Before we got back on the road, John walked me over to this old style water pump. I didn’t realize he had a bundle under one arm until he told me strip naked right there in front of everyone and made me wash the stale pee from my body while he worked the pump. I had a moment of hesitation at the idea of stripping naked at the Rest Stop but it was a very brief moment. Once he felt I was clean enough he gave me dry clothes to wear while he rinsed my others.
Back at the car he stuffed the tarp and my wet items in the back of the car while giving me a confusing gaze.
