He came back and asked how much the run between our two houses was. I said about $1000 in material. He wrote me a check for $500 on the spot. It hadn't occured to me that we should share the cost so I didn't ask, he just offered, pretty cool I thought.

I did this with our neighbours in Dallas. We got along very well and it was never a hassle. But then, we were friendly and talked, which it sounds like never happens in this case.
