A STUDY IN CONTRASTS
Here is a picture of Michel Fauquet mowing his yard. He’s wearing a hat, a jacket, and gloves while mowing with a push mower.
In contrast, here’s a picture of me, unshaved, t-shirt, shorts, and no socks riding on a lawn tractor.
Michel is six years older than me, better groomed and in much better physical condition. I think I should get off my butt and start using the push mower again.

I too have a ride-on mower, Paul. It’s my favourite Boy’s Toy, and although not quite as active now I’m in my seventies, I like to think I don’t let the grass grow under my feet. If I ever entertain thoughts such as yours, I think will lie down in a quiet room until the feeling passes !
By the way, love the house and garden !
ha! I’m more in favour of mowing your way! And, that is a very lovely yard.
lol. I don’t mow. I think it’s against my religion or something.
What a surprise to find this ! You give me much honor , Paul . I am not sure our phuysical conditions are different .
I like the picture of you riding your garden tractor . I have a neighbour that uses this .
You have a wonderful house and your lawn is having a British quality .( the Brits are renowned for their grass ) .
Thank you , friend .
In friendship
Michel
