re: "They were 5 feet

That's a problem for me, too.

When I head up north in July, it will be my first visit since last August. That's a whole year - the longest I've ever been away - and I probably won't be able to see the driveway.

I mow the driveway with a conventional power mower since I don't want all that chopped grass falling into the gravel and seeding new growth. So I'll be mowing the driveway for a couple of hours on Day #1, and going over it again with Roundup a week later.

It's funny, but the closer I get to actually moving to New Hampshire, the scarcer my visits are becoming. That's because my son is older now and it's impractical to pull him out of school for a week or more. And when he DOES get a break (Easter, which was in March this year, and Christmas), there's far too much snow. So we don't go then either.

In 2015, we went to NH at the very end of March. My son made a video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=coQUw2Rcr8c

I have a bit of a sunburn but I do not
worry about it. I have got them all my
life. When I was younger, I could put
skin lotion on and the burn would be
completely gone the next day. Now it
takes longer.

The land I was mowing does have some
problems but I know where they are.
What irritates me is that I mowed two
weeks ago before the rain started and
now the weeds are monsters. Some were
so big that I would have to back up
and hit them hard. They were 5 feet
tall and so close together that they
would stop the mower. Fortunately I
did not have but about 20 by 40 feet
of those. The other weeds were about
two feet tall. My two bladed mower
chops that stuff up fairly well.
