It would have been nice to have a week between mowings this summer.

I've been mowing about every 4 or 5 days and spraying roundup around the buildings and trees every couple of weeks. 

It's almost like the joke. 

Guy is selling a farm and the prospective buyer who is from another area of the country asks how fertile the ground is here in Iowa.  The farmer says, "Well, if the chickens don't catch the corn when I throw it to them they have to eat it off the ear."
