I didn’t hit anything today but did hit a large-ish rock several weeks ago. Don’t know where it came from because I’d mowed the same spot a few times already this year with no problems. Obviously knocked something a little out of whack because there’s been some vibration. I found the broken piece in the grass and it looks like a bracket broke. When I was blowing the grass off the mower, I noticed the belt that turns the blades is floppy so the bracket is involved in that.
Maybe Hubby’s cousin will let me borrow his mower to finish the last little stretch by the driveway. The yards can wait. If push comes to shove, Charlie or Bobby can get the yards with the tractor and big mower if it takes too long to get Champ back.
You’ll miss being able to get out there on Champ, but thank goodness for the Guardian Angels!
