Erik, I would've asked KEVIN (what they're referred to on the internet) if he was going to pay you for fixing the sidewalk and when he said No then I'd ask him why he cares what you do to it then. And if he said that youre wasting your time just tell him that its YOURS to waste and he shouldn't worry about it.
I have to say that you and Landon are a great team. He's such a great leaner and doesn't have a problem working or helping. Maybe the "visitor" will be motivated to do more than wonder about what you are doing. Great job 👏
Your son works harder than most adults, it must be gratifying to know that you are the example he is following, great job dad. I’m sure that he will grow up to be a much better person because of parenting he has received.👍
That kid is growing up a little with every load on that dirt wrench. Working with dad like that, by the time he's 18 he'll be built like a beast and have a great work ethic. No father could give his son a better gift.
Perhaps he was angry because now he also had to clear his overgrown path? Never mind him, you and your assistent did a great job, giving a good example for the neighborhood to do the same, and made a lady feel proud of her front yard again. 🎉 Who has to redo the concrete, the city or the home owners?
Usually the city owns the sidewalks. The easement ends right behind the sidewalks but the city wants us to maintain them. Like in winter. They hold you responsible for clearing them. They may make the homeowners responsible. Just have to call the city to ask that.
@@TheBart49 In Poland city own sidewalk so you cant drink beer on sidewalk next to your house. But in winter if you not clear ice and someone will break his leg then its YOUR sidewalk and YOUR fault :D
Yeah that looks soil from east is the Mississippi River. Ha ha. From TN and live in NM. Haven't seen dirt that color in YEARS. But hey, I only have to mow my yard 3 timea a year. Ha ha ha.
This kid is one hard worker I could use him this spring I am widowed now so I can’t believe how much our men do for us you all are really good people needs more like you
A lot of folks run there mouths and never help anyone , So therefore what they have to say is null and void. Also that boy is a keeper Lol he struggles but never gives up God Bless Y'all and keep on helping folks
Landon is such a role model for his peer group at school and church. I can see him doing his own channel someday of peer group clean ups. As for the intruder on this good deed- what is with people today?????? Thank you Erik and Landon for another uplifting video!
The enemy has agents and has blinded the eyes of many. Negativity is evil…. ‘Kevin’ even says, “If we call would do that…..” his conscience is speaking….
I have followed Your Channel for Two Years. What a selfless Man You are for Helping Others. And therefore instilling in Landon a work ethic such as Your own. Landon is a Handsome Young Man and a terrific Worker, He puts Grownups to shame He didn’t waste time by asking what next, He knew what was next and Stepped up and did it. Way to go Landon. Great job.
I enjoy watching seeing both of you work together. Landon is growing Mentally and physically. He must have a Great Mom and Dad :) Reminds me of the old Proverb, : ‘Give a man a fish and he will eat for a day. Teach a man how to fish and you feed him for a lifetime.’ Too many negative People that have nothing to smile about or be thankful for. You guys are refreshing !
Landon did a fantastic job! As for the neighbor, he reminds me of my own. Feels like he runs the neighborhood, nothing good to say about anyone (except you, of course…until he’s talking to the next neighbor), constantly calling the city, etc. Just a miserable person.
We don't control what the neighbors down the street do or don't do. Take care of your own yard and home as best you can. Mind your own business but be kind. You did a great job with the clean up!
Eric, you and Landon did an awesome job! Hoping this guy went back to his house and watched your channel!! Grit and worthwhile transformations galore! And I will sound like a broken record but these are not just gifts to the homeowner, but the whole surrounding neighborhood! Stay safe and well…
My favorite part of your videos is when Landon helps out. Establishes a great work ethic in a young man growing up in a society where people just expect to be given things. Good for him. He will thank you one day. And the bond that you two create is irreplaceable. Keep up the great work!!
Tell your son "Nice work!" What a ridiculous accumulation on that sidewalk. You might use your blower first next time to get rid of the leaves,etc. That guy wasn't as bad as I expected, but I didn't see him offering a hand or showing you his immaculate sidewalk.
You two did a great job! If I see someone working like that I would be outside trying to make mine better too. It’s important to help out those who need help like that❤️
You were helping the neighborhood and also doing what the homeowner asked. The upset neighbor just doesn’t want to clean his own sidewalks! That is on him. You did an excellent job! Great work!
