i just want to comment about the yards in our neighborhood. there are several yards in our addition that the owners are not taking care of. weeds, not watering so most of their grass is dead. etc. i take pride in my home and that includes our yard. if you dont want to do it for yourself, please take in consideration of others and the resale factor. it is ashame that you buy a house and not take care of your yard. maybe you should have thought about a condo or townhome if you didnt want to do yard work. its just part of being a homeowner. nobody enjoys it, but it has to be done.

I second that!!!!

I totally agree! Half of the yards in this neighborhood are horrible looking and it is embarrasing!! They need to have violations against them by the HOA!!!!! It is not fail to those of us who do keep our places looking nice!!
