Fate?

I'm not a big believer in it, but there are times when you have to sit and wonder.

Did my normal walk at lunchtime, when my brother and I were making the turn when someone hollered my last name. Turned and it was an old high school buddy names Wes. his family was up here from texas visiting his relatives.

What are the odds of that scenario actually coming to fruition? Anyone? like 1:anything? He has a boy roughly the same age as Nora, and his older daughter was more than happy to show us the incoming teeth, to with the boy allowed much more readily than Nora does.
