It was a hot day in the desert and we were returning from taking a youth group to the Navajo Reservation near Winslow. We got to Kingman and the sky was full of aircraft and the streets full of speeding emergency equipment. The trains had exploded in the rail yard. One of the major disasters of the 20th Century.
The only inconvenience for us was that our Cokes were warm at the cafe -- all of the ice in the city was going to the burn unit at the hospital.
For us, looking back, we are reminded that little inconveniences for a few can mean life for others. It is at the heart of our charity work/giving.
