Local girl makes good

I’m not a big fan of reality shows unless they are real estate or cooking/restaurant related. Tonight I am making an exception. I’m watching Secret Millionaire.
I grew up with a bright and bubbly young girl who grew up to be an amazing woman. A few years back Lisa, like so many others from my hometown, moved away to accept a job. She’s now working in a teen homeless drop-in care centre in sunny Las Vegas. Tonight her centre is featured on Secret Millionaire and I’m eshewing my self-imposed moratorium on reality TV to watch the episode she’s appearing in.
Nothing humbles you quicker than seeing childhood friends doing good. I’m looking forward to it.
Tour Update: Got a very quick message from Drew this afternoon. They’re half way to their destination.

While I’m sure the blond cheerleader milionnaire does some good works from time to time, I’m far prouder to know people who do good work for others on a daily basis.
I get all my coolness from my association with Mr Orange Toque 🙂
