Sweet ride

After last week's brush with death, I was encouraged by the past few weeks. Here's the scoop:

• There has been a significant increase in interest from volunteers
• Web traffic has increased
• Last weekend two brand new volunteers joined me
• There has been an increase in donations
• A friend of mine took his family and handed out lunches downtown

It is nice to have a positive wave of stuff happening. Starting Free Lunch has had its ups and downs, but one thing is for sure, it has always been a sweet ride. Its kind of like driving too fast through the mountains. The danger is real, the likely consequences of skidding off the mountain is death, going around a corner too fast and starting to feel the tires slip is exhilerating, eyes glued to the road, calculating every turn, planning each pass, then hitting the straightaway and just flying.

I love this life.
