That actually reminds me about a house I lived in FL years ago. There was a 90+ year old lady that lived across the street from me that would come out just before the sun set and pick weeds out of her yard all night long, til almost sun rise. She did it at night because it was cooler out side.
This was way before I was doing online stuff back when I was just a few years out of high school. I had a large lawn service then and offered many times to cut her grass for free and she never wanted us to. She was happy pulling her weeds..
I totally forgot about that old lady. She died a year or two later think she was 97 or something like that and could stand bent over for hours at a time pulling weeds and cutting her grass with scissors.
Was crazy stuff.
