I seem to be obsessed with lawn mowing. Over the years I have often commented in this blog about how annoying RV park lawn mowing activity can be. Recently I’ve been commenting on the need or lack there of for a good mowing in this RV park. A couple of days ago, in this blog, I asked when they would get around to mowing the grass in the RV resort. The answer was today.

This morning while I was preparing breakfast I heard the sound of a lawn mower. Sure enough a mower was cutting the grass behind my RV. My breakfast got delayed as I watched the guy mow the grass. Why? I don’t know, but for the next half hour or so I sat in my chair and watched the guy go back and forth across the field. Eventually, I got back to brewing my coffee and baking my muffins. The next thing I know, I was watching the lawn get mowed around my site and between neighboring sites. If the oven bell didn’t go off I might never of gotten back to breakfast. Later in the day a guy with a string trimmer came around to work on the edges near the RVs and what not. Still later a guy with a blower came around to clear the cut grass off the concrete pads.

Today’s fascination with lawn mowing really put an egg beater into my rough plans for the day. The morning was the only part of the day that dry outdoor activities were probable. It was shortly after noon by the time I was ready to leave my RV home and the black clouds were on the horizon. Today’s plans were made up if things I might do, not had to do. Inclement weather has a way of turning might do into some other time do.

As it turns out the rain never fell in this immediate area. The area toward Disney and the area south of here likely got clobbered. At the RV resort I was able to get in my usual walks. I was surprised to see one odd patriotic decoration. Someone, I don’t think it was park staff, put two small American flags along the walkway to one of the bath houses.
