Did I Really See What I Thought I Saw?

What was that in the parking lot anyway?  Two girls. very beehive do's, smoking.  Giggling sort of nervously.  Leaning against each other.

                                          (love me some Ronettes)
 A third much larger figure near another car.  Couldn't even tell gender of this one, but seemed more ominous.  Made me think of Hannibal knifing the thief.


Anyway.  Nothing happened.  At least nothing I could testify to.  I'd make a terrible witness.  I think the girls were wearing capri pants.  Is that what they are called now?  When I was a kid that style was a "pedal pusher"  Has that term lost its political correctness?


After about ten minutes Big Figure got into the lighter colored car with one of the Beehive Girls.  Girl Number Two drove away in the darker, lower to the ground car.  I turned my lamp off but I left the window open.

I'm savoring these last few crisp breezy nights no matter what goes on across the street.
