Lawnmovers
The grass is coming in quite nicely! **pictures to come later** However, it seems its now time to mow it. The question is, what do we get for a mower? A small non-powered push mover and then just rake the clippings? A small gas push mover, or an electric? There is something about the electric movers that really scare me though. How many people have run over that cord? Not a good thought.

We have a non-powered push mower and my husband is in love with it. It's also nice to not have to yell over the noise. I just read that leaving the clippings is the best form of fertilizer, so we even stopped the raking.
Good luck!
Get a reel mower. No maintenance. No batteries. No gas. No cords. No sweat :) They are lighweight and your neighbors will love you for it. We have a couple July postings about our first experience and lessons learned about using this type of mower. Enjoy!www.pachamamahouse.blogspot.com
A non-powered push mower? I’d sooner get a goat! :-)
I have too large a yard to consider the electric models seriously, but you might do well with one – if you don’t run over the cord!
Good luck. Decisions, decisions …
LOL at "i'd sooner get a goat"
we have a reel mower for ~0.25 acre... the only caveat is that you have to mow more often, but for a small yard it would definately be the way to go. and um, it does involve sweat. ;-)
