Out With the Old.......

…..and in with the new - lawnmowers, that is. My ancient one (I thought I may have had it ever since I moved here 21 years ago but I seem to remember buying one shortly after I moved). In any case, it was pretty well used and finally gave up the ghost the other day. 

Here it is, sitting at the curb, in the hope that someone will pick it up for parts.

As lawns keep on growing it was imperative that a new one be purchased. So that was my task of the day and I found one relatively quickly and easily. It was the cheapest one available - a little narrow, only cuts a 14" swath at a time - but much easier to push around than the old one. I'm sure I will be happy with it.
