Too much grass and stuff growing through the bricks.

And my lower back is 54 years old.

Fuck Round Up, always. I've got a gas powered ECHO that I like and you can interchange the attachment. I've got weed whacker, edger, and blower attachments, and I think there's a few more. It's probably more than I need, but I didn't want to get something that would crap out after a year.

Iā€™d get a battery powered one for that kind of job.

I have a Black and Decker 18v battery powered one...it does the job and costs $70-$100 I think.

Cool, thanks.

To save money this year, we stopped the landscaper/lawn mower service. A healthy net savings, but I hate doing this shit.

I got a gas powered Stihl for 110 iirc. We had an electric, but that thing fucking sucked.

I much prefer gas powered but I no longer have an area where power is needed. A quick trimmer works for my needs.
