Helping the neighbors

The other day when we were outside playing and enjoying the nice weather, our elderly neighbors came to say hi and see how we survived the winter.  We talked for quite a while and it was mentioned that Dan is laid off from his work which is known for its plumbing and heating and cooling.  Dan has some knowledge in plumbing and can fix easy problems even though he works at a sheet metal fabricator.  They then said that their sink is leaking and not working.  So Dan went over to see if he could fix it. 

He had to go to the hardware store to buy some parts, which they gave him money for.  He was done within a half and hour and patched everything up.  As a thank you for helping them, our neighbors gave Dan $60 and a box full of food!

In the box was:

- bread

- peanut butter

- crackers

- 4 boxes of cereal

- a huge can of pork and beans

- spaghetti sauce

- 2 boxes of spaghetti noodles

- dark corn syrup

It was very kind of them to give us all that food and some money.  I am glad Dan was able to help them and fix the problem.
