A Time for Thanks in Nashville

Two weeks ago we were in the Elmer Diner in New Jersey when our waitress handed us a handwritten note that read something like "Thank you for your military service. Awhile ago someone paid for my meal and now I am paying it forward." We never knew who did it, but we were grateful. We decided then that we would do the same.

Today at brunch we saw several Vietnam Vets and we thanked them for their service. We chose one couple, wrote those same words on a card, and did the same for them.

Tonight at dinner when we went to pay our bill, a young lady came up to us, thanked me for my service, and informed us the bill was already paid. We never expected this either time. There are just some wonderful, good-hearted people in this world.

Tomorrow morning we head to North Little Rock, Arkansas.
