I did 2 miles at a few minutes after 10:00 this morning.
My grass grows like crazy. My front yard could be mowed every 3 days...back yard not much different. The sun beats the piss out of my house too....no trees either. Guess we've had just enough rain and muggy weather.

I mowed before vacation last thursday, didnt really need it but was leaving for 10 days so I cut it. Guess if I hadnt it would have been 3 weeks.
Kinda nice to not have to mow...but I like mowing as it gives me a reason to get outta earshot of the ungrateful wife and kids.

Did just over two last night as my dinners was sloshing around in my stomach. Coulda stopped and puked. ...probably 3+ tonite and again tomorrow. Feels good to get that sweat goin.

I live in southern Ohio about 45 miles from Kentucky and 35 miles from West Virginia.
I mowed the grass a notch lower than usual the day before I left for Virginia Beach (Saturday) and returned home on Firday afternoon and had some seriously high grass in the front yard......had to set the mower up a notch more than the usual to avoid a mess.
