Incredibly nice people

So we are sitting here in the hotel and we get a call from the front desk. They say we have something at the front desk. So I walk down there and there really isn't anything for us. The girl at the desk was there with her roommate and she invited us to Thanksgiving dinner with them. She knew we were stranded and they said that it just wasn't right that we spend Thanksgiving in a hotel room and eating lunch at the Flying J. It was incredibly sweet of them. They know we don't have any transportation so they are going to pick us up at 1300 and then bring us back later since Sierra (the one working tonight at the desk) has to be at work at 1700. I just wanted to let everyone know that there are still really decent people out here. This is one of the things I miss about small towns. Everyone is genuinely nice. I am thankful on Thanksgiving that there are people out there who still care about strangers.

That's great that you two will have someone share there Turkeyday with you. Yes, there are still good people out there. Although, fewer in numbers these days. I have over the years spent many a holiday away from home and family. It "sucks" for sure! Have a good one and hope you are back on the road soon and that you make it home for TAH.
