The Good Samaritans

I guess it must be true; no good turn should go unpunished.  How is it possible, that a short week's vacation in the Sierras, just to view the fall colors and try a little trout fishing, could lead to so many strange happenings, with so many strange people, some in far-off places?
   Would you believe the Russian Mafia and KGB agents here in the US of A? Come on now, be serious, that is just impossible----isn't it?  And----how about mysterious money, in the thousands, appearing unexpectedly from strange places?  I guess it is not surprising, considering all this, to also find the CIA and assorted policemen also involved, is it?
 It does seem now in retrospect, one must accept the only conclusion possible, i.e., being A Good Samaritan can sometimes be dangerous to one's health!  Who would ever expect that? !
