Yesterday morning, this is where I was literally stopped in my tracks. I was trying to make [tire] tracks in more than a foot of snow that had been falling for about 48 hours. I was almost at my destination, the Kathy Lillis Chapel, to set up for the 10:00 a.m. worship service.
Thinking it would be a good idea to turn my car around and park it at Shiloh & Poly, I got totally crosswise the street. I got out of the car to shovel out from under the tires, and two Good Sams stopped to render aid. I knew I was really in Montana when the guy in the city snowplow hopped down from the driver's seat, clad in a T-shirt and jeans, to survey my hapless situation. Soon he was joined by the driver of a small SUV, and together they gave me a push in the right direction.
The best thing in the world is to do the right thing at the right time without being told to do it. Blessings on those two Good Samaritans.
In peace,
