My venture into Commercial Mowing with a Gravely Mower
Update 06/02/2022: See Part 2 – “Don’t trust Gravely with your money.“
I decided recently that I am going to use some of my free time during the day to start a small business mowing and trimming lawns commercially. I decided that if I was going to do this I should most likely pick up a commercial grade mower – something that will stand the test of time and handle the rigorous use that a commercial mowing business would place on a piece of equipment.

It’s been almost a year since I wrote a post and life has a way of keeping you busy. I’ve gone through a lot of changes both in my personal as well as my professional life.

At the office where I work unfortunately there are no fiber optic options. Before we signed the lease we reached out to the local ISP that provides fiber connections for our area and confirmed that they serviced the location we were looking at leasing. The ISP told us they did service our building and we didn’t find out until after we signed our lease and arranged to set up service that they do not actually service this location. Sadly enough the only option we have here is AT&T vDSL [AT&T uVerse Business Internet DSL].
