Neighbor.....

Did my annual trip to town with LeRoy today. He is a neighbor down the road. He uses a pellet stove for heat. Once a year a retailer puts the brand of pellets we burn on sale so I hook up the car trailer and take him to pick up what ever he needs. I know he is not a spring chicken, I found out today that he is 77 years old. He insists on doing the bulk of the lifting......He gave me a bunch of grief for not calling him to help me unload my 4 tons. I picked up another ton today for us, LeRoy told me he will be down tomorrow in the A.M. to help me unload it. He told me today he is planning on living to be 100.....he is healthy enough to make it...

Every day he gets on his bicycle and rides up several hills to go get the news papers. He delivers ours to us daily. Next week he wants me to go town with him to pick up some 6x6's and trusses so he can rebuild his gazebo. I asked him if he was going to need my help with it and he told me no, just wants me to help him pick everything up.
