Joseph bought himself a little trailer for his lawn and snow business tonight. We just got back from picking it up in Dodgeville, WI. Found it on Craigslist for $600 and it’s 6’ x 8’ and came with ramps and a spare tire. Guy had just painted everything, replaced all the wood, lights and wheels.

Joseph is going to be head of a large company like Pfizer someday because he is extremely smart plus he is a extremely hard worker! I would hire him in a heartbeat if I ran a large company.

I agree! Smart kid. I'm proud of him lol--and he's not even my son! Kid is a go getter. That'll serve him well in life.

This afternoon we did more work on swapping parts from the donor truck.

Swapped over the front bumper (less rusty), grille (less broken), lower trim piece (not cracked), turn signal assemblies (no deer impact damage), headlight mounting bracket (broke tabs made lights wobble). He’s really getting comfortable with using the tools and is gaining confidence to do stuff. Very enjoyable afternoon.

Nice! I see he's wearing his glasses too. Good boy.
