Yesterday I mowed the yard for the first time this year. The Simplicity (on right) started right up. I used the old gas that had been stored in the can all winter. I need to fill up both gas cans now, as I am out, but I dread doing it because gas is like $3.66 a gallon. It probably takes 4-5 gallons a mowing. I'm thinking about getting some wheel weights so it's not quite so bumpy mowing in high gear.Also, I think I'm going to sell the old riding mower (on left). It is a good mower, but it needs a new battery, and probably new front tires. I will get a new battery, but not sure about the tires. I don't know how much to sell it for.
Last night I started reading Mere Christianity by C.S. Lewis.

Mowing . . .must be spring!
I've read Mere Christinity so many times, I've lost count. Something different every time.
Are you finally going to buy a "Complexity" mower? They've got more switches, knobs and buttons than you'll know what to do with.
Also, yeah, this EXPENSIVE gas works great! You can leave it sit all winter or stagnate in a can, but since we're paying so much, they've made it EXTRA-reliable. Why, it's hard to keep my tractor on the ground after I put that high-dollar go-juice in it!
Carly and I are reading Screwtape letters. It's weird to read, but extremely useful.
