    Nah, probably do the last or 2nd to last mow of the year tomorrow or Monday. Grass has just about given up here, maple trees starting to turn yellow and all.

    Hey guys how's it going? South of Iowa City here GO HAWKS!!!!!

    Good rains and nice temps all season, probably be mowing until the end of October, possibly even the first week in November. Finishing up fall applications (call ups), start aerations in a couple of weeks, cleanups end of October into November. Last application in November, then sssssllllleeeeeeppppppp!!
