Many Thanks to Two Young Gentlemen.
Shoveling out the walkway from our front door to what would again be our driveway (after 2,000 cu. ft. of snow are plowed), I was most happy to welcome two young gentlemen from Rennell Drive offering assistance.
(First names start with C and P.) We quickly agreed on a fair price. In 15 minutes the walkway was spotless. Many thanks to them. Their parents, and Southport, should be proud of them.
