I give to a lot of charities. But one thing I do in our little community is I take my 2084 with its 451 snow blower and sneak around and blow out driveways. I do not take money for this and it gives me a real sense of doing something good for my neighbors when they did not even ask. I recall getting home all tired from work and still having to clean out my own driveway and often thinking how nice it would be if someone had done it while I was at work. I recall years ago I just went up the road cleaning out drives and one nice lady opened her door and said "How much do I owe you" to which I said maam if I charged for my services you could not afford me but a cup of coffee would be nice. She did tell me that her husband was still at work and had a bad heart and she was just praying for something good to happen and there I was.
