Another Day
This day was another day as we had had yesterday. Yesterday Dennis and I had our two wheel trailer loaded for the tree dump. This at one time was a carrier for a plexiglass boat of some kind that Kevin had run across. Dennis ditched the boat and put a good steel base on the running gear. It sure has come in handy.
That trailer is now on the end of our drive until tomorrow afternoon when it goes out to be emptied at the tree dump. Dennis went to the east end of the acre and hooked onto a trailer that belongs to his friend Dwayne. It is one heavy 
implement trailer. We used it a year ago when we helped Kevin and Kersten amass pallets for their shop’s stove. Dennis parked the trailer in the drive and slowly but surely us two old timers loaded up the rest of what had been cut down yesterday. Dennis pulled the trailer into the backyard and it will also be ready for the tree dump ride tomorrow. Each trip to the tree dump costs $1.00. The city does have a fellow at the gate to make sure it is used for what it was intended for. Not a bad idea.
I got my trustee 6″ rake out and cleaned up all the small branches off of the dirt adjacent to the patio. We filled a plastic bin and topped off one of the trailers with it. Once Dennis had used the leaf blower to move the sawdust off the patio, it felt like us again. Tidy, tidy.
I admit, Dennis and I had a Tylenol break about ten this forenoon with some soda crackers. I don’t believe in taking any kind of med without some kind of food. Crackers count. Neither one of us did anything to hurt ourselves. It had just been two very busy “muscle using” days. We do seem to stay busy and don’t understand when friends our ages say they are bored. Only boring people get bored.
I don’t have the heart for any studio time this afternoon. If anything, I will enjoy sitting in my west bedroom porch and read a bit. Watching traffic may also be indulged.
What a sweet project off of our list of things we had thought needed doing. Be careful what you wish for . . . you just might get it.
