Up in Oregon BITD we would mow lawns in the fancy neighborhoods and one guy had an acre of grass on a hillside that he only wanted mowed fortnightly. That slope was riddled with little black snakes and littler garter snakes. I never got used to them and would jump at the sight of them, even if one had just been chopped in half and was being spit out the mower's chute I would be startled.

News flash:
I cut one of my lawns before the rain. It was getting dangerously tall. The 71 degree dew point challenged my heat tolerance. Keep in mind I'm fed up.

We had lightning strikes and lots of thunder off and on all afternoon but not one drop of rain. It quit raining middle of last week and the grass is already taking on a dullish green look and headed for brown.
