Actually it is too hot but the grass won't cooperate
and keeps growing no matter how much I hope it won't.
My hiking partner for Sunday
Much too loud, always had to be in the lead, ran out of gas halfway through the hike.
Not a hiking partner I would pick but
I'll probably have to repeat this experience a few times this summer.
I bought a house in the woods so I wouldn't have to have a manicured lawn.
Though I still have to cut it a few times in the summer.
I wouldn't cut it at all but society dictates otherwise.
This year's wood chips or next winter's bonfire.
Walking around with a lawn mower is a great way to get exercise
for those with maladies like mine.
It's like having a walker that accomplishes something while it's helping you balance.
Hopefully the weather will break and I can get back on the trails.
I know this wasn't a hike by any stretch of the imagination but I had to post something.
(It was a long walk almost through the woods)
Crotched Mountain next!
I can't begin to tell you how much I related to your Blog report! Although it wasn't related to what some might call "hiking", nonetheless it was about self-propulsion, which actually is what hiking boils down to!
ReplyDeleteAlso, I can relate to your statement about buying a house in the woods so as to alleviate the need for having a manicured lawn. I even went one step further by buying a condo in the woods where there is also no need for a manicured lawn, plus the condo association takes care of the few mowings that are done each year!
Thanks for posting this. It was a most enjoyable read!

Thanks John.
DeleteThat's my next move - a condo.
Let someone else take care of the grounds.
