We've (already) decided to give in a little. We knew we weren't going to go as far as purchasing a rider mower (like much of the neighborhood), but the manual way was just eating up so much time. (Especially after the rain, when everything seemed to grow an inch a day!) So instead of spending every evening and weekend whacking the grass and weeds into submission, we compromised.
The great thing about the "high wheel trimmer" - basically a push weedwhacker - is that we can wait until the grass is tall if we want to, without the irritation of a push mower bogging down every few seconds.
Matt loves it so far! The biggest problem is that the big wheels clunk down into the multitude of gopher holes popping up everywhere. (So we set our first two gopher traps yesterday evening... nothing yet...)
