I have 6.5 acres, 1.5 in easements - HV 2-phase, 1200' driveway, with
almost a circle around back to itself. In the slow works. 2 acres of
woods and a deep creek. (6' when shallow. Never dry). So with the
easements and the front and back yard with the sides and near the roads
it is about 4 acres of grass to cut. About 1/2 is St. Augustine
(native grass) and the rest is various field and bailing grass.

My series 1 takes most of the back and the easements. The garden areas
are taken with beloved on her John Deer factory machine. (Not a Lowes/HD
model). (more power and different design).

I have fine cut and hog cut. If anything gets out of hand, I can power
til it down and get a new start.

We have 4 buildings - three water / storm tight, one wood frame wild.

Why do you mow 7 acres a week? McMansion wif lawns?

Farmstead with a 7-acre 'family preserve' out on the front -- fishing pond,
shop/barn, house. I could cut it down to about 4.5 acres, but it looks
better and is more 'grand-kid friendly' when it's all mowed short.

2.5 acres isn't enough for a couple of kids?

Too bad you can't turn most of it into prairie, but they like their
dry seasons. (Hmm, maybe not...)

This is Florida. It _could_ use it more often than weekly in the summer;
but I'll be darned!

Wuss.
