Came home from two weeks away (side job, +$3k) and DW was on me about the lawn. And of course, the mower decided to take a shit (new electric one, defective battery).
So, I dusted off the reel mower and got going. Was even running for a good chunk of the time, and banged it all out in well under an hour. Felt GREAT. Now I'm wondering why I thought the new yard was too big for it (facepunch) and may just try to unload the powered gear.
