Good or bad? Picture it, Holloween 2015, my wife and I went to Disney. We left Orlando late at night for an early start home. On a bridge, right around Savannah, Georgia on I95 in the pitch black of night, a good sized peice of metal flew into the front of our car, giving us an ever slight amount of air off the ground. We came to a stop on the side of the bridge with noone hurt, After an hour of cutting loose plastic off the bumper, we left for home. It was relatively uneventful the rest of the trip. $1800 in damages later, we finally got her car fixed. It was rather creepy sitting on the side of a dead highway bridge in the middle of the night.

When I was a little girl of about six, our family was driving from New Mexico to California to go to Disney. My sisters, ranging from 8 years to two years old were sprawled in the back of our station wagon. As we travelled through Arizona, I was noticing loose socks that were blowing around outside.

Then I saw someone's undies and said something to my mother. She hollered at my dad to stop the car.

He had packed our suitcases on top of the car and tied them down with cord. Evidently the cord has come loose and a suitcase flew open. Undies and socks and little girls' shorts were strewn all over the highway. Several cars stopped to help pick everything up. Everyone was laughing, except my mom. I guess she was embarrassed by the whole thing. She had my dad build a wooden storage thing to put on top of the car to hold the suitcases so that never happened again.  I just remembered how everyone stopped to help us gather everything up again.

Oh wow! What a mess! I'd have been laughing too. That's really cool that Good Samaritans stopped to help. :)

For thirty minutes we forgot about the heat and how hot it was inside the car and had the chance to connect with people as they helped us out. Can't beat that!
