Eight degrees Celsius in February. Not a bad day for a walk. But it’s cold. I wish I’d worn a warmer coat. Is that . . .? Yes, that man is driving his convertible with the top down. At the mailbox, he crawls out of his low-slung conveyance. Sways on legs birthed in the horse- and-buggy days. Back in the car, he throws me a jaunty arm, tweed cap in hand, white wisps blowing in the spry breeze. I raise my hand in silent salute: Sir, give me a lift. Take me on your joy ride.
