The recent snowstorm that hit the Spokane Valley Region in Washington state caused a lot of headaches in one neighborhood that had to deal with the trouble of snow on the streets and sidewalks that blanketed one neighborhood so bad that someone was needed to clear out the snow so that the roads and sidewalks could be clear to be able to walk and travel by auto to their destinations.
Alma Myers wanted to do her part to shovel the snow out of her sidewalk and driveway so her home could be safe to walk and travel by auto to her destination.
However since one of her children was under the weather which was not meant to be a pun, could not go outside to clear up the snow on the area outside of her home had the good fortune of seeing some neighborhood children use shovels to clear up the snow in her front yard.
Alma and her husband Bill decided to do something to repay the neighborhood children who assisted them in clearing up the sidewalks and roads in front of their home by having Bill go outside of his home, grab his shovel and assist his neighbors by clearing up the sidewalks and roadways while his wife baked cookies for everyone in the neighborhood.
As you know, teamwork in getting a neighborhood that experienced snowfall that blanketed their area was needed so the task of clearing up the snow from their front yards quickly and efficiently.
To borrow a line from the Golden State Warriors basketball team tee shirt slogan “There Is Strength In Numbers.”
Nice story great photo.
My pleasure to share great photos and stories on this site.
I have heard of the Amish due to that tragic shooting in Pennsylvania at a school where their form of living makes the Embera Indians of Panama look like the space age by comparison.
We should all take notice from this story.
Like the song title from The Brotherhood Of Man says “United We Stand.”
this is the definition of a community
That is true since when we all unite as one and help one another. We prosper.
as the Amish say “Many hands make light work…”
I have never heard of that saying from the Amish.
it is a very famous one, they say it all the time when raising barns or whatnot
When people come together in kindness many great things can happen.
That is so true since strength in numbers in a community during a natural disaster.
