I trimmed the years here today, but the grass is crunchy, and don't need cut.
The one thing for you is you just got to get into it, and learn to enjoy :)
I actually used to love cutting grass.

I actually worked in landscape maintenance for a couple of years, and to be honest I didn't really mind driving the rider around in circles mowing large chunks of grass around apartment buildings and whatnot!

Besides the noise it can be relaxing I think, used to cut grass all the time for people, and a church.

The realtor emailed me the purchase agreement last night, but Telus email is still down so I can't open it.

Nonetheless, the deal is set, as the sellers accepted my offer!

It's in a town with a population of about 120, but a 15 minute drive away from two towns with populations of just over 10,000 each...

You can still visit the store even if you are not able to drive.

I would assume policing of the South Slocan Valley would fall under the jurisdiction of the Castlegar RCMP, which is headquartered 20 minutes away or so...

John Deere ride on mowers have an optional snowblower you can mount on the front. That might come in handy...

Karelian Bear Dogs have been bred for a fairly specific task, and ownership certainly isn't for everyone!

And here's the interesting part... The offer they accepted is basically what I can sell my one bedroom condo here for, so I can get into this mortgage free...

Well, that's why one of the sales clauses is dependent on a satisfactory home inspection report! Hopefully a competent inspector would find a major problem like that!