Oh no...not again! I watched the episode with the "Karen" encounter! I love how you are cordial to people who have to speak their mind...which they don't have too. God bless you and your family for everything yall do to help the communities. I am so proud to know there are still great ahhhhmazing people like you that still exist! Love ya'll and God bless!
I did lawn care for over 30 years as a side job,and I tried hiring young guys to help out,but I usually ended up out working them.Your son is a hard worker.Great job you guys did.
You two really knocked that out! Landon really went to town there. Great job! Now that you’ve unburied the sidewalk, maybe the city will now be able to see what needs to be replaced.
Your son has grown up so much from the 1st time I saw him. I love seeing a father teach work habits. He will make a wife proud one day. God Bless you and your family.
You have shown the neighbors what their sidewalks should look like and there is nothing more that can be done. The gentleman must have been in a bad mood. You worked hard enough with your dream and it's a joy to see it. Congratulations, great job!💯👍👍
Uour son did a great job and showed that he is growing into a fine young man. That was a really tough job with the grass so thick on the sidewalk. Great job and thanks for sharing and giving back to those in need.
Big thumbs up for Landon What a big help he was to you Hope I got his name right That my friend was a huge job Always look forward to seeing your videos. Keep up the awesome work you do .....
That young man is a hard worker! Great job by both of you ! I'd love to see safety glasses used when operating equipment. I'd hate to see any accidents happen. Love watching. Thanks for what you do.
Patricia Vincent Yes, you sure do have a great helper! People sure get mad when you are doing something for someone else and not them. You are a very kind to help people out like you do.
Erik you and Landon are a great team. That was a beast of a sidewalk. Our city would never allow that. The homeowner would get a notice to clean that up. Interesting neighbor. Seems like he had nothing better to do. Lol As always, your generosity cleaned up another eyesore.
Good on you Erik. Perhaps this will encourage others in the neighborhood to look to their own yards and sidewalks. Or even, goodness knows, help out their neighbors, just like you did. God bless you and your family. You should be proud your son is a role model for that feckless neighbor. Well done Landon.
I'm surprised how much I enjoy watching you clean up so many sidewalks! And the young man who helps you tries so hard...he does a great job and it will get easier for him when he gets a little bigger. What great exercise!
Looks so nice and “finished “. I try to keep my sidewalk trimmed. Also keep the snow shoveled. I have four lots and parking for four. Just as the snow stops, I put on my cleats and hat, then out I go. Did I say, I’m 77 years young? Again, I admire the work you do. That young man, did an excellent job. I’m sure you’re proud of him. God bless you both.
I think the guy admired what you were doing, in the end. I can understand his frustration with people who do absolutely nothing with their property for years, but when you said "she", it gave him pause to think. I thought you handled it perfectly by just smiling and saying it makes the neighbourhood look nice. And he had to agree. Not everything is about money. Teaching your kid to do good deeds, doing something just to make it safer to walk and more attractive to look at, doing something for others with no thought of reward -- those are all invaluable. You can't put a price on the sense of satisfaction and happiness you get from doing something like this.
My goodness, Landon is getting stronger by the day! What an example he sets! You and your wife must be very proud of him! Keep up the good work Landon!
He clearly has nothing better to do than make an issue out of things that have nothing to do with him. You and Landon keep doing what you are doing it's valued by us all. Take care.
I dont think that guy was a karen. He said he admired your grit. I agree, you guys did a heck of a job. That shoveling is hard work. You dont do the work for a reward you are helping people in need and doing your best with what you have to work with. Ideally, the sidewalk would be busted up....cut the tree roots and replaced with new concrete. That could run thousands of dollars....You gave them access to the sidewalk again. You are not responsible for the current condition of the sidewalk.. God bless...watching from Baltimore
OMG!! I’m shocked!! I can’t believe what an awesome job you both did!! Now for Ken being noisy, he needs to mind his own business!! Lol!! God bless you all!!
Kudos to Landon! That is backbreaking work. Makes you wonder what the adults are doing. As for the intruder, I cannot, for the life of me, understand how someone just goes and butts into someone else's business. Damn, people, go clean up your own backyard! !
You are instilling in him such valuable attributes...work ethic, compassion for others, and duty to help your neighbors and community. Great job and great kid.
