It’s been an interesting day, kids.
One of the things I do from time to time is drive people from Point A to Point B. It gets me out of the house, and I make a little pocket change to buy the occasional doodad.
So, earlier tonight, I picked up a bunch of young ladies, college freshmen, at a popular local intersection, 14th and Ohio in Lawrence. More than the recommended jumped in, to my dismay, and I gave them a lift over to McDonald’s for a festive Friday night dinner. These girls were all under 21, and had been drinking. Some more than others.
After that ride, I had one of my regular passengers ping me to give him a ride to work, and I was grateful to see him after the experience I had just had with those young ladies.
I went offline after that, went home and woke up gramma from a nap and took her out for dinner (a good one, too, by the way. Good food matters. )
I dropped her off at home after we had out dinner, and my intent was to go watch Dane play with the Lawrence High Marching Band. Lawrence High was playing host to Lee Summit West, and folks, that parking lot was wall-to-wall automobiles. It was like watching a psychic attack on people’s desire to car pool.
So I drove around some more.
And then I got a ping.
Emergency Room at Lawrence Memorial Hospital.
When I arrived there I recognized the four young ladies as being part of the posse that I had picked up over at 14th and Ohio earlier that evening.
One of their friends had consumed alcohol well beyond the point of moderation.

Her friends had to take her to the emergency room.
Keep in mind that this is occurring while my daughters Bonnie and Gracie are both at the University, just like these other girls.
I hope that young lady is ok. I also hope her friends learned something from this experience.
Funny thing is…
Someday these young ladies might be parents with children of their own .
I wonder if they’ll have talks with their kids about this experience. I wonder if they’ll even remember it.
I’ll remember it.
And I’ll ask you guys to read this and pass it on down the line.
Hope it helps somebody before another kid has to go to the emergency room.
