A day in the garden: help Javier in Las Cruces
Javier, 71, can no longer manage the yard after a storm; we're looking for helpers with chainsaws and rakes.

I'm 71 and I have lived in this house in Las Cruces for 33 years. After the storm in July, two large branches and a fallen fence have blocked the back door and the garden path. I can no longer manage them myself because of my hip replacement.
The council has told me it will be ten weeks before they can send someone. I'd feel much safer if it were cleared sooner.
Help needed: a small team to cut, stack and carry away branches. I'll provide tea, sandwiches and the green waste bags. A few hours will do.

Wishing you the best, Javier. Looking forward to the next update. After 20 years in teaching I know how hard it's to ask for anything.
Hang in there, Javier. Hope you get there
