best lawn mower half acre image

My mother's backyard is VERY overgrown in some areas. There's also a pretty messed up koi pond in the backyard that I'm gonna have to trash. Anyway, all I have is a mower, a weed wacker, and my own hands to clean up the overgrown areas. Any tips? She's also giving me a budget to redo the backyard. Which is about half an acre. We live in New England so our weather's a bit unpredictable. Would it be worth it to put a new koi pond in? Also, could anybody help me with some ideas for the backyard redo? Thanks in advance!! :)

When I built my new house, I had to clear a lot of land. I had to rent a backhoe tractor to level some dirt piles. I then smoothed out some rough areas so I would be able to mow it when it was used as a lawn. Before I could mow the wooded, weedy areas, I had to clear it with a rake, sometimes a bit of shoveling, and a heavy-duty rototiller came in handy. There were rocks of all sizes strewn about. I hauled load after load of rocks in a wheelbarrow, out back where I had a giant rock pile hidden behind some trees. All this took intense labor over a year or so. Looks pretty good now. When you are all done with your clean up, you can decide if you wanna go to all the work of installing a fish pond. Remember, it requires more work to maintain a fish pond. In the meantime, you can get a copy of New Englander Robert Frost's book of poetry. He wrote a lot about such challenging projects.

I am mowing a lawn for a lady who is going away to China for a year. She will be gone from the middle of August to the end of July, so about 50 weeks. I am mowing a 1/2 acre lawn with a push mower. I will mow it once a week. How much should I charge per week?
