And lawns, the most useless thing that can be grown, unless one is using goats and sheep to mow them.

That's what I've thought for years. All they do is take up money and time (to fertilize and water, and then to mow).

When I lived in the mountains last summer and went on hikes all over the Sierras, it struck me that we cut down forests and make housing developments. And then create parks to look somewhat like the natural forest that once existed and even do the same on a smaller level in our yards.

I like God's meadows better than a lawn and His bushes and trees better than any manicured garden.

I think he does too, for he will talk to you, while you are in the flowers and food, but cussing is what I associate with lawns.
