"Neighborhood" to me means a larger area. I am only talking about four
houses, mine and three neighbors. All have kinds and pets. It is a
blessing to have good neighbors. However, please note that "not doing
something" requires no money or effort.

Good on you and your neighbours Newbie. I really can't understand the
obssession to weed feed and mow grass that doesn't support a single
cow/horse/goat or even a rabbit or 6.