You did good. Now the city has to do their part and maintain it. The man may have been frustrated. Now he has to go and do his sidewalk. The whole block let it go. That’s the sad part. Landon is looking at you going - one day I’m going to be as strong as Dad! He really sees you as a superhero.
He wasn't angry, he just wanted a chance to show both some amazement, naturally, since you're making such a huge difference, and some support to some fellas - you and your son and buddy - for getting the sidewalk cleaned off. Let him have a bit of his happiness here.
Erik, that was outstanding work. But to what avail. The amount of snow the you receive in Michigan, the home owner now has to clean the sidewalk, that your hard work unveiled. Your act of kindness is beyond words. Thank you
Landon is such a great helper!! He has really good work ethic to come out with you and see how you help your community! He certainly is NOT like many kids these days that really have no idea what a days work feels like. I am so VERY PROUD of him and he doesn’t even know me! 😆👍❤️
My favorite yard work experience was cleaning covered sidewalks and sewer access covers. Uncovering and cleaning those areas gave me great satisfaction. Seeing the straight lines of the edges and walking down the clean path was wonderful. Thanks for the chance to relive those times.
I don’t understand why he was criticizing The work you and your son have done. All he had to say was wow you’re doing a great job and that looks amazing. I truly wonder what the sidewalk in front of his house looks like.
I love the fact that your son comes with you to help; he seems to have a great technique going. You do amazing work! What was that guy's point? Keep up the good work.
Great job! That was a LOT of work to unearth that sidewalk. I'm sure it had been buried for a long time. Curious if the existing resident had ever seen it. As far as the guy I think he was just being the typical nosy neighbor that needed to share his opinion. The fact he didn't know who lived there was a tell that indicated the value of it. Next to nill. Great job again.
I don't think he's a Karen. 😔 He was just frustrated with how people can own property and just let things go without either hiring someone, having family help, or by the Grace of God have people like you volunteer to help (thanks). I'd give him some slack because he has probably been frustrated by this for years! I have neighbors like that and they are young and have gainful employment, with family nearby. 😔
@@toontown0633 You missed the point. We're talking about him and his frustration, not the house. I have a feeling that YOU wouldn't want to be "prejudged" based on your expressing your frustration... Just saying bruh!
Well said, DH. Exactly what I was thinking. Yes, he started out confrontational, but in the end he sounded frustrated that people are not taking care of their properties.
Landon is such a fine young man. With all the shoving he did. He’s back must hurt him along with his dad’s back That boy is amazing like his wonderful dad Eric. How many fathers and sons do this kind of work for nothing. They have a special bond and they make such a good team. I love that the Eric is passing off his kindness, caring and work ethic for other people to his son. Eric takes on such hard jobs and he works his tail off helping people I think the man was amazed how hard you both worked for nothing. You don’t see that much in this world today. There’s a special place in heaven for you both.
Kevin sounded jealous, 😢 now his place looks cluttered. Keep up the great work you guys are doing. Ignore Kevin ! Landon is a hardworking young man . Love seeing him on your videos.
Landon has gone through a growth spurt! He is getting so tall. And he is SUCH a hard worker. 👍 I don't think the neighbor was mad at what you were doing. He sounded frustrated from living with neighbors who for years neglected their property. Not just the property you were working on but others too. So collectively as a street or community it got him frustrated.
In fl the sidewalks are required to be maintained by local gov. Thank you for doing your part clearing the sidewalk. This may help prevent falls and someone being not walking on road and keeping area safe.
Landon is brilliant - a thought though - as a person a little less than 6ft tall, I can attest that it makes a huge difference to get a three quarter shovel, rake etc - work is far easier when one is not fighting the unwieldiness and extra weight of oversize tools; buying a "ladies" garden fork was a revelation to me & now I purposefully seek out the hand tools for my size!. As he outgrows them, there will be others who will profit from having htem about, too
Kudos to you the work you do helping people and that young man gets kudos too he's not only building muscles but he doesn't complain helping you. Great kid!!!
I just wanted to say that both of you are doing a wonderful job and should be very proud of yourselves. But I also wanted to say that I am thoroughly impressed by the young man helping you. It’s really nice to see younger people outside and learning how to do things and give back to others. We have lost that tradition in this country as time goes by. So kudos to you and him for your amazing work !! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Looking at the boy's work, I remember how physically difficult it is to clear the ground with grass with a shovel. And the boy without gloves... You are great guys! Keep it up!
