Doing your own yard work is great exercise and you get both health and savings benefits. I love seeing a DIY maintained yard. Two thumbs up Jerry for taking the challenge head on.
And at our age, the short work sessions is key. I do the same thing.
Would be very interested in hearing how the mower works out over time. I use gas powered for mowing, trimmer, blower and battery for hedger, edger. I do my own small engine repair, but do love the simplicity of battery, so don't really prefer on over the other, both have pros and cons.
Hope the high winds this past week finally subside as it's interfering with Spring cleanup here.
