A helpful stranger

Taking the bus to Seattle for the day and walking around in the rain...it was a great day, but it got late, and we almost missed the bus. I was standing next to my friend, looking at the schedules trying to figure out which bus we were supposed to take. A random guy asked, "Are you going to Tacoma? The bus is one block over." We walked around the block to see the bus pulling up, and it happened to be the last bus out of town. Without his help, we probably would have been stranded in Seattle. My friend and I still joke about it from time to time.
