It's nice to be able to help out

I took the scouts up in the mountains to do a little sledding last night. This morning one of them told me there was a Suburban stuck just up the road a bit. It was a late model Suburban stuck up to the top of the rear wheels in a snowbank, and the driver and his wife were trying to dig it out. I pulled up in the Blazer, hooked up my tow strap, and had them out in less than two minutes. It's fun when the old folks (both me and the Blazer) can help out the younger generation.
