“Its Frank !” and so I dumped the Foam Brush wand into the back of the pick up and dashed out into the open air where I might hear Frank better. The worthwhile phone call turned out a little long and so its end coincided with the life expectancy of the six bucks worth of quarters. Have you ever seen six dollars worth of soap suds in the back of a pickup?…..they droop well over the sides and stand a full three feet over the roof of the cab. And if you are at all like me, its at this time you will make the discovery you just simply don’t have enough cash on hand to perform the necessary rinse.
So there I was….heading down the main road with large billowing gobs of foamy cleanliness wreaking havoc with the traffic behind until I desperately sought a quieter route home. Said chosen route, however, turned out to be inhabited by a large group of kids who all took great pleasure in chasing after the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade float that stumbled into their domain, all of them calling out and laughing…….
I think those six dollars were well spent …..not just for the kids pleasure….but who the hell would ever remember a decent car wash a year later ?
