No Mow May/Yo Mow May

28 years ago, when I was 26, I had a hernia operation. I find it remarkable that I have not had to have another one since. I guess they did a good job.

Yesterday was a workout. Cutting the grass after "No Mow May" meant serious lifting in my arms, managing the weed whacker for an extended period of time. And I did my regular exercises. I chose to take it easy this morning on my run.
