The family cleaned our gutters last year when we were gone and we never knew that they did it. This fall we heard a noise and a truck was pulling into our yard with the bucket attached. Bryce was in the driver's seat. I think he is 12. His Mom and Dad give him many grown up things to do. He is so reliable and helpful. He comes over and rakes our leaves without our asking him. He is Audra's brother and she helps me a lot too.
Bryce operated the bucket himself. He avoided bumping into the gutters and paid attention to what he was doing. He maneuvered the bucket up and down...not in a show off way.
His Dad was on the ground just to be safe...there to answer Bryce's questions, should he have any. Bryce used a small powerful leaf blower to blow the leaves out. The gutters were dirty. 
Here he is again. He loves doing all things mechanical. He drove a golf cart around our yards a couple of years ago, giving the kids a ride at their family birthday party. He's never wild or crazy...Very serious about what he is doing. He's mowed their lawn for a couple of years now with a riding mower. Last year his Dad bought a Gator and Bryce drives that around with Audra as a passenger.
Now he is starting to come down. The job didn't take long. We thought this was an unusual way to do this job. No one had to climb a ladder. Not everyone owns a bucket....but Bryce is glad that his Dad does I'll bet. He swept the sidewalks and he and his Dad drove away to their house next door. This helped us so much. We were so thankful. They are just the best neighbors...and the kids are great.Balisha
