Dennis is on the Road

Dennis-on-the-Road

Dennis worked the barter system and today he headed out on the road. Kevin handed off several snow removal machines that he had no use of. We have a nice snowblower that Kevin gave us quite a few years ago. Snow that is deeper than that snowblower can handle is the clear indication that we have next door Randy handle the snow with his long green line. Dennis and his Cub Cadet headed out north about ten miles. The barter system involves that the mower will be taken off of the Cadet with new blades to be installed. The country fellow, Charlie, will take the snow removal items in the trailer. I am awaiting a phone call to go and pick up Dennis. Charlie will have time to work on the mower blades. The next time I take Dennis out to Charlie’s the mower will be in the trailer and Dennis will drive the Cadet home with the mower off. Dennis wants time this summer to really clean his 50-year-old Cadet and perhaps do some painting. This useful two-wheel trailer came from Kevin. It was a trailer that came specifically fitted for a fiberglass boat that came with it. Dennis found a new home for the boat and reworked the trailer for our residential use by putting a study steel floor onto it. There have been plans to make new side boards . . . sometime. In the past Dennis had scored a piece of cedar wood paneling that’s 12′ x 6′. Need I say more. Dennis is always ready for a good challenge with bartering to finish up the project. It’s all about the challenge for my sweet ole cowboy.
