you don't see this everyday [2]

Walking past my neighbor's house this morning, I noticed that they were shoveling a path to the middle of the yard. I watched for a couple of moments and then I saw it. They got to the middle of the yard and then they put down the shovel and placed the dog that they had been holding in their hand in the middle of the cleared out area. I though to myself, now that is something that you don't see everyday.
