Talk about working together!

K....so not really about fitness....but I just had to share this:

What a lovely sight to see today.  Sunshine really does bring out the best in people!

My Hubby and I were driving along a busy Street in our City heading toward downtown today and it has a River on one side and a park on the other.  As we got closer.....I noticed all the cars had come to a stand-still.  There were no police/ambulance lights and no by-standers which made us all the more curious.  Then I saw the most lovely sight.

It was a Family of Geese crossing the street.  Yes.  A family.  Mom and Dad - with what looked like 5 babes (or Goslings if I'm to be grammatically correct!).  Everyone was watching this parade in awe....Mom at the Front and Dad at the back.  Both sides of the street at a standstill (ie, 4 lanes!).

Next thing we notice is a woman on the other side of the street to us has got out of her vehicle....one of the Babes was being a bit slow - so at the risk of a telling-off from Mom or Dad (which she got!)...she walked behind them all to make sure they got to the median and further.  With her job done, she was back in her car.  Still no cars moved.

The Family made it to the other side and seemed quite happy - and yet a man in front of us was now out of his truck. With the majority of the Family on the safely on the sidewalk heading to the River, I noticed this man back in the middle of the street.  Wasn't he helping yet another, 6th Gosling cross...who'd become split up from the pack!  As soon as he went to help and walk behind the fluff-ball....one of the Parents came out and at first.....was going to tell the Man off....but I truly believe this Adult then realised the man was helping.  It went back to the side of the road and awaited Baby # 6.

Man got back in truck....Flock got on their way to their day in the River and everyone else left with a smile on their face having seen this all occur.

I'm sure I'm not the only one who got a tickle out of this......and made me realise how fabulous it is when people work together. NO one was honking to rush on....everyone sat back and watched the show unfold.

Sigh...

If only people worked together like that more often.  It certainly makes you feel great to see such sights. Also knowing a family of Geese were able to get safely across and that people weren't too busy to stop....money couldn't buy a cuter show today!

Stop. Smile at someone...and enjoy your Day!!!

Quack,

CM :)
