LOL!! Well, I'm thrilled to get to go barefooted, because we had all those nasty sand burrs that we crawled around on all fours pulling up! We still do it, because we still have them, but it's not so bad now and we can run around barefoot.

Unfortunately, I love to walk through fresh cut grass barefooted and invariably, it tatoos my feet green! That's embarrassing when you wear sandals to church!

Sand burrs...these buggers are bad enough to pop bicycle tires...our yard was overrun with them when we moved in...we pulled moving box after moving box-fuls at first. Now we just pull the occassional one.

Poisening them doesn't do any good...the burrs remain in the grass and still hurt!

My brother has big problems with sand burrs in their yard at the beach house. They keep fighting them, but I think that close to the beach it's a losing battle.
