It was getting near lunchtime and I needed some gas, so I left
the interstate and drove towards the nearest town. There was
a gas station just outside the town and I decided to stop and
have a look round. I put the car in a parking lot and took a
cab to the centre. It was midday and very hot, so I stopped at
a little café with tables on the sidewalk. I started talking to a
truck driver, who gave me a history of the town, and afterwards
he took me on a guided tour. It made a very nice break.
