Such NICE people

     Lessons I learned during a rather cold two hours outside the Winn-Dixie on Carter Hill Rd. this afternoon:

• People are TRULY nice. (OK, not fair. I knew that already. But it is nice to have it confirmed.) Website editor Jay came by and we were able to visit for a while, Always nice, even when he corrects my speling spelling.

• Sometimes the people who look the least able to contribute to a good cause, do. One lady told me about being given a place to stay by the Salvation Army one year. She's now in the process of buying her own home. Sweet.
• One of those knitted "beanie" hats would be a good investment for the season.
• People are truly, truly nice.

     Thanks to everyone who came by and gave change, dollars and checks. I have no idea what the total was, but at the end of the two hours it was getting difficult to push the cash into the kettle. And that's a good thing!

Bless you.
