We just paid the 16 year old boy down the block $30 and a mug of hot chocolate to do our driveway. Two summers ago he restored an old Craftsman riding mower with parts he found on eBay and hung a plow off the front.

He even has a light bar on it for safety. Sharp kid.

I hear him out there doing some of the neighbors as I type this. He’s a hard working young man and he’s raking in cash today. He even added a cup holder to his creation. LOL. We threw the travel mug in as part of the deal. Considering we are looking at a foot or more of snow today I’ve got his number programmed in the phone. He will probably get a call around 7 this evening once this thing calms down.

Money well spent as far as we are concerned.
