More packing and shopping. Ugh.
I saw a Panoz Roadster today. Haven't seen one of those in a long time.

When I was 17 I've considered to do something like this at my grandma's house. |

It's like modding or hypermiling. There's no such thing as perfection, just a best so far.

We bought a house on Friday.
The sellers hadn't mowed the lawn in, oh, maybe 6 weeks?
The grass was 18" high.
I did get a sweet Husqvarna ride on mower with the house. It took almost 4 hours to mow the lawn. And then I burned up all the branches from the two trees that had fallen a month earlier.
And cleaning. And painting. And drinking beer. And cleaning. And packing.
Gosh.
