The Kindness of the Best House Guests... Ever

"A tree is known by its fruits; a man by his deeds.  A good deed is never lost; he who sows courtesy reaps friendship, and he who plants kindness gathers love."
- Saint Basil

Staying with friends on a recent trip, we tried to be good house guests.  There is no doubt in my mind that we fell short.  But it reminded me of a family that stayed at our house more than 10 years ago.  They were incredibly considerate and easy going during their visit, but one of the things that I remember the most is that they insisted on washing their towels and sheets before they left.  It amazes me to this day.
