Spring is so vigorous here in Portland! Maybe it's that we had cold and wet for so long, or maybe it's that the earth really is shaking itself back to life. But it's absolutely beautiful. Lots of growing things, including weeds in our yard.
We did yard work today, pulled lots of weeds and Paul bought a reel mower and used it. I was watching him and he said, "why don't you take a picture for your blog?" He's never said that before....so I did. ;-)

I LOVE the reel mower. I remember growing up in Pakistan we had one of those that my brother mowed the yard with. Where did you guys get it, and does it work well?
Paul got it at a small garden shop near us (Garden Fever for you locals). I know you can also get them at www.lehmans.com. It seemed to work pretty well. We don't have a huge amount of grass, which is nice, in my opinion. The kids were all excited about the reel mower, and they can even do it too, and Paul told them they can mow as much as they want. :-)
Great fun working in the yard:) I love it.......my yard is too big for a push mower though.

Great photo!
When we moved, we upgraded from the reel mower to an electric one, but I have a soft spot for the reel (but then, I'm not the mower either)
we have a reel mower:) we bought ours at sears (I think). we have such a small yard that it seemed pointless to get a regular mower.
