Buying a car has changed over the years. No longer do you have to go from car lot to car lot to find that perfect car. No more spending your week-ends car shopping. Years ago car shopping was a big thing. Having a car wasn't as casual or as necessary as it is today. People in town walked or took the bus. Again they slow down, then stop, look about, they hear the water slapping the bank from the Great Lake again, but can not see it.

She fumbled in her pocket for the key, her hands shaking, some part of her expecting to see the man in his big buy truck direct pull up at any minute. He doesn't even know you're gone, she thought, and finally found the key. Jumping off the back of the deuce-and-half truck, brushing through the crowd of peanut girls, I headed to the bar. It was a beautiful day with sunlight dappling the shaded roadway. A couple of guys that had graduated from high school with me picked me up at the end of my afternoon shift, and we went drinking in Lorain. We ended up in Hannah's Bar on North Broadway just a couple of blocks south of Lake Erie. In the weeks following, Charles started overhauling his truck. After tying the knot at the top of Squaw Valley, Tucker and his wife booked their awesome honeymoon. Bennett has started flight school and will soon be flying to Alaska for some mountain climbing there.
