More work outside the house

Well, I seem to be fascinated by people working here. The man is clipping by hand, the grass "hair-plugs" I featured on an earlier post. Then he moved to trim the lawn in general. There are no power mowers, electric trimmers, gas leaf blowers. etc. Everything is done by hand. The women are sweeping up the "lawn" in front of our house.

Outside our house

I took these pictures of the house across from ours. Notice the short handled shovel on the ground next to the man. Talk about back-breaking work. He is digging up the lawn so it can be resod.



Now it is up to the women to plant little grass plants to resod the lawn. At the end the lawn will look like it had grass "hair" plugs. I like the next two shots showing the women working and the men sitting around. Some things are the same all over!!
