    How cool! You are a great role model to your DD and so are those women. Nice that you gave them stuff. I never knew they had solas covers like that.

    As we were walking back to our car, my daughter looked up at me and said, "You were just really nice to complete strangers." I said, "You don't often have the opportunity to be kind to strangers. Feels good, doesn't it?" She nodded.

    I was floating high for another two hours.

    Great Story Roxy!

    I've always loved the expression "Practice Random Kindness and Senseless Acts of Beauty" and I think you depicted it in a lovely and concrete manner here. Thanks for sharing this!
