You can always depend on the kindness of strangers...

Just got back from taking the ExplosiveDaughter and her best friend to the railroad tracks behind our house, hoping for some old fashioned fun "squishing pennies".  We placed the pennies on the tracks, and waited.  And Waited.  And Waited...still nothing.

What was great about the situation is that a very nice guy from the adjoining plant pulled up in his truck and asked if we were broken down and needed some help.  I told him what we were doing, and he smiled and told us to be careful.

It is nice to be reminded every once in a while that there are really, really nice people out there who still care that other people are helped if needed.  I won't know who he is, but I certainly appreciate how willing he was to help take care of some people who might have been in need.
