Clear storm damage from Carlos's garden in Albuquerque
Garden rescue day in Albuquerque: bring gloves and a rake.

I'm 86 and I have lived in this house in Albuquerque for 23 years. After the storm in August, 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 poor eyesight.
The council has told me it will be six 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.
I hope life is good to you.
