Fun with Hitchhikers

I picked up a hitchhiker for the first time in my life last night. Mostly because Jenee’ said that he comes into the store where she works all the time, so we felt ok about picking him up. Plus he just needed to go like 3 miles. But still, it was quite an event for me, living on the edge like that. He had a bag, and for all I know he could have had something other than bible pamphlets in there. But no, he really just had a bunch of bible pamphlets in there, and made sure to give us a couple before he got out of the car. You gotta love small religious towns…

Just out of curiosity, was your religious hitchhiker an older guy with a white beard and no mustache?

Yes he was.

Heh, yeah, my girlfriend and I have picked him up, too. He only had to go about a half a mile. I think he uses hitchhiking more as a means to share his faith than as a form of transportation. Seemed like a pretty nice old dude, at any rate.

Oh he was definitely nice, I’d just never picked up a hitchhiker before so you never know! :)
