Looking for a Miracle

Mr. Montana

I saw a man today on the side of the road with a backpack and a sign saying "looking for a miracle". I drove past, made a bunch of excuses to myself about why I shouldn't pay attention to this man and then turned around. In the 5 minutes I had to spare before I would be late for work I learned that:

• The man was born and raised in Washington
• There is a Mount Vernon in Washington
• He was from Montana (I love Montana)
• He didn't know what kind of miracle he was looking for
• He spent the last couple of nights sleeping in culverts (did I mention it's December in Iowa?)
• But that's ok because he has a sleeping bag that zips up to his head
• He is headed north, the colder the better, but I don't know why
• He couldn't accept a place to stay for the night because the cops would probably chase him out of town before I got off work

Money will have to do. Good luck, Mr. Montana.
