The great switch over!
Original Message   Mar 22, 2005 5:22 pm
Hi Guys,

 Today was the official switchover to lawn maintainance for me. I took out the 1974 Snapper with the thatcherizer on the nose and skimmed up four bags of thatch. I then spread 10,000 sqare ft. of Scotts with Crab Grass Preventer while wishing for just one more "snow event".

Some how lawn care just doesen't have the same allure as snow removal.

Hi Guys!

Mr Mom- Long Island is home. Supposed to slush/rain tomorrow so I figured I'd let Mother Nature water it in.

Nothing like hopping on that tractor and enjoying your maintenance work and nothing breaking. 
Richie, I guess you used PRI-G during those 7 years?  If so, that product has me sold.

Changed the oil Sunday, Sears was out Monday too service it and put it away till the weather gets warmer so I can clean it, derust/paint it.

Now they are predicting 4 to 8 inches tonight in the Boston area...I have had my fill of snow this year really.

I'm supposed to get 4"-8" of snow tonight as well in the Poconos. There is still snow on the ground from the last storm. I've got another 4-6 weeks to go before thinking about cutting grass.
