aerobics

This evening, I got as close as I’ll ever get to aerobic exercise–I tried out our new reel mower on the lawn. I have to say, it did a nice job. However, there are a few distinct disadvantages it has versus a gas-powered mower:
1. it only cuts on the forward stroke
2. forget about pushing it uphill
3. it takes twice as long
4. cutting moderately high grass is a real chore

I was really curious to see how it was going to work. Thank goodness I got that out of my system.
