    That's my first world problem right there. My new house has a yard just big enough to where it would be a chore to mow it with a push mower... But too small to justify getting a riding mower.

    My buddy came by with a twin blade riding mower and helped me out... That took him 20 minutes. So that's about 2 hours of pushing I am guessing .

    It's about half an acre, but the backyard does have a huge hump in one corner to elevate the septic for sea level reasons. I like by a canal and river

    That's the backyard, but the front yard is about half the size of the front.

    I need a lawn mower

    That's a bad picture to show the hill but the left corner is small little hill. I don't think I have the heart to lay down 1200+ bucks on a lawn mower :p

    Too rich for my blood
     
    Mike2633 and road_runner Thank this.

    Well, from what I’m hearing you generally know what your doing a week ahead or acouple days ahead. If your on nights they keeps you rolling on nights til your 34. If your on days your on days til your 34. If they have to flop you they’ll give you a day off to flop it. And you can call ahead before your 34 is up. Let them know when your availabile and they’ll set you up.

    That’s not a hill. You wouldn’t even have to get off the tractor to mow that. ;)

    Child labor, man. That's my solution to this kind of dilemma. As long as I make them think it's fun or that they're doing something "grown up," I can get my kids to work like mules.
