Oldcoach, we had about eight inches of snow in our two car driveway. I shoveled a path to the newspaper box when the "boss" hollered "Jim, doctor told you no"! 30 minutes a cup of coffee later I was wondering how I was going to get that snow off our driveway.

The door bell rings and there stands three little girls (12/13 Years old I guess) "would you like your driveway shoveled" for $20.00". You bet. A couple of minutes later I raised the garage door to see how they were doing.

I begin laughing----three little girls and one small snow shovel between the three. I had two snow shovels in the garage which soon were in the girls hands. They did a great job---earning $20.00 and a tip----plus some of my wife's extra special hot chocolate. Only in America! My glass Had been filled and runneth over.
