I go out for a few hours to shoot the bow & eat; then miss all of this good stuff.
I'm still waiting to see if he, or his mom, ever give an excuse for not returning. I side with Gugi, that the mom was the one carrying the ball & she is the one who dropped it. If I show up with my underage son & solicit work, then the success or failure of that encounter lies with me; even if my son shows and makes a complete a$$ of himself.
I doubt any excuse will do now, over a week has passed by, no apology was given, nor excuse tried, when I stopped by to see all the neighbors on the road this morning to let them know that there is a Mama and Baby Bear in the area, and to be extra careful until she moves on..
They simply said Thank You for the warning,,,
And no we did NOT get a pic of the cub, we turned the ATV's around and went the other way :p
If you think all of these problems are new or have somehow gotten worse in modern times, read "How the Other Half Lives" by Jacob Riis, accounting the terrible ills, illegal activities, and living conditions of the working poor in New York in 1890. Every generation idolizes the ones who came before, and bemoans the ones after.
It's a wonder that contract law was ever developed, since the breaking of verbal agreements is a phenomenon unique to the youth of today.
Yes that is what I also pointed out in the op..
"So I think back to when I was hustling lawn cutting jobs and shoveling snow for money at his age, and I can't remember ever not showing up, in fact I think Mom would have had a bit of a problem if I had left a neighbor hanging"
