I had the day to myself, so I cooked some healthy and peppery chili.
For starters, the door bell rings and guess who is at my door? It"s the copper-top kid and he"s asking if"n I wanted the dead elm I had cut up. (He knows I do not have a wood stove). He saw the small stack from the bus window.
He got a chuckle that I"m doing the chili "my way", seeing as the keeper-of-the-keys is out of town.
So, we go on down the hill, and I have fresh gas in the saw, and we had re-cut some elm that would have been too big for their woodstove.
He said he had split all the other wood from a weekend or two ago. Good for him! I asked if he sorted the dead from the green, he said he had.
I wish it wouldn"t have rained, I was actually enjoying the cutting, picking up, and the un-rehearsed conversations that occur along he way.
We did use an old tractor an trailer; he"s decent at running that equipment, parking, clutch, trailering, etc. I"d say more in detail, but I"d rather say why I didn"t include a detail, rather than apologizing for too much being said.
He"s a good kid. I like the idea of him just stopping on by.
The chili tasted even better after simmering on the stove while we were out. He said no thanks if I made it hot. I didn"t know I"d have company.

It was on one such Saturday in the early 1940's when Sam was 16 years old that he ended up in Dennison, Kansas to watch a demonstration of a new tractor being put on by a local dealer.
