Average size yard in Frisco is $25, I have seen some business cards advertising for $20 per yard.

I would say only about 1 out of 10 people mow their lawn up here.

A good rule of angling philosophy is not to interfere with another fisherman's ways of being happy, unless you want to be hated.

Got fed up with all the equipment and room it took to store it , keeping everything running became a job in itself plus keeping fuel on hand . This year have a crew doing everything , have more time to drink cold beer .

Here is south Irvin we prefer random packs of roaming goats. They are full service lawn care grass, shrubs and fertilizer plus Cabrito.
