DUMB LAWN CARE NEWS: PART ONE

A woman in New York state who has refused to mow her lawn for four years is going to court to fend off her angry neighbors, who say the lawn is decreasing their property values. The town government ruled that the woman is in violation of local law and sent a crew to mow the lawn, but a New York Supreme Court judge signed an order to keep the mowers away, at least temporarily. The woman says she is not growing a lawn but a garden, and has a right to keep a mower from ruining her herbs and flowers.
