New Mower for Regina

Linda fixed us sausage biscuits for breakfast, then Pauline and Brent left for IN early in the morning. We are dog sitting for Pico and Poco for the next few days. Linda and I went outside about 9:30 and began mowing around the house, then the front yard, the barn lot and the little house yard. We finished a little before noon and went inside for a couple of cool drinks. Later in the day, Regina called me and asked me to come over and help her with her mower. I went over to her house and Linda was there mowing on one of our mowers, Regina showed me she had bought a new mower. We started it and followed the instructions on starting and stopping the mower deck. As we were doing that, the belt came off that drives the mower deck, so I had to get my toolbox and replace the belt. After that, there were no more problems and the new mower really does a nice job. She bought a John Deere with a 48 inch cut and a 22 hp motor. It has a hydrostatic drive, so it will be easy for Regina to use, once she gets used to not having a clutch and transmission. I finished mowing her yard with it after she had tried driving it around the yard for a few minutes.
