I always have very mixed emotions about that first mowing of spring. It's good to be outside working on a mild spring day, but mowing will continue for several months and many of those mowing days will not be so mild.Marvinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03374936227735741953noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3386593357064408531.post-67682127859368478702011-03-12T20:56:35.131-06:002011-03-12T20:56:35.131-06:00Well, it certainly won't be long before you ne...Well, it certainly won't be long before you need to mow or you'll never find your mower in all that grass. <br />I agree with Betsy, I think it is a raccoon; little devil! why don't you give HIM your lawn mower and put him to good use?Tracyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12795817810030681267noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3386593357064408531.post-81766939141511911612011-03-12T19:54:44.146-06:002011-03-12T19:54:44.146-06:00Hi Pat, I just found you when I was leaving a comm...Hi Pat, I just found you when I was leaving a comment on Jinksy's SS post. I am writing today because my SS post is has to do with Summers, Arkansas and my Johnson relatives, if you are interested. <br /><br />I really enjoy your blog and am going to follow you.

My Henbit is getting excited along with the wild onions.

I'll admit that I don't look forward to mowing our lawn. Perhaps if it were a little more level I wouldn't mind so much. Ah, well, mowing is still better than shoveling snow!Georgehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06923630536753873113noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3386593357064408531.post-37690209276171183952011-03-12T07:40:24.516-06:002011-03-12T07:40:24.516-06:00My yard, front and back, is overrun with happily-s...My yard, front and back, is overrun with happily-spreading weeds at the moment, but the bermuda sod is still dormant. Didn't do a pre-emergent and now it's too late.

She "mowed" people's yards.Yes, she cleaned up the goat pies, too. BUt no fuel or electricity was used, ecept hauling I guess. I understand it took about a day to "mow" an average sized yard. She would get business permits as most cities to not allow farm animals inside city limits.And she did not have to feed them on the day they "worked."NitWit1https://www.blogger.com/profile/07035004840443397537noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3386593357064408531.post-24265473106887339632011-03-11T23:35:23.826-06:002011-03-11T23:35:23.826-06:00Sigh.. it looks nice to me.

Get a big trap and put some food inside of it.... You'll catch him--but will then need to take him far away --into the country somewhere and let him out.... Good Luck...<br /><br />Yes---spring is coming and YES, we will be mowing soon.... <br /><br />Hugs,<br />BetsyBetsy Banks Adamshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16223591156634767330noreply@blogger.com