The before condition reminds me of my youth in the 1960's in a rural IL farm town with a lot of turn-of-the-20th-century homes where undulating, root-heaved, sod-covered sidewalks were the norm. All people had were gas small push mowers with no powered edgers, trimmers or leaf blowers in those days to keep the sidewalk well-groomed.
Maybe the gentleman is thinking of his own lost...unable to do what he did in his youth...or should have done...you guys are doing good things! God Bless you both💕🕊
The lessons in life your are teaching him and the gift of time you are giving him will last far beyond your time on this planet. Those memories are forever.
Erik so good to see you giving of your time once again Landon thank you for being such a big help and blessing to your dad. Landon you did make me cold watching especially when you took your jacket off. I'm a lady I wear a lot of dresses so I don't mind your legs being but when you took your coat off I really started to get cold. God bless you both for what you've done to bless another ignore the cranky neighbor he probably was just having a bad day and took it out on you guys it's good that you have God's grace and ability to keep being kind to people like that. God bless you both 🤗🤗☃️
Unless your going to help. Say thank you for making the neighborhood look better and go about your business. If he was that concerned, he should have offered to help. Good job guys!
She went crazy on me - ua-cam.com/video/fn5JhxuNb7U/v-deo.html
I wonder why it is anyone else's business if you are helping others. I mind my own business.
Erik, I would've asked KEVIN (what they're referred to on the internet) if he was going to pay you for fixing the sidewalk and when he said No then I'd ask him why he cares what you do to it then. And if he said that youre wasting your time just tell him that its YOURS to waste and he shouldn't worry about it.
Your young son is a little trouper. You’ve taught him well, Erik.
I have to say that you and Landon are a great team. He's such a great leaner and doesn't have a problem working or helping.
Maybe the "visitor" will be motivated to do more than wonder about what you are doing. Great job 👏
Kevin has guilt seeing you do what neighbors should have done- help.
Your son works harder than most adults, it must be gratifying to know that you are the example he is following, great job dad. I’m sure that he will grow up to be a much better person because of parenting he has received.👍
He does great
Anyone watching this kid work will have no hesitation hiring him. Great young man!
That kid is growing up a little with every load on that dirt wrench. Working with dad like that, by the time he's 18 he'll be built like a beast and have a great work ethic. No father could give his son a better gift.
The apple hasn't fallen far from the tree. ❤️
+100 to that. He worked so hard! You must be very proud of him.
Perhaps he was angry because now he also had to clear his overgrown path? Never mind him, you and your assistent did a great job, giving a good example for the neighborhood to do the same, and made a lady feel proud of her front yard again. 🎉 Who has to redo the concrete, the city or the home owners?
I'm not sure on the concrete, I just did as they asked
You did amazing job ! Hard working young man! Thanks for your kindness!
Usually the city owns the sidewalks. The easement ends right behind the sidewalks but the city wants us to maintain them. Like in winter. They hold you responsible for clearing them. They may make the homeowners responsible. Just have to call the city to ask that.
@@TheBart49 In Poland city own sidewalk so you cant drink beer on sidewalk next to your house. But in winter if you not clear ice and someone will break his leg then its YOUR sidewalk and YOUR fault :D
@@sajuente8235 same in ireland
That soil looks so rich. No wonder the grass went crazy. Bless you for all the hard work you and Landon did.
Thanks!
Yeah that looks soil from east is the Mississippi River. Ha ha. From TN and live in NM. Haven't seen dirt that color in YEARS. But hey, I only have to mow my yard 3 timea a year. Ha ha ha.
Years of decayed organic matter.
That's how topsoil is made.
You were much nicer to that neighbor than I would've been. Not one needs that kind of negativity! Keep you the good work guys!
Great job! Landon works harder than many adults I know.
Its the example he is growing up with.
Agree!
This kid is one hard worker I could use him this spring I am widowed now so I can’t believe how much our men do for us you all are really good people needs more like you
Thank you for teaching your child how to work, not many parents do this these days. What a great kid. 🎉🎉🎉
A lot of folks run there mouths and never help anyone , So therefore what they have to say is null and void. Also that boy is a keeper Lol he struggles but never gives up God Bless Y'all and keep on helping folks
:)
Landon is such a role model for his peer group at school and church. I can see him doing his own channel someday of peer group clean ups. As for the intruder on this good deed- what is with people today?????? Thank you Erik and Landon for another uplifting video!
