Just as I was about to call my husband to come and help me change the tire, this young 20 something young man walks up and asks me if I would need help with changing the tire. It turns out he was behind me in traffic and when he saw I had a flat, he pulled out of traffic and stopped to help. He said it was his Christian duty to help others. How wonderful is that! :D

But wait, it gets better. After I get to my home town I stop at the local tire shop where we usually take our business and have the tire fixed. When the guys there are finished, they tell me no charge today! I asked, what is the occasion, that there is no charge for the tire repair. The guy at the shop said, times are too tough for everyone, and they just want their customers to have the money they need to buy gas.

Now how cool is that? :D There are still some good people in the world.....besides all you guys here on this board. It makes my heart warm to think about it. :-D :-D
still great people in the world and I am glad you found them.
