The other day Hus and I went out cross country skiing. Although the snow was a bit sticky it was wonderful and the dog loves jumping into the snowbanks lining the trail.
While we were loading our skis in the back of the truck, a lady sheepishly approached me to ask if she could borrow my ski poles, since she had forgotten hers. No problem. We live in a small town so I figured that I probably knew of her or her family. But I didn't. She had just moved here from Vancouver, so I had to welcome her with a show of Northern friendliness.
When she dropped the poles off to Hus later in the afternoon, she reciprocated with a $20 Tim Horton's gift card! This was totally unexpected and not necessary; but I guess a little kindness and trust goes a long way!
