Make lawnmower go whir

OK dad, I've been wihtout a lawnwower most of the summer. I want to take one last swipe at the acre with the push mower and then use the lawn sweep to clean it up. If I take the bag off the push mower what kind of trouble do you think I'll find if I try to chop up the very long 1'+ bent over grass and the leaves on top of it?

Dad, how can I get pressure treated lumber to dry without warping?

I bought lumber for a screened patio, and I need it to dry so I can paint it before construction. It's been sitting in a neat stack in the garage for almost a month now, and some parts still feel damp. I'm afraid that laying them out on the driveway during a sunny day would cause the boards to warp.

Dad, I was thinking of building an old-fashioned lemonade stand.

I've got a table saw, a cordless power drill, and wood screws. I was going to run to Home Depot for the wood and any other supplies I might need. Any tips?
