Hi! Welcome back to our little homestead!
I wanted to share with you about the new mower we bought last summer. We had an antique rotary mower that was doing an okay job. It cut the grass fairly thoroughly, but needed to be dismantled, cleaned, sharpened and oiled. That was more than we could handle at the time, so we ran out to Lowe's in New Lenox and bought this new rotary mower.
The best thing about it was the ease of assembly. Matthew and I sat down on the front porch together and opened the box. He was able to put it together fairly quickly while I held the instructions and quietly watched. What a great self-esteem building experience for a, then, seven-year-old boy! After all, none of his friends could say they had built their family's rotary mower!
What if we all stopped using gas powered mowers? Less pollution and more exercise. That would be nice.
ReplyDeleteThis thing as a breeze to use! Neighbors keep offering to let us use their gas mowers. Say they pity us... LOL! I pity them paying for gas! It's possible to mow with one hand... unless the grass is high.
