watching Penn State set another team scoring record at the NCAA wrestling championships.

At the hotel this morning we stopped for some tea and coffee and bagels before the ride home.

When we're getting up ready to leave a homeless man sat down at a table across from us. I told my grandson, wait a minute, I walked over to the homeless man and said hello, I gave him 10 dollars and said, someone told me it's your birthday, he laughed and thanked me.

We were just outside the lobby door waiting for our car when I asked my grandson if he knew why I did that? He asked why. I told him because that man may be Jesus. He laughed but I stopped him and said, I am serious. I didn't pay attention, but my grandson said, that man went into the shop to buy food. I say, yup, Jesus has to eat too.

Just how it happened this morning.
