Re: Mowing
Judging by the forecast for Bugtussle over the next few days, mowing here will be cardio in an outdoor steam bath by Tuesday.

Re: Mowing
I don't mind in the spring, but when it's 95 degrees and 100% humidity I really start to hate it.

Re: Mowing
My back yard is like 25'x25'. I'm thinking about getting an old school manual lawnmower, with the rotating blade/wheel/axle thing.
I love mowing mostly because of the way the yard looks after it's over.

Living in the land of low humidity (it's 17% right now), a midwest summer would likely kill me these days. 95 degrees with 8% humidity is an entirely different world.Fat Strat wrote:I don't mind in the spring, but when it's 95 degrees and 100% humidity I really start to hate it.

the two extremes here...winter, summer can be pretty brutal...but fall and spring can be pretty nice...sometimes

Re: Mowing
I'm so jealous of you right now. Back when I was in college, this was the time of year when I would head west to your territory. I would love to be in Boulder right now.Living in the land of low humidity (it's 17% right now), a midwest summer would likely kill me these days. 95 degrees with 8% humidity is an entirely different world.

Re: Mowing
I mostly mow the lawn these days to justify whenever my wife brings up an argument that I need more exercise & less TV. I hate it (especially days like yesterday when it was freaking humid like smalltown Coimbatore,India) but I love it when I'm done. Infact, I was so happy with the look last night that I treated the lawn to a 10 min water sprinkling for a good job...
