Juan began mowing lawns for money last summer. He started mowing at the beginning of May. It was spring, it rained often and continued through the summer, and the lawns on Juan's block grew fast. He was able to mow lawns all summer, and he made some good money! This year was completely different. The weather did not cooperate. Most of Juan's customers told him that he did not need to mow as often. By the end of the summer, Juan made less than half of what he made the year before.
