your videos. It's so nice to watch it without music. You are a hard worker. Fantastic job. Watching from USA 🇺🇸 Michigan
You have turned a jungle into resptability. 👍🙌good for the neighbours as well. Lawn instead of greass... 😊WOW.
That big ol' tree is magnificent! Imagine how old it must be... older than that building, for sure. It would be a fun project to restore that property.
Every time I watch your video I think of my youngest son. Your hair is the same color as he is and you don't see that very often. You really make me miss him so much. You're doing a great job and you are appreciated
