We Love Happy Endings!

On the afternoon of the Junk Fest!, a customer came to the Welcome Table, carrying a white shelf.  She told us that she found it in the parking lot and figured someone accidentally left it behind.  I think her exact words were, "She must have been so excited about her treasures that she forgot it!".  I tucked the shelf away in my car.  The next day, I received an email from the owner of the shelf asking if, by some Plucky miracle, it had been turned in by a good Samaritan.  Her exact words were, "I was so excited about my treasures that I forgot it!".  The following morning, I met her at a coffee shop downtown to deliver her shelf.  She was so happy.  She said she couldn't imagine the experience happening anywhere other than in Portland, and that the customers and vendors at the Fest! were absolutely delightful.  I was so happy.  I think the shelf was happy, too.
