Our neighbor's daughter passed away and a big tree limb fell across one of their driveways so we took it upon ourselves, since people would be coming & going ) to saw and get rid of that limb. She called that night and asked had we seen anyone over there and laughed- I said, "Well there was a motely crue over there" and they were more than happy to help them. She laughed thru her tears.. Our hearts were broken over their daughter..

Another neighbor lost her husband at Christmas a few years back- he'd decorated all of the house & yard but one day we drove by and she was attempting to take it all down by herself so we stopped and asked could we help get it done faster. She was totally delighted and we were more than happy to help..

And that's NOT a nice thing? It's not like he's forcing them on anyone.

@occasionalrain I only grow my veggies in containers so I don't get a lot, but for me, it's often more about the enjoyment of growing them than in actually eating them, or at least not all of even the small harvest I get. I've been thinking about this summer just taking my extras to church and leaving in the foyer. I guess the front yard is another option. Maybe the mail lady would like them.

My first thought (since I have a warped mind) was that I hope people didn't take the table, too.

@occasionalrain Naw, thats okay. So whats the problem if he's no longer around?

I've got single men on either side of me and I wouldn't know them if I passed them on the street.

Oh, it is most definitely a nice thing; we all appreciate it? Sorry I was unclear.

Ha! Ok, that's how I took it since it was posted under UNWANTED good deeds. I know being a terrible gardener myself I always appreciate getting extra garden veggies from friends who do garden.
