I met someone new......

We are in a rural area and 2 houses on the farm.
When my late grandfather was alive the newspaper carrier would throw paper off at the road, but then realized my grandfather was not walking very well so the carrier would bring the paper to his door.

That is when we started thanking him at most holidays. Grandma would do the fruit cake. My grandparents passed away and my parents moved into their house and i moved into the big farmhouse. My father still gets the paper everyday and the newspaper carrier delivers my wifes amazon packages too.
We now do Tim Horton gift cards and the carrier brought our dog a giant bag of dog treats. ;-)
