Hi, I’m Ben!

Hi, I’m Ben!

My dad has been pushing me to start posting on Steemit, and I’ve decided to give it a try. I am 16, living in the bad-weathered state of Michigan. I love doing activities that involve water, like swimming and boating. I guess Michigan has done that to me.

I don’t have much experience with writing posts like this, so it will take some getting used to. I’ve currently got some posts planned, sharing my experiences with working on a Yamaha dirt bike that had not started in 6 years, as well as fixing a compressor we found in the trash that wasn’t pumping regulated air. Hopefully I will have these done within this week.

Thanks for reading!

Hey Ben, good to read your post - as someone who also spends a great deal of time taking things to bits to fix them (and often putting them back together with a few leftover bits 0_o ) I will be keen to read how you get on with the dirt bike and compressor. Always fun to be had on the water, we don't have too many lakes near us but it would be nice to go out on the water again. I have followed, upvoted and resteemed your post - which I think are good things but I am still getting used to this myself!

Thanks for the support. I usually follow the same guidelines of taking forever to fix something and usually being left with some bits and pieces. The lake has always been a great enjoyment of mine too. Followed :)

Welcome to steemit Ben. You will have a lot of fun here even more than flying the kite because your dad is in an expert on social media (not as expert flying the kite though). You are very lucky to have such a great dad.

Keep up the good work my dear. Don't worry about writing, my son is even younger than you learned it all here. Keep putting in the effort, just make steemit a part of your life and posts, memes and articles will come automatically.

God Bless and Lot of Success to you
Manjit

Thank you very much, Manjit. My dad has already been giving his "advice" on what to do on Steemit. I'm already having a lot of fun here on Steemit by just reading everyone's comments. Thanks for the resteem! Followed :)

Very good Ben. I am certain that you will be a great success here on steemit :))
