Photo: The Skinny On North Idaho

It's too much house and yard for a woman without a husband. And that was before you planted that damn fruit orchard. That's what Grandpa stopped by to tell me on the day I'd set aside to shop for a lawnmower. I had the money saved up and knew just what I wanted: A riding mower with a beer holder and a plow blade, too, for the winter months when the grass isn't long, but the snow is. I already have the straw hat. Just need me some Big Boy overalls. Maybe I'd even enter the Big Back-In lawnmower drag races come Father's Day/Taryn Hecker (pictured above), Skinny On North Idaho.
