A couple months ago a windstorm blew my machinery shed down and done a lot of damage to the barn I have my cattle working facilities in. Finding anybody to do anything is about impossible. I contacted an Amish boy that I had gotten his phone number and a few days later he and another (riding on the fender) came to my house on his tractor and didn't look a day over 15-16 if that. We have 200-300 Amish that have settled here local and more moving in. We talked it over and he said he could get started in about 4 weeks. After they arrived a month later, in 4 days they had me a machinery shed built, a shed on the back of my building and a new roof on my barn (that had a lot of wind damage, leaks, needed rotten wood replace under the metal, rusted roof with holes, and older than me) completed. I rented a 20' reach Telehandler from A1 at Morristown to make their job easier and safer. The guys worked from 7am-7pm and barely took a break, and no lost motion. It would have taken two Englishman 2-3 weeks, and I might have even a lawsuit on my hands the way everybody is looking for one. I paid the guys and gave each one a nice chainsaw when they left (It put a big smile on their face)
