They also walk through an overgrown property project Greg's church men's group is tackling. Including a weeping cherry tree you can't get under, burning bushes taller than most people, Virginia Creeper climbing a sunroom, and a shed hidden for four years behind brush. Plus: mowing height battles with a client, the new Yard Book "buy now pay later" feature, and why the Ventrac Tough Cut attachment might be cool, but probably not for these guys.
