I am a creature of habit and like to park in the same spot every day. As I was pulling into the parking lot I noticed that 
someone had taken my usual space. So I navigated my land yacht (also known as a Yukon XL) to the first spot that is flanked on one side by some overgrown bushes. The bushes can be annoying and I was debating on going farther down to park since my premium spot was taken! As I pulled in I noticed that there was a mountain bike thrown half way between the parking spot and the bushes. With my view being blocked by the bushes it was a miracle I didn't run over the bike before I saw it.
Since I had already decided that this wasn't a prime parking spot anyway, it would have been easier to just move down to the next available parking spot and leave the bike for its rightful owner. But I knew the chances of the next driver not seeing the bike before it was too late were high! So, I parked my car and drugged the bike to safety leaving it parked in the bushes.
I'm not sure where the bike came from or why it was left so carelessly. But I hope I saved someone from being really disappointed if they had returned and found their bike in pieces! And I'm trusting that my random act of kindness may be returned by me finding my usual parking spot open tomorrow!
