C.E. Murphy Quote

Except my eyes had fallen right off the vista and landed on a black 1967 Chevy Impala. It didn’t belong up here in the woods any more than Petite might’ve, but it was a beautiful car. Gary parked a few spaces down from it and I got out to walk circles around it. Kansas license plates. I patted the Impala’s hood and mumbled, Long way from home, aren’t you, baby? before reluctantly turning away.
