Did you grow up doing this and so it has sentimental appeal for you? My Grandmother lives out in the country and has a lot of grass that has to stay cut - but she has one of those lawnmowers that you drive (maybe that's what you're talking about in this post?)which makes the whole process easier.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3622512175933213050.post-55987673858587090482012-05-31T02:08:53.739-04:002012-05-31T02:08:53.739-04:00Christ Lady!

Canada golderod, (which i've never heard of?)Canada thistle, Canadian Geese shitting all over the lawn! They're like the neighbor with the engine in a bathtub on the front lawn! :)<br /><br />That looks like a wooden handle scythe? I had an aluminum handled one once but it no one can find it anymore. I think i did a sufficient job of getting rid of it! :)Kenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17697779460254600164noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3622512175933213050.post-16944223004756295312012-05-30T22:09:42.238-04:002012-05-30T22:09:42.238-04:00Well I don't own a scythe, because of course &...Well I don't own a scythe, because of course "because for some reason you don't live in medieval Europe" (LOLOL).

And the whole time all I could think was "Queen Holly the Magnificent did this with real rocks. in the woods. up a hill. She is clearly a superior race of human than me" because that shit was HARD.Kphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02762687534740052256noreply@blogger.com
