To Mow or Not To Mow

Every year at the end of February or beginning of March, I get to choose between mowing about a half acre of weedy mud (or is it muddy weeds?) or waiting for it to dry out while knowing that more rain is on the way. Do it this weekend and it's too early and doesn't help. Wait until next weekend and it's too long and is a nightmare. Or it's too long and it's pouring rain. Yesterday looked like it was going to rain, but the afternoon was sunny and I figured I'd hit the mud this morning and things would be a little drier. Yesterday evening it poured, and this morning it was raining again. I'll just go have another cup of coffee and think about it some more. If only I had some bears rummaging around to use as an excuse.
