I love the smell of freshly cut grass, particularly this time of the year when it is all nice and thick. Also, mowing the lawn is very therapeutic for me. It's akin to soakin in a hot tub for some chicks.

I agree with this. Why would I would worry about what someone else thinks of my lawn? It's my lawn and I have it cut it how I want it to look.

Ha I am that guy. However I am not the most over the top guy in that regard in my neighborhood. One neighbor cuts his grass every day, yes I said every day, has Grassmasters fertilize once every other week. After cutting the grass he gets on his roof with hos leaf blower to eliminate any clippings that may have landed there.

That is right, brother. I got mine done this afternoon. Made hay while the sun was shining. Then it rained again.

I like to mow, btw. John Deere.

I got mine mowed today. Our soil here is pretty rocky so it drains faster. Only had one moist spot.
