Like many other Stapleton homes, Jason does not have much of a yard.  In fact, there is even less than he started with.  \u201cWe had a patio put in two falls ago,\u201d said Gerber.  \u201cSo, really all we have is the tiny little section in the back, and the small section in the front.\u201d  By looking at the yard, it would seem to be a pretty simple mow.  But not according to Jason.  \u201cIt\u2019s almost too small.  I mean, we have one annoying tree back there, and I have to circle around it, duck under its little braches, back into the gate.   Then, I have to reverse my steps and go back the opposite way, usually getting a branch in my face.  I mean, I just want to get rid of the whole back yard and turn it into a patio.\u201d\n<!--more-->\nGerber says that is likely not to happen, however.  \u201cMy wife likes having the little bit of green back there.  And yes, it is nice to have, but she\u2019s not the one struggling to mow that small patch right underneath the tree.  Do they make mini-lawn mowers?  Now, that would be a solution.  I know there are weed wackers, but those can be really annoying to handle.\u201d  Gerber says he will continue suck it up and do the job.  \u201cIt has to be done.  Until that tree grows taller than seven feet off the ground, it is going to continue to be a pain in the ass.\u201d  This story will be filed under \u201cStapleton People Problems.\u201d\n]]>\t\t<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\t\t\t\t<![CDATA[]]>\t\t<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_coblocks_attr":"","_coblocks_dimensions":"","_coblocks_responsive_height":"","_coblocks_accordion_ie_support":"","_genesis_hide_title":false,"_genesis_hide_breadcrumbs":false,"_genesis_hide_singular_image":false,"_genesis_hide_footer_widgets":false,"_genesis_custom_body_class":"","_genesis_custom_post_class":"","_genesis_layout":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[36],"tags":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-6340","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","6":"category-issue-127","7":"entry"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6340","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=6340"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6340\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=6340"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=6340"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=6340"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
