Unexpectedly Nice

Every 500 feet on its portion of the Bay Trail the City of Foster City has placed benches for people to take in a view of the lagoon.

Some kind soul placed a bottle of flowers at one bench to brighten everyone who chanced to rest there.

I don't wish to over-praise the effort or its importance, but it was an unexpectedly nice public-spirited gesture in a world that could use more of them.
