The town was an okay town; I mean there wasn’t really anything unusual about it. There were restaurants, stores, gas stations, and the like. There wasn’t really anything to do in the town, but walk up and down the streets. Mom wouldn’t let me out of her sight the whole time we were there, which wasn’t such a big deal until she drug me into a ladies clothing store.
I had to suffer for nearly an hour of mind numbing boredom as Mom looked at clothes and tried on outfits. She ended up not buying anything which seemed to upset the sales lady, though nothing was actually said about that to us.
Before Lunch Mom left me sitting on a metal folding chair inside the service station with orders to not move or go anywhere while she went outside to talk with John.
