Neighborhood service with the 100.
 
3 Attachment(s)
Just doing some "community service" (play time) with the 100.

Was driving down the road, just picking trash out of the ditch and fields. Went about a mile down the road and back.

I'd really like to find one of the little fender-ed IH carts. (Sorry, don't know the cart models yet --still kinda new to the IH game)

Have any of your machines helped out neighbors or done some service for the community?

Good on you!
Yep, after hurricane Ivan, me and the 127 with a log chain and a sheet of plywood skidded downed tree logs from backyards to the curb.
We did not cut for firewood, just cut small enough to roll onto the plywood and drag it out to the curb.
I also cut the lawns of the retirees within site of our house.
In return I get garden goodies, home baked goods, etc. LOL.

Nice job with the 100!

But be honest...

You really are collecting aluminum cans to finance the next IH.... :High5:

I have tilled a couple neighbors garden with my 2B tiller made around $150 last summer.

I actually hadn't thought of that --it would take a long time to finance a new spark-plug. Hahah.

I only usually do this two or three times a year.

I live next door to a 60 y.o woman who lives there by herself: I often mow her back yard and did a bit of snow removal on the driveway this winter; she surprised me with a card with some $$ in it this winter (although that's not why I was doing it).

I also plow a couple neighbors drives. One older guy is on oxygen and his wife is in a nursing home. He always wants to pay me but I won't take anything. Knowing that I helped him is worth it for me. Keep up the good work Bud! :beerchug:

The last big snow storm we got, I went over to the next door neighbors and cleared out his driveway. Rudy is around 80 and his son does come over to do snow removal but between the wind and the twoship plow, the snow was well over 2' high at the end of the driveway.

About the time I was done, the son came over and he thanked me. ( before he had the chance to offer anything, I told him I did it to help out his Dad :beerchug: )
