Sharon wants me to get our walking mower fixed where she can use it. I've already mowed once with the rider, and will probably mow again tomorrow.

Cool

My weed lawn is growin' good, it's green. I would love to have a nice lawn but sewer here is so dang costly you cannot afford to water. I have a sprinkler system but water is cheap enough but every gallon is charged as sewer too. I may drive shallow well as there is one permitted here but never "inspected". The other option is to irrigate from the lake but the lake water is so low I would need a trash pump to do that. The veggies get watered every couple days and we got a tomato turning pink, won't be long!

I did the same thing last Sunday.. with temps in the upper 70's for the firt time since last Oct 2010, I primed it and started the 8 yr old lawn mower on the first pull, amazing.. Also started the weed wacker and put the brand new, never used, last minute purchase, two stage snow thrower to bed for the summer but not too far from the front of the garage so when I open the door, mother nature can see it sitting there ready to do battle with her winter tantrums !!

Now I gotta find someone ? to use all these things at the appropriate time..
