Disney World, Orlando, FL; March, 2008
Grandma Marie, Andrew's grandmother, treated several children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren to an amazing week vacation at Disney World for spring break. It was a family affair to remember. Since it was March, in the evening, many of the resort’s TVs were tuned to the NCAA March Madness games. Little ol’ Western Kentucky University, where I attended a 6-week summer camp when I was 12, made it to the Elite Eight that season, quite an achievement for the Hilltoppers.
On our last day, we ate lunch in the resort cafeteria like we had several times. Our cashier’s nametag said that he was from Bowling Green, Kentucky, so I had to chat with him for a moment about the good showing by WKU. It turned out that before he went to college there, he was from Hodgenville. I couldn’t believe it and had to call Mom to see if we were related. We weren’t, but she knew his grandfather really well. Two kids from Hodgenville running into each other at Disney World – it’s a small world after all.
