Our new home teacher described his job as "moving dirt." It sounds like every little boy's dream job! Imagine getting paid to play in the dirt all day. He owns most of his own equipment. Over Christmas, he parked a front-end loader in his front yard and they strung Christmas lights all over it. Not your typical Christmas lawn ornament, but definitely festive.
About 7 inches of snow dumped on our driveway from this morning's storm. About an hour after Church got out, our home teacher drives his bobcat up our driveway, and plows out all that snow in about four passes. Our driveway is scraped clean down to the concrete. I waved; he waved back. It's a noisy bobcat, so that's all the conversation we have.
Five minutes after he finished, a pick-up truck full of the teacher's quorum pulls up. The teacher's quorum piles out and goes after the sidewalks. I walked out to thank them, and one of them points at the driveway and says the hard part's already done. I'm not so sure about that. We have a third of an acre on a corner lot, so we have a lot of sidewalk! They did it all. It took them about 15 minutes. Many shovels make light work.
Good people live around here. :)

Wow!! They are taking care of you already - aren't neighbors wonderful?/
Maybe I should move to Lehi? Actually my brother in law brought his snow blower and clean us out while we were in Beaver. That was SOOOOOOO NICE!!!!!
