Luckily, the people in Iowa were very friendly. These five big guys PICKED UP THE CAR -with me and my sister in it- and put it right back on track!

Well, honey, we made it to New York for Thanksgiving all because of the kindness of strangers. That’s something I’m very grateful for and something I hope we see a lot more of in the new year.
