I read an article yesterday in the Murrieta local newspaper about a 75 year old woman who has been cleaning up abandoned/foreclosed homes for 2 years. Two years ago, she was taking a walk and after seeing so many foreclosed homes, she resolved to better the aesthetic quality of the neighborhood with weed whacker and gardening gloves in hand. She retired yesterday due to family pressure, though.

"Maybe they think I need to be knitting or something, but I'd rather do this."

I love it!
