Want to Live in A Car?

This girl did, for months...but her decision to do so seems to be more self-motivated than actual need. (Crass...I know. I'm not showing much sympathy.) Nonetheless, it makes for interesting reading. Go to the first three months of 2006 -- by the fifth month or so, she's got a room.

I was rethinking the "living-in-a-car" syndrome while driving by Wal-Mart this afternoon. It's been steaming around here -- in the 90s day after day. Fall colors are starting to form, but they're pale; we need cold temps to produce those crisp golds and oranges for autumn. (Reds, except for sumac and imported weeds, are sadly nonexistent out here in Colorado.)

Anyways, the local Wally stands on a high platform above the road, surrounded by wood logs and a fringe of trees. A whole row of RVs and trailers rings the parking lot. Couldn't we live up there, if we had to?


I know...this whole line of thought is silly. But strangely comforting, somehow.
