Mermaid, Don't Hate Me... but I pickup up another hitch-hiker yesterday. You will be glad to know that I survived another one. This one was a nicely dressed lady, from Memphis, TN who was walking away from her Lexus SUV, which ran out of gas. You just never know. ;-)

Oh gosh, mermaid, you are going to hate me even more. This morning I stopped on the 331 bridge to help a guy change his bicycle tire. He had no clue. Unfortunately, his CO2 cartridges didn't work well, and we gave him a lift to my house to pump up his tire and send him on his way. He is a lawyer from Mississippi.
Was his name Charlie Wright? :idontno:

You are thoughtful. Mr. JR stopped the other day in our town to give a homeless man a ride to the next bus stop. He'd just bought a portable tv from a garage sale in our neighborhood and was trying to balance it on his bike, etc. My husband wanted to help. Said the man probably hadn't bathed in awhile. The man was very grateful & thanked him over and over. Mr. JR tried to give him a $20 but he wouldn't accept it. Most people wouldn't have given him a 2nd look. We are very fortunate to be able to help others. (But sometimes it is risky!!)

I hope that SJ is passing by if I ever need to change my tire cause I'd be clueless too. It's just a shame that there are so many loonies in the world that we have to be afraid to be kind. :(

Pick up any more stragglers, Smiling JOe, and that new beach taxi service is going to be breathing down your neck about you stealing away all their business. 😀
