Trying to decide if I will do the yard this week or let it go. Maybe do the weed eating and edging this evening at dusk and mow in the morning.
The morning dew around here doesn't dry out untill 10 or 11 am so I'll mow right after that. Not bad on the zero turn even in the middle of the day...weed eater and trimming with the small mower usually gets done right before dark over this way too!
Looks as if yours is pretty level and open. Mine is a killer. About an acre on the side of a hill. Three tiers, heavily wooded and lots of flower beds. Takes about 2 hours of weed eating and about 3 hours of mowing. Use a tractor for all areas where it can go, but then have to use the walker for all the paths and narrow areas between trees and beds. It's getting to be too much for me.

Unless you really like working in the yard and have massive amounts of spare time on your hands, I dump a place that took that much yard work in a heartbeat! Of course, I detest yard work, so I might not be the best barometer, but that's an awful lot of upkeep when you consider it's just the weekly mowing -- not raking in the fall, fertilizing and keeping the bugs and weeds at bay throughout the year, trimming trees and bushes, etc.....

No wonder you take so many dang naps.....
You nailed it. Plus the tree trimming and removal, then tree planting. I hate yard work. Really hate it but my wife loves it and she loves having me take care of it the way she wants.

Looks like an obstacle course...too much trimming. It does look good though!
