If you've ever wondered if a CA with a Woods L-306 belly mower can cut tall grass, here's your answer. Cut grass half the day on Saturday. Some of the young foxtail in the roadsides was approaching height as tall as the front tires, but most was only about 8-10"; still pretty tall. It's amazing what new blades can do for a good looking job.
 After two swaths...
 And, yes, it made the ol' girl's governor bark a little bit
 But, usually the mowing is just yard work from the old building site/home place

Eldon, your CA picture always makes me smile. Stan & DeWayne, thanks for the compliments.DeWayne, I've got a GPS chip in the tractor seat that keeps those lines so straight... (that is so much BS, I can't believe I typed it).
Thanks, for all the comments. I've got more to post later.
