THANKS: And we'll pay it forward

On Sunday, July 19 we stopped at a Carl’s Jr. near Appleway to have a quick breakfast while traveling home. When we reached the drive-up window to pay for our meal, the server informed us that our meal had been paid for by the lady ahead of us because her young son wanted them to. We wanted to thank them for their act of kindness but did not know them and all we knew was she was driving a newer model Subaru Outback. After getting past the shock we realized just how special this random act of kindness was.

In today’s world it was so refreshing to know that there are children and adults who think about others and the world around them. Kudos and thanks to that young man and his mom who is obviously teaching her son the right things in life. Because of your thoughtfulness we will definitely be Paying it Forward with another act of random kindness for someone else. Thanks again!
