I thought I'd tell you one for your Thankful Thursday. When I was gassing up my car at Fred Meyer a week or so ago, the wind was really blowing, I was trying to hold onto the gas nozzle and my hat, and I thought I put my credit card in my pocket.

When I got over to the grocery store, I couldn't find my card. I went back to the pump several times and looked and asked if anyone turned it in.

I was asking at the station again, when a young man gassing up came up with my card in his hand. He had seen the wind flipping it around at the edge of the parking lot.

It feels so great to know there are still some kind people in the world. I wanted to give the young man my thanks.

Food for thought -- why are there no backup signals on the new suvs? It would save a lot of children's lives.
