The very first post I read on this list was from Felix about trail magic.  He told about being picked up by a van full of swedish vollyball players.  I was half way through it before I figured out there was something not quite right about the boy.

Magical:  Going into town after a 20+ mile 

day, planning on spending 2 nights in town, only to find the town's hotels are 

completely booked, but deciding to have dinner at Friendly's before finding 

a place to camp.  While at Friendly's, talking to a couple (there with 

their grandson) and them offering to drive us to a hotel outside of town, but 

then them deciding to just take us to their house instead!  Two nights in a 

bed.  Bathrobes while showering and laundering.  Rides to town for 

re-supply and shopping.  Steak dinner!  Breakfast.  Ride back to 

trail.  Complete strangers we were.  Trail Angels they 

became!
