Doing a little math you were cutting grass for about 2 hours --- add that to being under the shed, it was more like 5 hours in the heat --- My Grass had got like yours from Rain and soil too wet to support the weight of the " o " turn mower without getting it buried in the mud.. Between Mommas and mine there is about 4 Acres --- I have learned to pick up the deck and knock the top off then another cut to shorten it some more.. When the Clippings dry do the finish cut and do not try to cut too much... I had a Dentist in Ruston that like you, Fell off his tractor -- the Bush Hog took his Right Hand but it could have been his life.. Glad you are well enough to go fishing again

Glad the Lord gave you more time Paw Paw....
As a mail carrier in Lafayette, I don’t look forward to summer. My grandpa died at 93, he told me it wasn’t this hot when he was growing up.....I also had a lady in her mid-80’s tell me it wasn’t this hot way back then....She said she used to pick cotton in summer, and there’s no way they could’ve done that now......Some say way more concrete/asphalt now.......
Glad you’re ok

Thanks Marty. I visited the scene today to see if someone had cut my yard. I was told it would be taken care of and it was. While down there I sat on the tractor to see what had gave me a bruise and skin tear on my side. Also I wanted to see how the tire was rubbing on my arm. I sat up on the seat and leaned over to try and duplicate the position I was in. It was then that I realized that I was but a fraction of an inch of having my arm pulled off and may pulling me off the tractor. My angels were watching.

Since the grass had been mowed I brought my zero turn down with me and I cut it again shorter in preparation for the tropical weather heading our way. I wanted to get it cut before all the rain hit making it impossible to cut. Well I got it done. It's looking good now.

Watch out for the rain and the floods,

Gene you and Mrs Linda be safe with this tropical weather coming your way. From what they are saying up here you might have some bad rains. We will be praying for you'll.