Landon Is growing up so fast. He’s getting stronger and building muscles. I am so proud of him. He works so hard and never complains.
He has talked about doing a channel
He is great
The enemy has agents and has blinded the eyes of many. Negativity is evil…. ‘Kevin’ even says, “If we call would do that…..” his conscience is speaking….
@@OutdoorswithErik you could help him with that and he could be making money to save up.
Beautiful job Eric. Landon is learning work ethics right now. His muscle will come with time as he grows into his teen years. He’s a hard worker.
Thhank you

It is so refreshing to see a young man working. I do not see that often around here.
He is growing fast
Even Eric had trouble clearing the matted edges from the side walk. Great effort Landon
Big thumbs up for Landon
What a big help he was to you
Hope I got his name right
That my friend was a huge job
Always look forward to seeing your videos. Keep up the awesome work you do .....
He is amaziing
That young man is a hard worker! Great job by both of you ! I'd love to see safety glasses used when operating equipment. I'd hate to see any accidents happen. Love watching. Thanks for what you do.
Good call!
You and your son achieved an amazing result on this sidewalk! I got tired just watching how much effort went into it.
It was tiriing
I’m proud of you little man, keep doing good things in life with your dad.

One heck of a job. Yes, I have done sidewalks just like that. The finished product always makes me feel good.
You and Landon have nothing but my admiration for all the community work you do. Never let the Kens and Karens drag you down.
Happy I have cool neighbors. Enjoyed the video!
I'm surprised how much I enjoy watching you clean up so many sidewalks! And the young man who helps you tries so hard...he does a great job and it will get easier for him when he gets a little bigger. What great exercise!
Dang, Eric & Landon are killin' it with shoveling the sidewalk. That is HARD work. It's time to get a second shovel.... for Landon. Great job guys !🌱
Damn, That's a massive undertaking! Great Job Landon, glad you were there to help out your Dad!
I think that’s wonderful. Can we not all pitch in a little and be good neighbours again. We can clean up our neighbourhoods too. Good job.
What an amazing job you guys did!! That was A LOT of back breaking work!! God bless you for all your hard work!!
Looks so nice and “finished “. I try to keep my sidewalk trimmed. Also keep the snow shoveled. I have four lots and parking for four. Just as the snow stops, I put on my cleats and hat, then out I go. Did I say, I’m 77 years young?

I love the fact that your son comes with you to help; he seems to have a great technique going. You do amazing work! What was that guy's point? Keep up the good work.
Great job! That was a LOT of work to unearth that sidewalk. I'm sure it had been buried for a long time. Curious if the existing resident had ever seen it. As far as the guy I think he was just being the typical nosy neighbor that needed to share his opinion. The fact he didn't know who lived there was a tell that indicated the value of it. Next to nill. Great job again.
I don't think they have seen that part in a long time
Wow great job on those sidewalks you and your son are so nice to do that! ❤
I don't think he's a Karen. 😔 He was just frustrated with how people can own property and just let things go without either hiring someone, having family help, or by the Grace of God have people like you volunteer to help (thanks). I'd give him some slack because he has probably been frustrated by this for years! I have neighbors like that and they are young and have gainful employment, with family nearby. 😔
“Karen” and “elderly” are trendy words ppl use on social media.. In the real world good luck selling your home when houses around you look like that.
@@toontown0633 You missed the point. We're talking about him and his frustration, not the house. I have a feeling that YOU wouldn't want to be "prejudged" based on your expressing your frustration... Just saying bruh!
@@DHMeister I’m not bothered one bit by anyone’s opinions.
Well said, DH. Exactly what I was thinking. Yes, he started out confrontational, but in the end he sounded frustrated that people are not taking care of their properties.
@@robynconnolly6812 Thanks for showing some compassion and getting my point Robyn. 🤗
Your son…is an amazing MAN 😊❤ raising him right! Every child needs to know the value of hard work! You and your wife are awesome parents 😊❤
Landon is such a fine young man. With all the shoving he did. He’s back must hurt him along with his dad’s back That boy is amazing like his wonderful dad Eric. How many fathers and sons do this kind of work for nothing. They have a special bond and they make such a good team. I love that the Eric is passing off his kindness, caring and work ethic for other people to his son. Eric takes on such hard jobs and he works his tail off helping people I think the man was amazed how hard you both worked for nothing. You don’t see that much in this world today. There’s a special place in heaven for you both.
