Stone Soup by Jan Eliot
Val: I LOVE spring.
Val: Everything is just so fresh...the flowers and trees are so FRAGRANT...
Val: But NOTHING beats the smell of fresh cut grass!!
Holly: HOW much am I getting paid for this?!?
CLUNK!
God. my allergies! Cutting grass is the kiss of doom! Which is why I have the wife cut the grass. Achoo! Thank you. Thank you. Now back to the nap, which is already in progress.
I had to use an old push mower that was so rusty it was a chore to push it up the driveway, much less do the front yard. A power mower would have been so great!
I mowed our grass in circles around our flag pole. Another time I mowed it in diagonals. Our neighbor, who did not like to be “bested”, began mowing his lawn in different directions. My parents got a real hoot out of it.

@somebodyshort: Good call, but somehow I would picture Max rather than Wally as Kilroy. ;-)

@Holly
If you don’t want to deal with the lawn… move into an apartment building.
But if you do have a lawn… get a fake grass carpet or get Lawn-Mower-Tracker you can ride in… it much more FUN!!

And the smell of freshly cut grass is so much sweeter when someone else is cutting it!

Did Holly shoot her mouth off again?

For that I have no idea Holly.

Wally get a self-propelled mulching push mower and throw away the rake. It’s worth it.
