Got the Joy of Mowing?

I love to mow the lawn!

— Debbie A.

I’ve mowed since 1962! I’ve used a power, push mower, riding mower, Super A tractor, and now a zero-turn mower.

— Rachel W.

 I love mowing the lawn! There’s a sort of Zen quality about it. Then, I grab a cold Yuengling and sit on the deck to relax and enjoy a job well done.

— Deb O.

Hi Joy of Mowing.  I enjoy the site so much…makes my day so pleasant!

— Roger M.

Yep, mowing is one of my true joys, nobody bothers me, the phone doesn’t ring and when I’m done I can look and see what I’ve accomplished.

— Tim C.

Been mowing 50 years and it’s one of my favorite things to do.

— Brian H.

It’s great therapy and great exercise and when you get done you can just sit back and admire all your hard work, plus getting to soak up some sunshine… all of this is good for the soul.

— Nancy S.

I solve all the world’s problems while mowing. Of course, it takes 3 1/2 hours, so one’s brain needs to do something right?

— Greg B.

I’ve been mowing lawns since I was 10 years old, now I’m 71 and still enjoy.

— Darrell D.

I use a push mower, it cuts my grass better and takes longer so I can have peace away from my stressful job.

— Stephen P.

…love mowing my lawn…and yes I use a walk-behind…very peaceful…

— Jack H.

Who else has to grab a cold drink and admire their work when they are done?

— Josh W.

That faded look isn’t a sign of trouble - it’s your lawn’s way of resting up for spring. As the season winds down, the real action moves underground where roots strengthen and store energy. November is the time for one last tidy cut, a little cleanup, and a well-earned break.

Had several of each. Had a lawn boy buttercup then a brick top. Had two motomower reel mowers too. But my favorite was Goodall. Damn good old mowers.

Lawn-Boy

1957 Lawn boy Ironhorse and I still have it and I’m 69 now !!

Lawn Boy for a couple years in the 80s

I mowed with a ride on Toro with a joy stick for steering and clutch. 38 inch single blade, motor in back.

I grew ip mowing with a montgomery ward self propelled, a reel mower. And three lawn boy mowers

Lawn Boy. There is or never was a equal!

Wheelhorse !!!!

My first was an 18 inch K mart mower with 3hp flathead Briggs, and fixed wheels. My favorite mower of all time is the Lawnboy 7268 (1978-1983)

Loafer!

Winter might look like downtime, but your lawn is still hard at work.
While the top rests, roots keep growing deeper — storing strength for spring.
A little rest now means greener days ahead.

& coat with a little motor oil so no rust dulls the blade over the winter.