Landon is awesome!,, I love how he helps you and how you mentor him!
Great job Erik.and London.Dont let others deter you from helping others as good follows good.
Appreciate you
Kevin sounded jealous, 😢 now his place looks cluttered. Keep up the great work you guys are doing. Ignore Kevin ! Landon is a hardworking young man . Love seeing him on your videos.
I don't even know where he lived
Landon has gone through a growth spurt! He is getting so tall. And he is SUCH a hard worker. 👍 I don't think the neighbor was mad at what you were doing. He sounded frustrated from living with neighbors who for years neglected their property. Not just the property you were working on but others too. So collectively as a street or community it got him frustrated.
Valid point
So why didn't he offer to help?
Those sidewalks were extremely bad. Y'all did a great job.
Your raising a wonderful young man. He works so hard with you helping others that need help.
In fl the sidewalks are required to be maintained by local gov. Thank you for doing your part clearing the sidewalk. This may help prevent falls and someone being not walking on road and keeping area safe.
Your son is a really good worker.💚👍👍👍
Landon is brilliant - a thought though - as a person a little less than 6ft tall, I can attest that it makes a huge difference to get a three quarter shovel, rake etc - work is far easier when one is not fighting the unwieldiness and extra weight of oversize tools; buying a "ladies" garden fork was a revelation to me & now I purposefully seek out the hand tools for my size!.
As he outgrows them, there will be others who will profit from having htem about, too
Kudos to you the work you do helping people and that young man gets kudos too he's not only building muscles but he doesn't complain helping you. Great kid!!!
You son is a great little helper, and he's building muscles too. You both did an awesome job.
He is amazing
What an amazing Son you have…such a hard worker! You guys make a great team & you are so enjoyable to watch. Thank you for helping those in need.♥️
So people are only happy when they are mad...... you are the opposite a beam of love and joy to all who watch you do your fine quality work....
I just wanted to say that both of you are doing a wonderful job and should be very proud of yourselves. But I also wanted to say that I am thoroughly impressed by the young man helping you. It’s really nice to see younger people outside and learning how to do things and give back to others. We have lost that tradition in this country as time goes by. So kudos to you and him for your amazing work !! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Landon did a great job. That kid is a HARD WORKER!!!
Looking at the boy's work, I remember how physically difficult it is to clear the ground with grass with a shovel. And the boy without gloves...
You are great guys! Keep it up!
The before condition reminds me of my youth in the 1960's in a rural IL farm town with a lot of turn-of-the-20th-century homes where undulating, root-heaved, sod-covered sidewalks were the norm. All people had were gas small push mowers with no powered edgers, trimmers or leaf blowers in those days to keep the sidewalk well-groomed.
That neighbor sounds like he is worried he might have to pay to do his sidewalk now!!! Karma !!!!
Maybe the gentleman is thinking of his own lost...unable to do what he did in his youth...or should have done...you guys are doing good things! God Bless you both💕🕊
The lessons in life your are teaching him and the gift of time you are giving him will last far beyond your time on this planet. Those memories are forever.
Boy! That's some nice rich looking dirt!!
Make a nice addition to a flower bed!
Mini-me is learning fast Dad.....bit light but he will get there. Good work Son keep going, you good.
Beautiful job and well done Landon. Thank you for helping out and elderly neighbour!!
I appreciate that you do this. To look outside and enjoy your lawn improves your quality of life. You do an awsome job.
I'm very impressed with your son. Very rare to see hard-working kids these days. Good for him. You must be proud!
Erik so good to see you giving of your time once again Landon thank you for being such a big help and blessing to your dad. Landon you did make me cold watching especially when you took your jacket off. I'm a lady I wear a lot of dresses so I don't mind your legs being but when you took your coat off I really started to get cold. God bless you both for what you've done to bless another ignore the cranky neighbor he probably was just having a bad day and took it out on you guys it's good that you have God's grace and ability to keep being kind to people like that.
God bless you both 🤗🤗☃️
Unless your going to help. Say thank you for making the neighborhood look better and go about your business. If he was that concerned, he should have offered to help. Good job guys!
I think he was amazed at the job you did, a little miffed that his excuse for not doing his own was obviously gone lol. Great job you too
