First lawn mowing of the season today - front and back (just under a 1/2 acre lot). Really wish I had a riding mower, especially on the first of the season mows! Walked a total of 3.2 miles and I'm ready for a sit-down :)

Dinner! Made a creamy dill potato salad with fresh dill from our hydroponic herb garden and an eggless meatloaf to accommodate my egg allergy. Yummy!!
