Sounds like time for an ophthalmologist. Vision problem. As with plenty of others here and everywhere it seems.

A lawn is simply part of the garden.
Sounds like a question for an historian. The English manor house was surrounded by grounds, outbuildings and fields.

Over time that ideal was stripped of the supporting structures, and the grounds reduced to a strip of grass around the 'real' estate. Our last remaining connection to when our hominid precursors descended from the trees into the savanna. It's understandable how it's so deep-rooted (heh).

What is it you do to improve your neighborhood? Tackle the alleyway? Dig out the grass growing in the street? Elderly neighbors who don’t have the energy to attend to tougher tasks? Fence repairs?
That reminds me, I raked the leaves out of the fence-row and left them on the sidewalk out at the street. I need to get a 5x7 tarp so I don't have to lift it all into a wheelbarrow.
