Should a kid run across your yard and trip, then you'll have a tot tort. Fences tend to establish a certain legal protection. That said, the mail delivery professional can do the whole thing without touching a sidewalk. June:

Tree, it will amuse you to know that I was sure I recognized a derelict house from Port Townsend, which sits just inside the Puget Sound in Washington State. But all that snow -- well, it's more likely New England -- or maybe Pennsylvania. Tree, your comment that each yard is its own world is fascinating, given the spareness and conformity among the yards. That spareness makes each bit that's a little out of place or odd all the more poignant. Has anyone noticed that the yards that used to be open for children to roam through at will are now almost all fenced in? Go down an alley in a modest suburb sometime and take note.

Just took a quick look and will return when I have more time. Some of his photos have an odd familiarity to them and I see he's spent time in New England so maybe that's why. Some are depressing as hell to me. June, thank you and I like what you wrote about taking pride in yards and such. It's intriguing how each yard is it's own little world. I hope to spend tomorrow checking out photo editing programs. Thanks again for all the info on that. Keystone beer. Well that brought back repressed high school memories. Thanks for the link, D.
