Friday morning, Chris and I took our recycling to the recycling center at Teklinika, and we saw two young women huddled behind the food locker, trying to make their breakfast. One had on flip-flops, and it was obvious they were both very cold. We talked with them a minute and found out they are employed by Aramark, the concessionaire, and they had gone hiking yesterday. Last night it rained very hard, and somehow Jess's boots ended up getting soaking wet. So she put on her flip-flops.
They were going to take the 12:50 bus out, but they knew their chances of catching a ride were slim, so they would have to wait longer. I couldn't stand the thought of their sitting at the bus stop for an hour, freezing. So I invited them in.
About an hour later, Jess and Katie were sitting in the RV drinking tea and coffee.
It worked out well for all of us. We learned about the way the park works, I met a big Packers fan, and they got warm. Bart and Jerri offered to take them to their employee camp where they live, which was much better than riding the bus. They enjoyed a little pampering, and we made new friends. Everyone won!
