Can't stay cool when you have to mow and edge and all that goes with it, an acre. Not looking forward to it.

Thats for only about 2/3 of it. I have lots os close trees and many flower beds where the rider won't go between. I have to spend about an hour with a walker to finish it out. Before I got the rider, took me 4 1/2 hours to mow it. It's a jungle or is that jingle?

Kind of sounds like poor planning and design to me. I think Jingle is the correct word you are looking for Jim. I know I went from 2+ hours with my walk behind to about an hour with with rider on .75 acre in town but I dont have any trees in my yard either.

When you live with a landscaper that never walks behind the mower, it is what it is.

Here are some pics that will give you an idea of it. I don't know how many times I have heard, well, if I put a bed here, you will have less grass to mow. I point out that the rider won't go through the opennings and now I have a crooked trail to mow and more weedeating.

Beautiful yard and house Jim. I need to do the landscaping at the house and I am lucky enough to basicly be starting with a blank canvas. The tree and shrubs that were there met an untimely end with a chain saw and my truck because they were to far gone to save.

Thanks. My advice would be to put in gravel for the whole yard.

I have thought about it but the arid land scaping doesnt work to well up here. I am going to send my wife away for a week and bring in the heavy equipment and get it done.
