The first official mow of the year is in the books.
The service shop dropped it off a couple weeks ago and I had to wait for some rainy weather to finally clear out.
I am finally able to start clearing some of the areas "post construction" that had grown up a lot. Wish I had a before pic of this but suffice to say, it was heavily overgrown. This area still has some construction debris, concrete chunks and such in it so I have to walk it first and move stuff or mow around it for now.
Also cleared around the well shed and Barnabas (the big mesquite). I got as close as I could but will have to use the string trimmer for the closer to the tree.
It was a usually time, about an hour and a half and did about three acres. The weather was cool and it was definitely a moment of Zen...until...
Speaking of construction debris, I looked at the mower before I closed the shed doors and thought, "what's wrong with the mower?". Oh crap, a flat tire. Sigh. This mower has never had the tires treated with that awesome green good,, ha, so I will be off to the store soon to get some tire Slime.
There won't be any mowing this weekend because it is supposed to rain all day Saturday so I'll have time to get that and get the tires fixed.
And hey, now I have a concrete driveway to do this type of work on! Can't wait! It will certainly be much easier.
Hope your Easter weekend gets off to a great start!
