Cinco De Mayo & Electric Mowers

Today is Cinco De Mayo, yet there is nothing going on it town to celebrate.  I don't want to drive to San Antonio and deal with all the traffic, so I'll pass altogether.  I suppose the bars will be celebrating (any excuse to party....haha).  I wish I still drank.....  No I don't.

Gas went down a penny today at the corner pump.  I guess down is better than up.

I bought an electric mower last week   I still have the riding mower for the main property, but I needed something for the backyard.  I'd been using the push reel mower (Beaver Cleaver Style), and that's fun and exercize, but if the grass gets too long forget about it.  
I didn't want another smelly polluting gas mower, so I decided to chance it.  If it didn't  cut or was too wimpy I could bring it back to the store.  I got the Black & Decker 6.5 AMP 18" mower, and it rocked.  What fun (once I figured out how to maneuver the cord).  Good purchase.
