wonderful stranger

I had Michael weed the backyard last night.  It wasn't a fun job and I knew it.  But Michael was willing to do it.  Two lots down from us they are putting in a backyard and there was a man clearing up some rocks with a front loader (?).  He saw Michael working by hand and instantly drove over and started clearing up all our weeds without saying a word.   It took him all of ten minutes and then he drove away.  Michael and I were so grateful!  A huge job turned into a job well done by someone we didn't even know. 
This is the after picture.  I don't have a before picture....but our yard was really awful.
