1000 miles and strange encounter
Deja-vu all OVER again for this guy George, seems wifey poo and I decided to go out for a drive late this evening just after dinner....so we head out, top down of course, and about a mile from the house, it's raining...so we drive along though some sunlight and rain, and are guessing/griinning about it...then ahead it's looking really really nasty, so we do a U turn and head back north again...and then it's really looking nasty there too....so in the middle of a slowdown and it's getting pretty heavy, I flip a right into a bank overhead teller window line place.....
got out to put the top up, there is this guy in a large black pickup type thing, with a huge hitch on back, and Maryland tags.....I comment to Linda there is a guy from Md. there....and go about my business....he glances ONCE at the car, sees the custom tail lights, and starts talking...seems he dated the room mate of the gal that owned it way back when about near 30 years ago...he asked if it was ever a basic white...I said it was with greenish and silver metallic in it....he allowed it's the SAME FREAKING CAR.....and the gal that owned it was named Kay......I forget who I bought the car from....
at any rate, so this guy recognized the car immediately inspite of the color change...
he was all upset and whimsical about it.....he knew enough of the car's early show car status to ensure in my mind he really did know the car way back when.....funny.....he drove to somewhere to a Super Chevy show, and then down to Gainsville Fl. here, and was heading back to Wash d.c. area...southerm Maryland when we happened to be under the same bank roof seeking rain shelter....go figger....

That's beyond coincidental, bordering on scary. There's got to be a reason for stuff like that happening...but what that reason would be, I don't know...
