they are so much fun, and more people should do them.

rake and run's.....not everyone even knows what im talking about when i say that. but its as simple as it sounds. its the community service side of a ding-dong ditch. but instead of ringing a doorbell, your making a difference. my friends and i do these a couple times a week all fall. its very simple. all you do is grab a bunch of rakes, walk around your neighborhood, and rake the yards of people who cant do it for themselves. it just makes you feel good, and its good for you. you guys have probably heard of it before, but for those who havent, its a lot of fun. and the only thing that could possibly make you feel better is that when we're done for the day, all of my friends come to my house and we watch a movie and drink hot cocoa and giggle the night away. all inall its a wonderful expierience. just make sure that the owners of the yard your raking actually want you to rake it. every once in a while you will come across someone who wanted to do it themselves, though it doesnt happen very often. well, there you have it. my first official post. tada.
