Bad karma to those of you who said they would come out and didn't and buckets of good stuff to those and the unexpected people that did.
Veni, Lawrence, Connie, Ryan, Carrie and their friends.. Hell... even Nabs made a cameo appearance to grace us with his sandwich labeling skillz!
The crew made 300 sandwiches in record time and we headed out to hand them out before the forecast snow came.
I am guilty of thinking they are all junkies with no hope for a better future but no one needs to fight the sting of Old Man Winters touch.
It was really cold out there and I felt the chill even though I had layers of technical outerwear on. I do not envy those who have to try and make it through tonight, or any other winter night, without warm shelter.
To be acknowledged by those who appreciated the handout brought a smile to my face and I hoped that we gave them a bit more strength to make it through the night.
Thanks again to everyone that helped with the event this year and I hope to see you all again at the next one.
- Winston
