ok… now I have to say that this is not something I do often or would really ever do again. BUT today I was prompted to pick up a hitch hiker. A nice young man named Travis on his way to Las Vegas to catch a plane to Louisiana so he can be with his girlfriend. She is in school.. taking a break to move out to Utah with him. He's a ski instructor.. and a charming young man. And as crazy as it seemed… {he could have been an axe murderer after all} this little bit of service was very rewarding. I hope he makes it. It makes me smile to see such young love at work. To think this young ski instructor is going to hitch hike across the state to fly to his love. wow.
In fact, it made me remember my younger years. Back when I was young.. and yes, foolish. Now don't get me wrong. I dont long to go back there, but I think that we could all use a little "foolish beat" in our heart from time to time.

r u nuts?!?!?!?! Nice Travis could have hacked you up into 600 milion pieces and served you to his family….with catsup!
Was he a hottie? So was Ted Bundy. JK. Glad you’re ok. I hope he makes it too. I wouldn’t chance it again if I was you, though!
I’m sure he was a nice person, but you NEVER KNOW. I wouldn’t take the chance.
sounds like our Travis…. are you sure it wasn’t him?…..maybe he has a secret crush in Vegas… ooh…he would be in soooo much trouble……. but it sounds like something our Travis would do….
Anna, don’t ever do that again. You were lucky this time. It’s not worth risking your life.

You are crazy girl!
Hmmm. I’ve always been tempted, just to be nice. You were lucky, and so was he.
Ditto on the Ted Bundy post. Glad it turned out for the best!
Nice, Lily…I couldn’t have said it better!
oh wow you are crazy! So glad you have a fun experience that you lived to tell about and that you are all in one piece (and not hacked into many!!!) EWWW yuck the very thought of that is just creepy!
