Re: [BlindHandyMan] A little excitement in Hilo, oi...
Yes, the gardener is responsible, but I offered to first pay for the window replacement, and then tried to split the cost with him, and he insists he will pay for it. I've had this gardener for most of 19 years and he's just a nice man. I don't know how he survives on the amount of money he charges, but I usually have banana bread or cookies to give him when he does the yard. Not only is he paying for it, he's going to make all of the arrangements to get the window fixed. Yes, I do live a charmed life according to my friends. The gardener has some large accounts to do, office complexes, 7 11, and a couple others, so for his longtime customers, he doesn't raise his rates but his family gets lots of goodies. My husband is a retired photographer and graphic designer so he does some work for the gardener, taking pictures of his hula group and turning them into large posters. Probably much more than you wanted to know... Betsy At 01:56 AM 1/29/2009, you wrote: Betsy, did the gardener cause the glass to explode? If so, is he taking responsibility?

Re: [BlindHandyMan] A little excitement in Hilo, oi...
Most people do not realize how dangerous cutting grass can be. Since when our kids were young they were never left outside when our or the neighbors grass was being cut. Today we do not go out or let my guide dog out during that time period. I got that idea about thirty years ago when a co-worker was cutting the grass. His mower kicked a rock and it went through the windshield of the police car as it was going down the street. The cops very quickly exited the car with guns drawn. Every time the grass is being cut I think of that story. If that rock went through the windshield of a cop car just think what it could do to a kid. - Original Message - From: Betsy Whitney, Dolphin Press braill...@hawaii.rr.com To: blindhandyman@yahoogroups.com Sent: Thursday, January 29, 2009 5:18 PM Subject: Re: [BlindHandyMan] A little excitement in Hilo, oi...
