Our landlord sent out some landscapers this week to cut our eucalyptus tree back and off the neighbors house. It was getting really bushy, and covering almost their entire back roof. It looks much better now, although they left a bunch of the leaves and smaller branches on the ground that I will have to clean up.

While they were here, they also did some weeding of the flower beds around the front and the side of the house. They look so much better, but somehow they busted one of the lawn aerator. When the system turns on, we get a flowing shower of water all over our cars sitting in the driveway. The water is so hard it leaves hard water spots on my paint also, and those will ruin a paint job if left on there for too long. I didn’t have time to look at it this morning, so I plan on taking a peek tomorrow to see if it’s something we can just fix on our own, without calling them back out again.

Our whole yard is desert landscaping, and it is so nice not having to worry too much about yard work, but there is still flower beds and pine needles to pick up about once a month. There are even spots on the side of the house where grass is growing up through the rocks. I think it’s from the neighbors when they planted grass seed over the summer. The wind must have picked some up and blew over.
