It isn`t but it`s the best there will be for 6 months Steve, I`ll give it a shot for a short ride. It`s been quite a while since I rode.

My plan is to spend time in the yard today and see what needs to be done before it gets colder.

Since there are so many leaves everywhere the best I can do is to run over them with the riding mowers.

I still have plenty of leaves on the trees at my place.. Will probably hit them with the zero turn when they let loose.

That last blast of winter pretty much finished removing the leaves from the branches, I was thinking winter was here to stay and would be dealing with the leaves in the spring..I'd like to clean out the flower gardens too it at all possible..

The flower garden along the house the wife said we should just get rid of it and let the grass grow there instead..might end up doing that to make things easier

Sounds legit to me.
How do you like your zero turn Steve? I was thinking of getting one but my yard isn`t smooth enough in some places so it would be a pretty rough ride.

I sometimes wish I had a zero turn but as long as the garden tractor I have runs I'll keep using it..
