Ah, yer an old codger; I wasn't born til 59.
/after moving 10 tons of rock today, I don't feel young. Even using the
tractors, there's still a lot of hand work in it.
I lifted about 100 lbs of weeds out of a lady's yard yesterday, one by
one through the stones in her yard. My finners are toast. She's 1 of
only 2 landscaping clients I have right now. I don't mind weeding or
mowing occasionally for $30/hr. I have a welded wire fence to put in
today, and I'm not looking forward to that at all. T-post setting and
wire lifting aren't fun. Maybe I'll finish the cedar & PT fence today
instead...
