Tryin’ to catch me mowin’ dirty, Tryin’ to catch me mowin’ dirty, Tryin’ to catch me mowin’ dirty

The fifth badge of Grown Up Summer Camp is the They See Me Mowin’ Badge.

How do you know if you have earned this badge well :

1) This badge goes out to all the sweat drenched, bug covered, grass clipping catching, mower pushing, tractor riding people who get out there weekly, keeping those lawns lookin’ fresh to death (while simultaneously praying for the day the cold weather comes and they can pack up that mower for the season.)

The real question is, what kind of mower are you?:

A) The post-work mower: You’ve worked a long day but you have to get out there and mow because the lawn is starting to look like a jungle and you might loose a kid or two in the grass soon.

B) The poop-shoe wearer: Where are my dog owners?! Thats right, mowing season means poop-shoes! Because let’s be honest, ain’t nobody got time to pick up poop before mowing. It’s all fertilizer anyway right?

C) The Riding Mower Cowboy/girl: That’s right, you are the envy of the neighborhood! You’re up there on that mower, wearing your bluetooth headphones and “keep the sun your face” hat with your drink safely stowed in the cupholder. Mowing isn’t a chore for you, it’s an escape! 30 mins of blissful, musical, magical mowing alone time. 

D) The Electric Mower: You, my corded friend, are mowing that lawn like the Eco-Friendly rockstar you are! You could be a lasso artist with your cord wrangling skills.

If you qualify then you, my fellow camper, have earned the They See Me Mowin’ Badge! Congratulations because you have the most fabulous lawn in town AND if you live in an area where it gets cold in the fall, well, your mowing days are almost over for the year!

Have another way in which you feel you qualify for this badge of honor? Email me and let me know!

Until next week… Happy Camping! Only 1 more badge to go!
