Trail Angels

Today’s Reflection

My father-in-law, who was hiking with a lap band because of a hernia, had left his lap band in an overnight shelter by mistake. [A “trail angel”] took a day off of work, drove to the trail head nearest that shelter [and] hiked to retrieve the band.

Today’s Question
