[DVBC] Bob's new Digs

[Edward Sobolewski]

Doug,

I have not read all the email (I was on vacation in Grand Canyon) so I am
not entirely sure what is happening here but you and count me in also.  Just
let me know how much do I need to send (and I guess to you?)

Edward

David,

 

So far if everybody that has responded chips in $20.00 we have enough to pay
for the engine, a new battery and shipping. 

 

I called Bob this morning and told him about the mower and he was
speechless. 

 

Good work all, Buckeye

Doug,

 

I'm in.  Do I assume correctly that the deal here is to split the costs
evenly ie: "chip in",  or the donation amounts are randomly up to the donor?

I'm in too Doug and it's good that we've got all winter to get the tractor
set up.  Those hours Bob won't be spending cutting grass can be spent on the
bike.  Guess he needs to get started on some routes out by the new
homestead.  If he will be living in Nottingham he won't be that far from
White Clay State Park.  Maybe he could do a mtn bike ride there--I've always
wanted to check that out.

Deb

I am so happy with the overwhelming response to the lawnmower idea for Bob
Martin; I need to say again "this is another reason I love this bicycle
club"!!! 

 

I talked to Bob last week about his need for a lawnmower, and I offered to
give him my old mower.  He was thankful for the offer but was concerned
about the repair.  That's when I decided I needed to give it to him in
working condition.  I have searched on-line for a rebuilt engine and I also
stopped at a John Deer dealer to price a replacement.  I found the cost of a
replacement engine to be more then the tractor is worth, so I called my
brother-in-law in Georgia.  My brother-in-law Gene, is a John Deer repair
technician and has a replacement engine he is willing to sell to me at a
reasonable cost, although he insists on installing it as a favor to me..  We
now have all winter long to replace the engine and get the tractor to Bob.  

 

 

Buckeye
