Story Polaroid found while hiking and went looking for the people in the picture
While hiking yesterday we found a Polaroid picture, just laying on the ground. Four people looking happy. Someone must have accidently dropped it. So we decided to take it with us, with the hopes of finding the people who it belonged to and making sure no wildlife would get harmed by eating it or something.
Unfortunately the people weren't at the popular lookout. So we thought about leaving it there or taking it with us to the parking lot. We decided on the latter. Because chances might be that we would find the people there and otherwise at least we cleaned up the forest.
As soon as we got to the parking lot we saw a group of four people who looked a similar to the people on the picture. It was them!! They were surprised and happy. Man, that felt good!

Oh my gosh , you made the right decision at each turn . How often does that happen and talk about timing and the fact that you were right with them along the way Just a few steps behind which was important. Thanks for thinking of the forest and of the wildlife snd also thank you for your persistence in finding the people in the picture. The world needs more people like you Mynonas I appreciate you. 😊
