Generosity of Strangers

 This whole trip has been a whirlwind of experiences with people, some good, others less good. At the visitor center of St Mary we met two absolutely fantastic ladies named Carol and Gail. They took us to their campsite which had a few pictures , fed us some of the best food I have eaten on the trip and hung out with us all night. In the morning we had fruit smoothies and veggie juice, got a free yoga class, and then had second breakfast. To describe these two women is almost next to impossible, because they were so great. Generous , funny, kind, thoughtful, you name it and they are the real deal. I made a passing comment as we left their company that we must be in for some bad luck, since they had been so nice to us. Gail laughed and said, "You gotta stop thinking of it like that and get out in front of karma, pay it forward", while Carol agreed.  Coming from people who obviously  are living it AND doing it ( a rare combo) i think she might have had a great point. So Carol & Gail if you read this know that  I cannot thank you enough, ever, and that I am striving to pay it forward to others!
