Guess I was all tired ou yesterday and slept like a log last night. Woke up at 6:30 this morning, about 2 hours later than normal. Another wonderful mild night and very warm morning as the sun came up. Got my first 1.5 miles walk down the road and around town for a bit. Then a nice country drive, Waiting for the grass to dry a bit and get the mower out. 4 miles walked by the end of the day.

My walkabout town aI enjoyed some nice colourful spring flowers.

| back down River Road to home |
The Mower needed a boost from the car, but got it running and drove it down to our coach at the front of the yard where we had some power and put on the battery charger. Then we enjoyed had a nice light lunch then I will see what grass I can get mowed.
 |
It fired right up again and I headed on out
love this Ferris zero turn Mower |
At 12 noon I mowed all around the front yards and the house, the coach, play yard and pool area. Then around most of the 5 acres here for about 2 hours. Shortly after 2 pm it was cooling down clouds coming in temperature went from 75F to 65 f hmm. looks like rain. I got a lots of the edges done and only about an hour left to mow. Maybe on Wednesday, supposed to rain tomorrow and I have appointments to take care of.
These 5 acres back onto farmland and various properties at the back so I have lots of opportunities too see many things.

Now to enjoy a wonderful warm afternoon, with a few rain sprinkles so we deployed our awning and relaxed with our pages turners. Still a quiet comfortable afternoon outside. No complaints , listening to the mourning doves and birds chirping, loving this warm spring weather.

| much drier here |
 |
| enjoyed a nice hike here and down by the river |
 |
| love the river views on the trail |
A bit later John's son Jamie dropped by with their dog Shelby, nice to chat with him for a while and Suzie enjoyed a doggie fix with Shelby.
 |
| Shelby is a beautiful dog and as usual loves Suzie |
Soon time to whip up supper . Tonight we will enjoy some shrimp burgers that we really love. Nothing else needed , these did the trick.
 |
not long on our Weber Q
English muffins warming in foil |
These did the trick today, Seafood sauce to go with them. Too easy, ketchup, horseradish , lemon juice and tabasco to taste. Make it whenever you need it.
 |
| these shrimp burgers were wonderful as always |
We sure did enjoy a very nice warm sunny spring day for the most part. And the lawn mowing is always fun here as well.
Glad that y'all stopped on by and hope you had a great day as well.

Where have we been this Summer ?
Looks like your grass is growing fast down there!
ReplyDeleteYes Stew it sure is, mowing like crazy here.
DeleteThere’s that lawnmower!!! I know, I’m weird, but I know how much fun you’re having!!
ReplyDeleteYes Nancy I am having fun, guess I'm weird too.
DeleteIt is certainly looking like spring over there. Now that is a huge mower.
ReplyDeleteLove shrimp burgers. I haven't tried these. I will add it to my grocery list.
Sure is spring time now, It is a huge mower but 5 acres to cut is pretty huge too.
DeleteWe like theses shrimp burgers saw some different ones the other day would like to try as well.
Nice job on the mowing George.
ReplyDeleteI have never seen shrimp burgers, I guess that's something that can only be bought in Canada?
Thanks JO, I have never seen them in the states either, now that you mention it.
DeleteWow, if I owned a big old landmower like the one you are using I "might" consider doing yard work. Spring is definitively in the air in Canada.
ReplyDeleteLike JO, I have never heard of "shrimp burgers" but bet they are savory and good for you unlike the Whataburgers I enjoy...though tasty have thousands of calories.
It is a fun mower to drive and makes the lawn mowing go pretty quickly, spring is in the air for sure.
DeleteThese burgers are a very nice treat we enjoy them, much healthier than a beef burger I would think.
Though Whataburger does make an awesome burger.
Nice to get back on that mower and John will be happy you are back.
ReplyDeleteThat is a pile of seafood sauce/ketchup/horseradish on your burger!! ha ha, can you taste the seafood? haha
Looks like you enjoyed the day. We aren't quite as warm up here yet, our trilliums have not bloomed but the grass is starting to grow. Just need more sun along with the rains we're getting.
It was nice to get out on the mower playing in the yard. Love this seafood sauce really added to the texture of the shrimp burger . we sure did enjoy our day. Sunny and warm weather perfect.
DeleteThe first cutting of the year sure makes a big difference doesn't it! Sure it is greatly appreciated! Those zero turn mowers are amazing aren't they. We love watching them when we're in TN and back that way, seems everyone has one! Ken said the shrimp burgers looked delicious!
ReplyDeleteThe first cutting is always nice. Really do love these zero turn mowers and are so worth it. The shrimp burgers are excellent.
DeleteThe grass looks much better mowed and that looks like a serious mowing machine but I still wouldn't want to mow 5 acres
ReplyDeleteIt does look much better, This is a serious commercial machine and can cut these 5 acres in 3 hours. so not too bad.
