Are you hooked up with HOME-n-GRDN yet?   I posted something in there, but  
maybe the intermediate hubs have long gone dropped it?

MEANWHILE, I've got a turf question for you.

My shop shares a little laneway with a neighbor:

Neighbour is on the left, I'm in the right.  BUT, legally the whole  
laneway belongs on the neighbour's property line.

I use it to park my vehicle there for the day and to access my back door  
beside the propane tanks.

For several years, I've been mowing down the grass and weeds with a  
portable (electric) weed wacker.  I used an electric mower once as well.   
But quite frankly I'm getting quite tired of the whole process.  Except  
for repairing and repainting their exterior wall on the left, they don't  
do anything about the weeds that crop up.  Apparently, I'm the only one  
using the laneway to access my back door on occassion. But they blocked  
off their door (the black one at the very end) and never use it.  So, why  
would they even care about the grass/weeds, right?

Is there an inexpensive way to get rid of the grass and weeds once and for  
all?  And don't say Roundup. :/
