Check Out His Ride

Since I had so much fun on my last trip to Florida, I decided I would go back and hang out at the house. I went to my friend's house [somewhere in a place called Highlands County], and we decided to go to one of the little shopping malls they have there. Now I parked and as we were walking towards the mall, I got a glimpse of this car and had to stop and look it over.

My friend was all embarrassed and started with the "hear we go again" sigh as she slowly made her way to the benches to have a seat... So I walked all around the car. I read all the quotes and such, looked at all of the little figurines and toys- I even touched a few of them O_o

Just as I turned on my camera, I saw this tall man [around fifty years old?], wearing a cowboy hat with "Jesus" written on the front, walking towards me. He gave me a little nod and a quick half smile which is when I put two and two together and realized it was his car [duh!]... I wanted to ask him all about the car- why did you do this to your car? How many things have you glued to the car? How long have you been doing this? Etc...-but after fitting yet another sticker on the side of his car, he seemed to be in a bit of a rush. He wasn't mean or pushy about it, but he was defiantly trying to ignore me while I stood there [probably looking silly] trying to get the words out of my mouth. So finally, while he was opening his door to get in, I asked if I could take a few pictures of his car- I was going to get my pictures whether he wanted me to or not- and he said "sure" while getting ready to sit down in his car.

Before he sat down, I had already snapped about three pictures. I found it kinda funny, for someone who is doing something so attention grabbing, that he wasn't very welcoming... Maybe it was just a bad time/day? Oh well, I got my pictures and a few other items from the mall- so my day turned out to be just fine :) I don't know, I thought the car was kinda interesting... Just though I would share ^_^
