While driving to town I always have to pass the mission. Yesterday I had my camera with me as I was planning on taking pics of my kids in town. I got a bit distracted by this womanPopup LinkDESCRIPTION_HERE who was cold and wet but the mission is closed to her in the daytime. She seems so beat downPopup LinkDESCRIPTION_HERE and kept looking at the mission wishing.. I had to go on and what change as I sat in the car at the storePopup LinkDESCRIPTION_HERE , I wondered how many of these people were just a few paychecks away from the black plastic bag rain coat. For those of you wondering, my children and I pass out tickets to the homeless for meals at the mission, but sometimes I wonder how the ones way across town get there.
As we drove away from the store we passed the every year Spring Carnival that comes to townPopup LinkDESCRIPTION_HERE , those poor carnival workers, so wet!It is normally very hot and dry here. But nothing stops a kid and a carnival ridePopup LinkDESCRIPTION_HERE . The kids were so cute yelling at me "Hey take my picture", so I did. I wonder where the parents were?Popup LinkDESCRIPTION_HERE Funny note, I never took one picture of my kids...?
