Well, my DIL has a doctor's appt today and needed to get back home. The sheriff said he had an extra car at home that he doesn't need so he let them use it and drive on home last night.

Things like this would only happen in the south!

Great story.
When I was driving back to CLC through Texas, I got a free tow from a tow truck driver when I was stranded outside of Houston. He towed me quite a ways to a service station for free.

All of this reminds me of home in the highlands of the Rockies (above 7000 feet). We all learned to look after one another in the time of 'any need' (mountain to mountain and valley to valley), or we could very well die up there in either summer or winter.

Of course, being in the swamps (er, bayous) of Louisiana is not quite the same thing as living in clear mountain air, but the people are the same.
