Some kids use the owners' lawn mowers. I don't remember what that kid
used but I'm sure I already had one. After he went off to college, it
broke and I got a second one and it broke and I spent weeks trying to
make one work, by taking parts from one for the other, and then the
other way around. Finally one day after I'd pretty much given up
someone stole both of them. I'll bet he was surprised when he got home.
And it was a relief for me.

I have an end-of-group townhouse so the yard is still small so then I
got an electric. It starts every time.


My next door neighbor got a battery powered Ryobi riding mower earlier this
year. Like you say, it starts every time. She loves it. She used to mow
every 3-4 weeks, but since getting the electric model she was out there
every weekend. I offered to make a drink holder for it.
