Push Mowers as an Option
Alrighty then. I have to admit, in this particular climate, in the spring when the grass grows like nobody’s business, a push mower just ‘doesn’t cut it" , if you’ll pardon the pun. Now that things are finally heating up and drying out, the grass has slowed significantly. If you’ve been considering abandoning that noisy gas-using thing you’ve been using, this is the time. Hang on to the old mower for next spring.
The key with a push mower is to keep the blades sharp, and mow when the grass is good and dry. The benefits are - you get a really good workout - how good depends upon the size of your lawn - you don’t use precious gasoline, the noise is negligible compared with the gas mower, and your lawn is still getting mown.
It’s a thought. And just a note from me - I think for those of you who are sticking with the noisy gas powered mowers, consider getting together and picking a day to mow, would you? I hear mowers going all day, all weekend long. There’s a relaxing noise. Does anyone else notice that?
