Anyone here have a robotic lawn mower?

[raccoon]

If I buy a house with a level (or fairly level) yard, I'll definitely look into it.

1. Depends on the time of the morning that I get my son to cut the lawn...nt

3. Ah, poor overworked kid. Probably has to ride the BUS to school too. nt

[NuclearDem]

2. I do, and his name is me.

Just a lean mean grass cutting machine.

4. To Hell with a robotic lawn mower

I'd go with goats. I've done my research and discovered robotic lawn mowers make for lousy BBQ's.

7. 2nd vote for goats. I'm trying to talk my mother in law into getting a couple

My father in law wants to kill me for the idea.

They've got a big place out in the sticks with acres of grass that needs constant upkeep.

9. You might investigate contract vegetation control

A friend of mine has made a substantial fortune with goats. Big regional parks in the San Francisco bay area hire his goats to knock down the vegetation. He started with just a few a couple of decades ago, and now has three thousand of the ravenous creatures.

Heck, if you're just talking grass, sheep would do the trick. Six, eight fluffy ewes would make short order of thing.

11. Did your buddy do Pasatiempo?

That helped so, so much. If you ever get a chance ti play Pasatiempo, go for it.

12. No, that was 'Brush Goats 4 Hire' out of Santa Barbara

Even though I have a tremendous short game, my golf scores match my bowling scores exactly.

13. I'm internet friends with Tom Doak on another board

Once he saw what the goats could do he was over the moon.

14. Also, if you ever get to Chicago you must go to "The Girl and The Goat"

The goat leg is so tender. Actually, everything is good. No cheap but well worth it.

There are a few Mexican places with goat but GNG is better.

15. Goat is common in the Mexican restaurants in my area

Good, too. Is The Girl and The Goat anywhere near Clark and Addison? Revisiting Wrigley Field is on my bucket list. Bleachers, for sure.

18. Girl n Goat is west of the Loop

Pm me if in town. I know where to eat. And stay.

5. I am pretty sure Mitt Romney pays someone to do that for him

[Blue Owl]

6. Bwah!

Give him some credit tho -- he was nice enough to install a lawn mower elevator in the servant's quarters...

[GeorgeGist]

8. I'd hire a person to do it?

[angstlessk]

10. I agree with 'hire a person'...you may make the difference

if he can feed his kids....a robot not so much..

I have to say I have a robot vacuum...but the alternative is not a maid, but me vacuuming

16. Not a chance. As a 68 year old man, mowing

Is one of my exercises. Since I work at a desk daily, it's important. This week though, I added digging post holes for a new fence to my routine. Use your body or lose it.

17. That sounds very cutting edge.
