there are quite a few hitchhikers around the island.
sometimes they look like nice people who you could be friends with
others, well not so much..
as joey and i drive back and forth through some of the close towns to la'ie
we see these hitchhikers and joey is always trying to pick them up.
i on the other hand protest and make him keep driving.
is it the right thing to do?
i dont know..
but i do know i feel safer in my car when there are no strangers in it..
but today was the day
as joey and i were driving away from a shopping center in pupukea
we saw a young man on the side of the road,
and yes his thumb was sticking out.
joey said we should pick him up and didnt leave me room to protest.
granted he was a very nice looking young man,
dressed in slacks and a button up shirt.
he asked if we could take him to kahuku the next town over
and we obliged.
and so we met Kevin...
he and joey made small talk, i mostly sat quiet, thinking that we didnt have anything to give him, he was sitting behind me.. if he had a knife he could stick it right through my seat. would he want our car? my wedding rings? (thanks dad for making me so skeptical of everyone and everything) but nothing happend, we went a few miles and dropped our hitchhiker off on the side of the road.
we was a nice young man, im sure.. i didnt really listen
but joey seemed to like him.
and i am glad he didnt have to wait in the rain for someone else, or walk all the way.
im still uber sketchy about the whole thing
but im glad we could help.
ps- i secretly wanted to take pictures of him because i knew i would be blogging about this the minute he got in the car.. but no such luck :)
love, the williams
