Yesterday, Derek fixed the broken lawn mower I got for $10 at a yard sale and mowed the lawn! Yes, I did know it was broken when I bought it, but I figured that even if we couldn't fix it, we'd only be out $10. What a deal!
And it seems to have been a simple fix. The plastic tank was cracked--the previous owner left gasoline in the tank through the winter--so Derek glued it with PVC glue and it held! Since the crack is near the top, Derek is hoping that if he doesn't fill up the tank, it will hold for quite a while.
Here are some pictures of our freshly mowed lawn. It looks great!!
And here's a picture of how our curb appeal is coming along. We're about halfway finished!!

Looks awesome! Your hard work is paying off. If he couldn't fix the awesome deal of a lawnmower, we take all of our stuff to a guy on Ash that fixes anything incredibly cheap and he always does it right. Tons of people take their stuff there as he is always busy.
