An update to the update

Lawn Alex finished at 4:30 and loaded up his trailer with 12+ bags of cuttings and his mower (although, he could have gotten quite a bit more in each bag - ah well, it's a guy thing), and I was still cutting through the kudzu-like viney crud from the neighbor's mess out back along the fence, and their creeping raspberry canes just to get to my Privets.

It's a very good thing that there is so much growing season ahead of us, because trimming the garbage plants and the hedge to get to what is viable has revealed a lot of issues where the neighbor's insidious trailing garbage has choked out the Privets and left much of the tall growth very sparse.

There's a lot left to accomplish, but at least the lawn is mowed and next steps can be taken. :)
