Yep.. that's the one.. except mind doesn't have wheels, just skids...

No, it's a power mower.. 6.0hp Honda on a Husqvarna body, single blade, 22" cut. Not a rider.. that's what I meant by "push mower."

8' by 30'. Start mower. Push forward. Pull back. Push forward. Done.
Just the way I like it.

She is 100% correct. I think I need to take her out this weekend.
I am curious why she is 100% correct. How did you manage this arrangement?

They are always 100% correct even when they are not.

Maybe, maybe not. That's not the question. I want to know why she puts up with him and spoils him. This seems non-traditional.

That would be nice.

Problem is most nice hotels in those areas are now asking 2 night minimums, which makes a little get away very expensive.

Traditional in my home. Maybe just what happens after 36 years of marriage.

Also, since 911s are too expensive, and 240Zs are getting too expensive, and I cannot find RX-3s for the life of me, my newest car idea involves old Celicas.

And there is no guarantee if you decide to agree with them you will be right.

My Mother had one of those cedar signs you buy in mountain town rustic souvenir stores hanging over the door in her kitchen (and yes it was definitely HER kitchen) for basically her entire adult life that read:

"It's to late to agree with me now, I've changed my mind".

I always thought that pretty much summed it up.

You had enough of that last weekend. Clean the bathroom for her.
