I live in Oregon so I guess I’m supposed to call it a Curb strip or Parking strip but come on, road verge, the aussies got it right.
Aside from looking pretty lame it annoys the crap out of me every time I have to mow it. So it’s out; mulch, tumbleweed and some desert grass are on their way in.
You can see my initial test with and edging spade. After an hour of that it was clear some gas powered 2-stroke engines would be required.
