I gave him the usual warnings, warned him about overhanging limbs, made sure he knew how to shut the machine off in an emergency, and let him feel his way with the tractor.

He mowed all morning and half the afternoon and seemed to love it. Then he drove away in his Mercedes wagon, planning to come back to do more. I think I might be on to something here.
