Cam was pretty tired of spending 3 hours to mow our lawn every week (we
have a big yard), so this year he was bound and determined to buy a
riding mower... used. I gave him a week or two of looking online for a
used mower and contacting those selling one, when we realized we had no
way of getting it back home. So when we came home from our Texas
vacation and our grass was 2 feet taller than everyone else's, I had had
enough waiting for Cam to find a mower. So I had to drag Cam and the
kids to Home Depot to buy a riding mower giving him the "I go out and
spend your money all the time and it's fun! So I'm going to show you how
much fun it is and you're going to buy a mower and you're going to like
it!" lecture... pathetic I know. So we headed off to Home Depot and the
closer we got the bigger Cam's grin got. So I thought I finally got
through to him. Nope! When we walked in the store, he walked right past
the riding mowers to look at the push mowers!!!!!! AHHHH! I literally
drug him over to the riding mowers, then his desire to have one those
big honkin' mowers kicked in and he was grinning from ear to ear in the
check out lane. It now takes him under an hour to mow the yard... def.
worth every penny!
