Keith can’t live without his lawnmower and cuts his lawn every five days up until Thanksgiving. “If my grass is not the greenest on my side of the fence, there is a serious problem!”

“My co-workers and colleagues come to me to help with anything with an engine — cars, motorcycles, power equipment or tools. It’s not unusual one weekend to fix a trimmer and the next be working on a skid-steer loader.”
