Until the beginning of this summer, I had never mowed a lawn before.
Growing up, my dad always did it and he wasn’t a big fan of us using power tools when we were little (understandable).

Anthony “Tony” Keller thought he’d stay in Carson City as its police chief for another 10 years or so before retiring — as many officers do — around the age of 55.
There was only one job that would entice the 43-year-old to leave, and that was a job in his own community of neighboring Home Township.
