Now 2 days above 80 degrees and the friggin grass is growin like a mo fo! My son in law loaned me one of the giant mowers from one of his schools (he is head of maintenance at a school system). That school hired a lawn service a few years ago and laid off their lawn guy. They had no place to store it so told him he could store it at home and use it. I put it in my pole barn and had a blast with it (steers like a tracked vehicle). I did not want it in the pole barn this winter as that is where I park my truck in the nasty weather and also where I keep the Vette. To make a long story short, he has a friend with some property and parked it there under a tarp. Went over to get it 2 days ago so I can start mowing and.........dude got a divorce and sold the damn mower and its trailer to help pay the lawyer fees! Now the son in law is trying to buy the mower and trailer back from the guy that bought it as he does not want to get fired if and when the school system learns about it. So I gotta find a Craigslist lawn tractor before the lawn turns into a jungle. Can't afford new as I am paying for the new carpet and drywall for my flooded basement, just paid friggin taxes and needing some cash to mod and paint the Vette this summer. Life sure can get messy. |
