“The Value of Patience

Day 2 Sunday (8/24)

Last night’s stay at the hotel across the highway from the garage would have been more fun had it been expected, or if I had at least had someone to share it with, but I dealt with the circumstances pretty well. At breakfast I met a family from Wisconsin and had a nice conversation about teaching as the father turned out to be from the West Bend school district.

Since I was fortunate enough to spend the day (as well as my inheritance) at the shop waiting for necessary repairs to be made, I had the pleasure of meeting several interesting people, including an older gentleman with whom I had one of the best genuine conversations in quite a while.

By 5 pm I was on the road again and two hours later I pulled into the driveway of my uncle’s family with hamburgers on the grill. Thanks guys!!! You’re awesome!!!!!!
