Our last tenant left a heavy duty dog stake and chain in the backyard. I couldn't see in the high grass while I was mowing. It played a number on the lawn tractor. I hauled it to the repair shop. I returned the next day to the property with my home tractor. I was then unfortunate enough to run over heavy gauge wire that was hiding under leaves. The wire wrapped and knotted itself around the shaft and the blade. It was as if the entire property was booby-trapped. I tried an assortment of hand held cutters and a hacksaw with no success. The only way I could cut through the taught and tangled mess was with hand held power angle grinder. BINGO! I finally got the yard and field mowed as the sky darkened ~ expecting it to rain at any moment. It felt good to finally get it all mowed before the rain came down.
I woke up this morning listening to rain outside ~ feeling that grass growing out there. Next time it'll be easier.
