Stranger angels
It's hurricane season, and for now, a stream of cars continue through our tiny town looking for a place at the inn. Hurricane Irma has reared its ugly head this way and evacuees have flooded our area. My husband and I were busying ourselves in our home, getting ready to start our day. As I headed out to my car, there was a car in my yard as though someone had veered off from the road. And sitting in the middle of the yard was a man with a very young baby - 2 months old. I asked if they were ok, they said yes yes, just resting. I then asked if they needed anything and then they discussed and asked for hot water for their baby, to mix the formula. Of course, I said, I will be glad to. I went into the house, heated the water for their 2 thermoses, and prepared a bag with crackers, peanut butter, knife, apples, and some banana bread we had just prepared for a function. Four adults and an infant - from Tampa. They had slept in their car because there was no place to stay along the way
