Oh Happy Day
It may be gray with mosquitoes galore, but Dennis doesn’t care.
On a whim Dennis drove out to the building site of Ryan the tree hauler. The trip was to just let Ryan know that anytime, Ryan had time, Dennis had more work for him on the blue barn acre. After supper, the phone rings and the job had for today, Friday, canceled out on him. Ryan and his crew would meet Dennis at 7:30 this morning with his crew. I am surprised Dennis got any sleep, he was almost giddy.
Here we are at mid afternoon. Ryan’s crew needs to load up some equipment. All, and I mean all, of the old railroad ties lining the east and south of that acre are gone. The ties actually lined the east of the acre and the ties on the south had been pushed into a mess of sometimes four and five high at various degrees. Two loads of ties headed to Brown County landfill. One load of wood went to our tree dump.
My ole cowboy has had quite the summer of getting his job-jar taken care of. Next on his list is to go back to Home Depot for several more gallons of the Brush killer. What he used last year had a great carryover into this year. Now that the railroad ties to the south are gone, he can tackle more brush that had been growing among them. I got a tour of the latest work via the little red pickup. We can now see the residential lots to the south of the blue barn acre.
Me . . . I am still on the mend from Monday’s dental visit. I supply a good lunch and orange juice breaks to Dennis while he ram-rods. Sweet.
Sister-in-law sent a photo of our Koi in her pond. They have had many bright orange babies.
With that I take my leave. ♥
