The First Mowing of the Spring Season

With the super sunny weather this weekend I thought it was time to get the trusty lawnmower out and give the lawn a little trim. This morning, after visiting my father at his estate I did the front lawn. You can see how it turned out…

And then this afternoon I completed the job by mowing the lawn in the backyard. It took a little longer than ususal simply because I left the first cut until so late. I think it looks pretty good now.

 Of course you should see what the estate looke dlike before the first mowing. Admittedly, this shot was taken before the snow had melted.

    Oh, bane to fashionistas everywhere, which end of the extreme fashion pole was deemed appropriate for this lawn mowing? The outdoorsy lumberjack look? Or, perhaps, the equally outdoorsy leopard print Speedo?

    PS. Did you have to prune the tree to get it that nice shape?

    I will post a before-photo so you can see the contrast. Our neighbourhood requires a refined touch when it comes to manicuring the estate grounds.
