small town neighbors

<font color="blue"> When the time came my relator who is also an old neighbor tried to pay those that were showing up to keep my old place clean of snow and they all refused payment saying that all the years I was there I took care of them and now they were helping me.... </font>

Bob,

I understand! I lived in South Florida for what seemed like forever. If your house burned down the neighbors would complain because you are taking to long to clean up the ashes. So glad to be back in the country where people help each other.

Isn't it funny how some places are different than others.

My neighbors and I all will help each other whenever possible.

I have gotten up early in the dark and snow to plow my and about eight of the neighbors drives... I then went off to work... I came home to find all my walks shoveled. I didn't do them.. just ran off to work... I asked around and one person fessed up and said that I do alot for other people and they saw they weren't done so they did them... It was a very nice surprise...

Regards,
Chris
