The grass in back has suddenly metamorphosed into a jungle, through which one can glimpse dog turds and enormous dandelion rosettes. I managed to depoop it on my day off but it didn't dry out enough for me to run the mower through it. Meanwhile the neighbors - or more likely their landlord - have propped up and nailed in place the center panel in that makeshift blind they have propped against the chainlink fence. They left a deposit from one of their dogs affixed to what is now the top.
