Richmond, IN. Act I: After crossing the state border into Indiana, I finally reached my destination city of Richmond. My first order of business was to eat, drink, and then eat some more so I found a local place to eat that was by the motel I were to be staying at. After ordering about enough food to feed four people I reached for my card to pay and that's when Debbie & Ron stepped in to pay for my meal. After explaining that she didn't have to she insisted and all I could say was, "thank you" and later ask for a picture! Thanks again Debbie & Ron for the warm welcome -- you certainly made my evening and probably my week!
Act II: The amazing thing is the next morning I woke up, got ready and headed to the same establishment to eat breakfast. Place my order with Curt (the same gentleman that took my order yesterday) and another person stepped in to cover my meal. I looked at Curt as he replied "I can't believe it". I thanked the person while thinking, "I like this is reverse conspiracy".
Act III: The next day, now on the West side of Richmond I stopped a different restaurant, but same chain to order breakfast, before starting The Cardinal Greenway path. I kid you not... An older gentleman, who was once a hiker and saw my "NY to LA" sign down the road, covered my meal again! I officially love Richmond, Indiana!!! Three times in a row having my meals paid for, that goes to show you there is a lot of love in that town.
