What it is like to be a shovel in the hands of a missionary doing service?

It is awesome that is what it is. This is a little video I made the other day while shoveling snow outside our house. We started there and than moved on to some of the people that are teaching and a few members when we ran out of people that we knew to help so (after a little convincing from Elder Galke)  we pulled up the car and just started shoveling, the first man we talked to said he wanted the exercise. We went next door and shoveled a Driveway no one was home. I am happy to think that they came home after a long day and found a clean driveway waiting for them. We moved down the street two doors and started shoveling some more.
Part way through a Lady came out in pajamas and said "You don't have to do that I do not have any money to pay you."
We said "That's fine we are your neighbors and we just want to do something nice for you."
"Really"
"Yup"
"Am I being punked."
"Nope just some good ole fashion serves.
Later on she came out and we talked a little. We were able to tell her that we are missionaries and that I am from Arizona and Elder Galke was from Panama. We told her that part of our mission was to go out and serve other people. She told us that we could come back the next day and she would have money but we haven't gone back yet. ;)
