Angels Among Us by Linda Lindsey

This is why I love Nevada. David took a turn for the worst yesterday and his two daughters got in the car and headed to NEVADA. They had car trouble in Battle Mountain. It is about 50 miles from Winnemucca where they could get a mechanic. They would have to wait till MONDAY and this was Saturday night. An older couple were just out for a walk and saw them. The girls had 2 babies and 2 preschoolers and the couple felt sorry for them. These wonderful people sent them on their way driving their nice double cab truck 300 miles. Perfect strangers didn't even ask their name and sent them off with their truck to use as long as needed. They didn't even ask their phone number. It touched my heart so much. It is great having the girls here. The lady told me on the phone that they had daughters and they would not want to be stranded. Her daughter is a writer for Virginia City. I hope we can have them stay with us sometimes. They truly lived the teaching "Do unto other's as you would that men should do to you." David is much improved and I am still baffled at the kindness of these perfect strangers.  People just don't do things like that. There are certainly Angels Among us.
