Note the parking lot behind it. I'm betting there's a good spring or creek that goes down the draw to the left where they get water. They just built on the edge of the cliff.

One day when I'm laying on my deathbed and looking back on my life, I'm not going to give a damn about whether or not I kept my grass mowed.

Do you know where that is Dan? Is it even real? These days you never know.

Greece. There are several peaks so adorned in that land.

Mowing grass is the most diabolic useless work ever created by man.

I love to mow. It beats the hell out of shoveling snow!

My sentiments exactly .

You spend time, money and energy trying to make it grow.

Then you spend time, money and energy cutting it down.

Makes no sense.

Like ironing underwear.

If you can afford that house, you sure won't be doing your own mowing...or cleaning...or cooking...or...

Look again. Drive up rear.


America is (supposed to be) a Republic, NOT a democracy. Learn the difference, help end the lie. Fear a government that fears your guns.

I'd rather have to mow than risk falling off my front porch 500 feet to my death.

Getting drunk and pissing off the porch could be hazardous.

It's in Greece. There are 20+ monasteries in the area. The most famous is Monastery of the Holy Trinity where they filmed James Bond's For Your Eye Only.

My solution for not mowing would be moving back to Central NV. I hate cutting grass. Couldn't believe people purposely grew it out there creating unnecessary work for themselves.

Made a pact with meself some years back about getting drunk, falling down and hurting meself, therefore this would NOT be a place that I could reside.
