The naked shovellertrekked down his street with one hand tucked behind his back and a shovel in the other.

Earle thoughthe was just going to clear her driveway, but when he got down on one kneeflowers in hand and cigarette in mouth she saw a sign taped to his shovel.

It said 'Angie Earle: Marry Me!'

After stopping to catch her breath,Earle quickly said yes.
