Dedicated to the general sights, news and funny happenings in the wonderful city of Windsor
I just want to put the kind neighbour's in my neighbourhood on here they went out of their ways today to help us dig out and also others that were stuck!!!
I am in need for a program or someone to help clear my driveway. Physically can not get it clear. Snowed in. If there is anyone willing to help I would greatly appreciate this.
To the young couple with the little dog named Cocoa, the woman who stopped and got out of her car and the older Asian gentleman who all helped me get unstuck from the packed snow at the end of my alley: Thank you from the bottom of my heart! You didn't have to, but you stopped to help a complete stranger for nothing more than a heartfelt thanks. I feel like I should have more to say but I don't have the words to express myself any clearer. You 4 are my idea of a hero.
Last night on my way home I needed gas, I stopped at the nearest gas station on Walker road. The parking lot was difficult to get through with my car but I was finally able to fuel up. Upon leaving, and because I have never been to this particular station, I missed all "no left turn" signs, and to my own embarrassment I attempted to turn left. Well there was a median in the middle of the road and I ended up ontop of the median almost bottoming out my car. I thought a tow truck would be the only answer.
As I walked back to the gas station to ask to use the phone, a good samaritan asked if I needed help, I told him I wasn't sure if we would be able to get it out, but it would he nice if we could try anyways. For the next 30-45 minutes we tried but with no success. The entire time we were trying more and more people took time out of thier nights (it was around 11pm) to help. I have never felt so grateful and proud of this city. There must have been 15 people helping. One of the guys who stopped had a tow cable, which we finaly used to pull my car out. There is still good left in this world and you guys truly warmed my heart. I cannot thank you enough. People stopped in horrible weather, very late at night to help me because of my own stupidity.
If any of you are reading this please comment or something so I can more personally thank you. I believe it was an esso, on Walker road infront of the beer store on Sunday night around 11pm.
Thank you Windsor.

My boyfriend and I just moved here from Australia and were not fully prepared for what the Windsor winter would bring us. We just got a new (old) RWD car with terrible tires for the snow that we could barely get out of the driveway. Two kind men helped push the car all the way down the back alley when it got stuck multiple times. Our car got stuck on the street, and more people helped us as they walked by. It was freezing cold and windy with an icy snow, and these people stopped and took the time to help a complete stranger. Thank you, fellow Windsorites!
Big Thank -you to my neighbour on Holly cres. Last night I thought you were driving around in the snow for fun, and then I realized after driving around the block a few times, you were making tire tracks for us to drive through! THANK YOU!
Thank you so much for the kindness of strangers shown last night on the corner of Vimy and Parent when my daughters Avenger was stuck in the middle of the road. A very kind young man in a pickup truck stopped and helped tremendously (I am sure you had other plans), and from there it trickled to a couple other kind people helping out as well!! I hope the rest of your evening was fabulous as you really made our night so much better!! Thank you again so much!
