Cutting our Grass/Weeds

I had to take a picture of this man cutting our grass/weeds. He uses a long machete knife to cut down the weeds. He was here a few times last time I was here. Every time I see him I think of how tough that work must be. Plus to bend over all the time. It takes him a few days to do the whole yard too! He's out there rain or shine!

I don't know his name but when I first saw him I said good morning to me and he responded in French. He doesn't speak any English and our landlord told me he is from Haiti. It sounds like there are quite a few Haitians that come here for work.

Don't worry, this isn't how everyone does their yard. I have seen lawnmowers at Ross University, but that is the only time I have seen lawnmowers. The apartment next to us has their yard done with a weed wacker. Those weed wackers seems to be the most common way to cut down grass and weeds. I wonder why our landlord just doesn't get a weed wacker for this place. It would be so much easier!
