Dear Amy: At what hour on weekend mornings is it reasonable to start running leaf blowers and lawn mowers? We have a neighbor who begins before 8 a.m. in an otherwise quiet neighborhood. This sends my husband, who is especially sensitive to sound, out of the house seeking relief. Earplugs aren’t the answer, as both my husband and our neighbor are already wearing them. We’re not early risers and assume others are also attempting to sleep in on the weekends.
