Canadian neighbour...

Big, big wet sloppy winter storm. Trees leaning heavily from frozen rain weight. Some down.

Background: Buddy, my new very Christian neighbour , visits us/his neighbours with his new snowblower. This time it's too wet to use.

Noticed this time HIS OWN driveway was a mess and if left that way would freeze into a disaster. Thought he was away. Car not in usual spot. So I started to clean it. Halfway through he came out to help.

Conversationally told me his arthritis makes shoveling a bit painful. He bought the snowblower so he could continue to help his neighbours. Woah! What?! What?!

Showed him a new way to clear the half frozen slop. Clean as a whistle when it was done. Buddy was raised in Etobicoke ON... just down the road from where I used to live there, when he was there. No way.
