Here’s one not related to communications! About three years ago my wife and I decided not to cut a section of our lawn. Now, our yard is two acres of which we did mow about one in three quarters acres. We decided to make about a quarter of an acre into a wild flower area. When we did it it was because we wanted the wild flowers. Today, it seems like it would be a great way to save energy (less mowing) and make a statement about saving fuel and our environment.

Today we have wild flowers growing and it looks great! We cut the perimeter with nice curves so our “island of flowers” has a neat style. we’ve noticed more animal life (turkeys, rabbits, birds, etc.) are using the flower, wild grass area as well.

I really think that this would be a great initiative for the “yards” of America! Leave a section of your lawn wild! You will be saving energy and creating a little different piece of nature on your property! Happy Birthday America!
