Memories.......
“Hi Mom, what’s that?”
“The Robertsons are moving. This is the Robertson brothers customer book. All the folks whose yards they mowed last summer, and the prices they charged. I told them you would take over.”
“But Mom - there were TWO brothers!”
“Maybe you need to find a partner. Come on, let’s to the Co-op before it closes, and we’ll get you a new push mower. I’ll pay half, and you can pay me back from your earnings.”
So much for lying around in the summertime...
I also did odd jobs for people, insulating their exposed pipes, raking leaves, clearing brush, etc...............Picked cucumbers one summer plus all the others!..........
