Push Mowers
Before we had power mowers, we had push mowers. By the time I came along, my parents had one of the early power mowers so we never had one of these old relics but my grandparents and some neighbors still had one. I used to like to mow with them. If the grass wasn't really high or wet, it was actually kind of fun. Also, I wasn't allowed to mess with a power mower for safety reasons so I thought being able to mow (even if it was with one of these) was kind of a big deal. I used to mow with my grandpa's push mower whenever I visited him and Momninnie during the warm months. He hated it when I messed with his mower but he tolerated it because griping at his grandchildren just never was my Papa's style. : )
