Quite the ride

[Vader]

Met up with my Brother-in-Law this morning for a ride.
8:40 am meet up in Harriman State Park, in NY, at Tiorati Circle. Rode up to Hawks Nest. Nice ride, but to avoid a parade in Port Jervis on the ride back, we took route 42 to route 17. We wanted to stick to back roads, but had to make time up. He needed to be home by 2pm.
Entering Tuxedo, NY we had decided to stop for coffee, it was 12:30pm. As we were riding I see a wallet..I flip a u turn..stop, dismount and grab the wallet. While having coffee, I try locating the owner, who lived locally, via 411.
Unfortunately, his address on his license was an old one (note: when u move, update ur info). Thankfully, his old neighbor knew where he works, and wallet was reunited with its owner.
Arrived home @2:30pm. All in all, a real nice day.

Thanks! And we didn't even use his cash for the coffee,lol!
Coincidentally, a long time friend knows the college age owner! They are neighbors now! Very weird and awesome!

Great gesture. A lot of people would have stopped at the bad address point. :yes:

Honest man Andy. One day someone will pay it back to you.

Thanks alot..I explained to the young man that there was a reason I found it. I mean, my brother-in-law past it, and at least 5-6 cars by time I was able to turn around and park, plus it was in front of a gas station (he left it on top of his car). I told him he must be a good person because somehow I was the one who found it, and one day I hoped he could "pay it forward ".
