We weren’t planning to take the extra time in the beginning, to going to Houston and dropping by to see you for a bit en route was a spur-of-the-moment thing. Sorry we missed you!

I don&#8217;t know what time we missed you, but we are sorry we did. Mother&#8217;s final doctor&#8217;s appt. was scheduled in the afternoon, but we lleft at about 7.00 am to take a cat to Wayne, visit with them for a couple of hours. They are doing great.

They had noted Friday nite that we were going to H on Monday, and since they were going on a buying trip that same day, they (she) invited us to meet them. We waited for 45 minutes, and had a leisurely and enjoyable meal with them. Then we went to a mall, and bought me a new shirt, and Mother a couple of outfits. got home about 9:30, but alas! Smiley didn&#8217;t mention you had been here. </p> <p>We had just gotten back fdrom Tennessee, after taking the Northern route through the snow covered mountains to North Carolina, then to Montgomery (all in one day&#8211;both stops werre business stops for the house) . Spent the night in Montgomery, then businesss next morning , then on to West Montgomery for the night. We could have made it in, but Mother was just gettiing over her illn ess, and I was MAJOR in the throws of it. We got home sometime on the 23rd. <br /> Once again, so sorry we missed you. Noel and Shannon are in Holyoak, don&#8217;t have any idea of their plan s. You may have the chance to see them,. I just haveno idea. Love you mjuch. D</p> Dear one, we were gone to Houston.

In the case I heard about the charge was something along the lines of “obstructing official business.” A 62-year-old woman in Cincinnati fed some meters to try to stop an officer from writing tickets on cars whose time had expired. A car parked at an expired meter is already illegaly parked. Feeding the meter would be an attempt to cover up the crime, regardless of who did it. Also, the time between the meter expiring and it being fed would be free, and we can’t very well have that now can we?

Thank you for the good wishes, and I wish for you the same and more. It’s up to you to decide what “more” is.

I like the idea of anonymous acts of kindness. I keep practicing them; I hope I never get so good that I don’t have to keep practicing. (For anyone who wants to start, keep in mind that feeding expired parking meters is illegal in some places.)
