"Can I have quarter?" he said. "What?" "Can I another quarter?" "Why?" she said. "Uh, I it," he said. "Sure," she said, and she him another quarter. And he reached out of the window there, and dropped it in the basket. Up the gate, and out comes...
Johnny's Camaro, Camaro Johnny loved his Camaro, maybe than life itself.
Oh, it was no big deal, he was taking her to the airport. It was in New York City. It was springtime, however, in Africa. She'd saving up her money. She was going to go on one of outward bound trips, so he was just her a ride to the airport. And around and the airport they went, through parking garage, looking for a parking space. "There's one," she said. "No." "There's one," she said. "No." You see, it takes two parking spaces...

He's a little walking through the airport. always looking back over his shoulder. "You can go if you want," she said. "No, no man, stay." And he did. He stayed until the plane off. he ran back. But meanwhile, she was up over the city. She was down. She was looking at the lights of the buildings. She was looking down at the lights of the on the water. She was down at the lights. You see them crossing the bridges, and the little canyon streets. tiny, diamond toward you and ruby away. You know, those little tiny lights. And she knew that one of them was... you know.
Man, got to tell you about the adventures she had in Africa. I I should start with the silver bracelet, I think that's where it all around. She hadn't been on the trip long and one of the guides of took her his wing. 'Cause she was sort of easy, she was a little about being out there. The first time she got through her hat she she was a long way from home. She had left the group for a little while one day, she had went to take a pee, she said "I'll be right back," but she didn't come for a while. And this guide, African man went to look for her. "Laura! Laura?" He found her standing on the lowest branch of a fairly tree, way off the ground. "How you get up there?" Well, she had jumped. "Why?" Well, there was a hyena, and had told her about hyenas. They jaws that can crush bone. She wasn't in a real position anyway, and she ran, and there was the branch. She - one hand slipped, one hand held. She was not down. "He's gone." So now she trusted him, and she swings down and both straight, hanging from that branch, her are four feet off the ground. Man, she didn't she could jump that high. Ah, but she now.
It was changes like that that made him give her that bracelet. It was the one that always wear kind of between his elbow and his shoulder, of wrapped tight around his arm. It was a beautiful bracelet, and he bent it down a little bit to fit around her there and she smiled. So so that it startled him. So much so that on the last day of that trip, when they getting back on the bus to go to the small to go back to the big airport to go across the to go back to... you know, when they were getting back on the bus, she out the window for that last little snapshot and as he looked the camera, he had to slowly take the camera down, and his head to the side a little bit, look a little bit sad and say "How you get up there?"
She was dreaming over the of being home again Dreaming over the Of would never be the same.
Well, he wasn't at the when she got into the airport. He must have been looking for a space. So she just through the airport, you know, and it wasn't before. Now the seemed kind of small. The airport seemed of stuffy, the ceiling was a little bit low. And was getting out of her way. I don't - well, actually I do know. Maybe it was it had been winter, you see, and she had just back from summer. And she was just dressed normally. Everyone was bundled up, but she had on her hiking boots and her shorts and her top, her hair tied back, and a knife on her belt, and a big old bracelet, I think it was the bracelet, but everybody was out of her way. She didn't see him 'til the comes rolling down the old baggage claim, and suddenly there's arm and this saying, "I'll get that." And she says, "Hey, my backpack, gimme it. Where're you parked?" So he gave her the backpack, and she swung it over her and went out and carefully nestled it in the trunk.
And then, out of the parking garage and the city. And she had to out the window, she pushed the button and the window go down and she leaned out a bit to feel the wind in her hair. Man, is the wild place to be. I mean, is the place, she has to lean a further out of the car just to to see it all, just to look up at some of the buildings. As a matter of fact, she leaned a little farther so she look back behind and watch those big rolling on that pavement, and suddenly the window came up and she comes in, startled and sure enough Johnny's got his on the power window. And looking at her like, "Will you get feet off the upholstery!" The upholstery, the upholstery. She forgot. How she forget? Well, she'd been in Africa. on! She took her off the upholstery. As a matter of fact, she took her feet off the politely. As a matter of fact, she her hands in her lap and she settled in for ride. I saw just a glint of a as she turned her face to one side. Maybe to the plush upholstery brush against her cheek. Maybe to see the lights of the graphic equalizer on the reflected in the window. Maybe to watch that lone drop of make its weary way across that perfectly surface. But I think it was just to enjoy ride... ride... this ride...
