Good morning!

Yes, UG, I was planning to take a lawn mower in my suitcase. I had it all packed, too. It fit nicely in one and with a little heaving, a little extra muscle, I could actually pick up the suitcase.

BUT, hubby relented and said I could ship it instead. Good for me.

I can just imagine y'all thinking this big hulking riding mower like Dog has. Don't.

Picture instead an old-fashioned push lawnmower with those rotary blades. It makes that soothing swish-swish sound as you push it over your lawn. There is a fine mist of green being ejected out the back and over your shoes. The kind that died out in the 60s.

You can get them at ACE hardware for around a hundred bucks. The weight is not as great as before, the metal is a little more light weight, and, it breaks down into parts if you have to ship it anywhere.

Jemian, regardless of the explanation, it still struck us as funny that you actually had a lawnmower in your suitcase :)
I thought you were kidding at first :)
