While mowing the lawn and my brain wandered, thoughts, mostly random, flitted across my mind.
• I'm glad weeds are mostly green, they fit in well with the rest of the lawn
• Don't smile while mowing, you end up with a mouthful of grass, leaves and love bugs
• Thank you neighbor for bringing your dog to walk on my lawn, it's much more attractive than the 2 acre empty lot next door
• If I use any gear but 1st on my new lawn mower it about yanks my arms out of their sockets
• Deer flies travel as the same speed as the lawn mower and are able to bite you as you crawl along
• Avoid mowing near the bee trees they're full of, yes, your guessed it, BEES
• But it does look nice when it's done
It looks excellent, and I enjoyed your "Lawn Notes"
ReplyDeleteGrowing up I mowed our clover lawn with a push mower barefooted and would experience at least one or two bee stings. However, the cool grass on bare feet was worth the sting. Tough feet of a kid.
I find lawn-mowing particularly conducive to thought, especially creative thought. Unfortunately I no longer have to mow any lawns....
ReplyDeleteWatch out for those bees! :)
