Oooh! Good idea.


Beats my first thought of some overhead drop-down extension cord (think
clothesline with a pully or a cable-type dog run).


Solar power retrofit with several deep-cycle golf cart batteries. *You

If your property is dead flat and square - you live in Texas, right? -
rig a drive wheel off of the shaft so it is self-propelled, stick a
stake in the middle of the lawn and tie a cord to the mower and let
the mower cut an ever decreasing spiral until the lawn is fully mowed.
