No Strangers In a Snow Storm

Living in the Midwest I have grown use to the fact of snow, and having attended basic in Missouri and AIT in Arizona it was not hard to belive that people have not seen snow. Most southern folk have not seen snow this caused problems in basic when Drill Sergeant forced us to shovel. The souther folk were more amazed by this white wonder falling from the sky, after their amazement vanished they complained about the cold then how shoveling was too hard, but that is besides the point
Back to the midwest this winter we have already have a ton of snow. The first major snowfall of this winter I spent with my girlfriend, we were suppose to spend the night watching movies and going out to dinner. None the less we had to call our date night short because of the snow, I came home and shoveled the sidewalk and driveway because more snow was in the forecast. I wake up the next day to a shoveled sidewalk and drive way (I thank my parents for that). As I was leaving for work I saw my neighbor snowblowing the blocks sidewalks. On the way to work, a drive that usually takes 5 min took 15, I saw a few people in the ditch and total strangers helping pull them out. While at work we had a slow night, I made my first snowball in over a year and threw it at other people. A worker at the gas station that my resturant is located in spent all night shoveling the snow while his boss plowed the parking lot. I heard stories of people helping strangers get from place to place from customers that came in. When I got home my car got stuck in the road in front of my house, I ran inside and got help to shovel the driveway and my car out of the road. At the same time another neighbor was snowblowing the sidewalk (on my block none of the neighbors talk too much).
I wake up the next morning to go to work once again the sidwalk was open, but the best part of the morning was seeing total strangers helping eachother dig their cars out of the road after they had been plowed in by the snow trucks. I saw on the interstate by work a car completly covered snow and people digging it out, I'm not sure if it was the owners or not, the same thing was going on right next to work in the drainage ditch. As work went on I heard stories of men with trucks pulling people out, thats when I realized there are no strangers in a snow storm
