Reading the replies, I realized I didn't put my bump ins down.
I was walking out of a store in the Mall of America, & a guy walking past looks back at me, & says I know you. I hadn't a clue who he was, so I said Really? from where? he says you were in the Corps on Pendelton right? I said Yes. He was from a different co than myself, but after talking a few minutes I began to recognize him, & remember him from 6 years previous. He impressed me whit his memory, I ran into this same guy 5 years later in a Dairy Queen in Amery Wisconsin, & I recognized him, but he didn't recognize me till I said hi, & who I was. That was freaking bazaar.
I was in the south west corner of N.D. out in the middle of no where looking for rattle snakes. & stopped & asked a rancher if he knew of any dens in the area. He was showing me a den & we got to talking, found out I was from Saint Croix Falls, Wi. Asked me if I knew so, & so. I said no, but I know a similar name. He says that's his daughter. She was in my graduating class, & she was from right there. in the middle of no where. Amadon was the nearest town.
I was working in Rapid City S.D. & I met a older couple that had moved from Belfouch to Wi & were heading back that day. It was 5 minutes before I was off the clock to go home but we started talking. Turns out they go to church, & are giving counsel to my brother, & sister inlaw, who haven't spoken to us in 2 1/2 years because they are angry at us for some unknown reason. They took my card, & gave it to my inlaws. We still haven't talked to them, & that was over a year ago now, & were in Texas.
I have more but this is getting to long, & maybe after a while I'll put the others down.
