# Chapter 319

What an amazing infrastructure we have here in the USA. We have our garbage and our recycling picked up at our house. There are fire trucks and ambulances and police and these folks actually know what they are doing, not just in these positions because they have some connection with someone who does the hiring. Roads so smooth down South as to be made out of glass. Crops growing for mile after mile after mile in the Midwest. A technology corridor out West that is second to none. Groceries deliver to our nearby stores, supplies for our homes, and all the things we could want or need, delivered to our homes or nearby. But this is not all that important, other countries have also done this as well or better than we do.

But then there are the Pancho’s in the world of the USA. A Good Samaritan who turned around and came back to help us this week when we blew out a tire on the trailer and had no tools to get it off or change it. Brad who helped change a difficult part on the motorcycle. Kerry who is willing to help out in any way and regularly brings groceries to feed all our grandkids. Kimmy who made sure the plumbing was repaired yesterday. Steven who made certain that we got the tires we needed, and then proceeded to help change them. Jake who makes a late night airport run because he doesn’t want me to drive at night. These people, the us, are who really make America great. The infrastructure is nice, but the people are amazing.
