Safe and Secure (or not)

Spent an evening out last night taking some pictures

with Sharon, in the fog. I parked on a street near a

park and athletic field... We got our stuff out of my car,

I locked the door and off we went. Took a walk, took some

pictures, ran into a woman who started talking to us and telling

us strange stories.... yeah, odd stories (very odd), but I’m polite... I listened and

asked her questions. All the while, Sharon is shooting me these looks, and finally

says... I think we need to leave, there’s a storm coming. We start walking back to the

car, and she is asking me... Didn’t you see the looks I was giving you?!! I told her, I did... but I

had no clue why (the most perceptive person in the world, I am not) and she proceeded to tell me

that that woman was “not right” and during the walk back to the car, that woman went from

mental patient to Satan “herself” ... and then Sharon was convinced that she had disappeared into

thin air. So, we are discussing where to go get something to eat, because we are both

starving, decided on french fries and pizza....get back to my locked car, sitting along a street, near

athletic fields in a park, with soccer and lacrosse going on, and people walking dogs.... and there is my car...

with the passenger side door... wide open.... as it has been for over an hour.... with all of my camera

equipment sitting on the back seat, Sharon’s pocketbook, some cash.... access to everything in the

trunk.... I’m so glad that I hit the door lock when we walked away, so everything would be... safe and secure. LOL!

 

Seriously, do these things only happen to me? Nothing was missing... as far as I can tell. So of course we laughed ourselves silly. What else could you do? Guess there

are still honest people in the world. Although it would have been nice if someone had closed the door for us.

(It would have been even better if WE had closed the door...)

 

And as we drove away.... I pointed the strange woman out to Sharon. She had not disappeared into thin air.

She was still there... standing in the dark... and the fog... and the rain... taking pictures.... of... ???? lol.
