It was Wednesday, when the weather forecast was dismal, but actual conditions were terrific.

I had tangled a tow rope in the jet ski drive and after Kevin worked for a few hours trying to extract it, I went across the cove to try to borrow a utility knife. I approached a family launching two jet skies and asked and the husband said, “Oh, I’ve fixed that problem a couple of times, including yesterday morning. I’ll be back here this evening and, if you call me, I’ll give a hand.” That evening, he towed our jet ski with his and then loaded it on his trailer. He had all the necessary tools and completed the job in about 30 minutes. He refused to accept any money for his time and work, but he did bring his little boy to the house for a large ice cream cone. What a nice person.

And what a great sunset!
