Lost and Found

While having breakfast on the patio of the Chile Pepper Cafe in Terlingua I found an 11-year-old Amtrak ticket stub on the ground under my table. Cari Cain was going from Philly to NYC, apparently, in the fall of 1999. Was this trip a turning point in her life? Had she saved this ticket stub all these years and used it as a bookmark to remind her of that day?

I'd like to think that Cari took a chance in November 1999 - a chance that changed her life forever in ways I'll never know.

    I like that the ticket says UNRESERVED like she was so determined that they wanted to make a note of it. Want to play detective? Look her up on Facebook.
