I'm wearing a wrist brace!! We get pummeled with....Oh, I don't know, probably 6 feet of snow!!(May be a bit of exaggeration) I open my garage door this morning & my driveway is completely drifted in! The snowplow left a pile of huge rock hard chunks of snow at the end of my driveway. I don't even know where to begin! How the heck am I going to do this! Trying to shovel with one bad hand? Are you kidding me!!! I go back into the house & try to come up with an alternative to using a glove on my bad hand. When I hear the roar of a snow blower. I look out my window to see my neighbor clearing my driveway. This is where the spirit of human kindness really kicks in. Just when you think it can't get any worse. Someone comes along & rebuilds your confidence in humanity. So here is the man that saved my day!! I caught him doing another neighbors driveway. I think he did the entire street.

Okay, Rant over. Somebody wake me when Spring gets here.

Digidave -- That's a great story, thanks for sharing (or ranting, whatever). I hope your wrist heals up soon and that Beaver Dam has a little dry spell from the snow until then! Nice to be reminded that people really can be good.
