I mowed fourteen thousand steps worth.
If I keep the grass short on Summer's front acre we are more fire safe, she picks up fewer ticks and my husband is less likely to fall when he can see the contours of the ground more clearly. For all of those reasons I push an old gas powered mower. The good news is that I've decided to start a battery powered mower savings stash again. Last time I ended up doing something else important with my mower fund but this time it's past time to modernize. I expect I will treat myself to an upgrade for my birthday in September.
In between mowing and other chores I finished my daughter's favorite lemon blueberry scones.
They smell so good. The big problem is that there are eight scones and only seven fit in the travel container.
I asked Summer what to do?
She thinks we should drop the orphan scone off to a friend who lives alone because there is only one scone and three of us.
She is a genius.

@NorcalGma2 i’ve owned one battery powered mower. It was an echo. About five years ago.
Unfortunately, it didn’t work out because the batteries died far too quickly. And I’m talking permanent death not just ran out of juice though they were light on that as well.
Milwaukee makes a dual batttery push mower that is very expensive. But looks solid. Dual 12 amp batteries.
@Da_Gut
I will probably buy a Stihl because that is the brand of all of our battery powered tools. I believe they have a professional landscaping version.
@NorcalGma2 i’ll have to look at that one!
