Lovely strangers

With a terrible cold still lingering, I couldn't think straight and drove out to Yaletown for a meeting without even bringing my wallet. I arrived, got out of the car and just realized that I didn't bring my wallet along... I called the number on the meter hoping that I can pay by phone with the credit card I had registered. Turns out, the credit card I had registered with was outdated. In a panic,I didn't know what to do. I had to go to the meeting. I felt completely helpless.

Luckily, two very nice gentlemen in their 60s parked behind me and saw me standing in front of the meter in a panic. I explained the situation to them, they smiled and immediately asked how much time I needed to park and fed the meter for me.

The sunshine, these gentlemen, and two other strangers who gave me directions made my heart warm and toasty today! Thanks starngers.
