Adrienne about to negotiate her first left turn in Yellow Truck. This is Standard Shift Driving Lesson No. 1, in the sugar sand parking lot of the Stetson Baptist Church on W. Minnesota Ave. A super historic moment.

Here is your faithful bloggist, dreaming of the next steak fry while holding it. Note the way I am protecting my bacon burger no cheese all-the-way extra hot peppers sandwich. Delicious. Custom food by Belly Busters.

Adrienne's first (and last it would turn out) boiled peanuts. The Confederate flag is not shown, but is de rigeur in the boiled peanut trade.

Singer-songwriter Magda Hiller and her handsome husband, future-DeLand-Mayor Chip Wilson, shoot the breeze with Adrienne out front of the garage. The red bicycle is Dave Heeren's homemade six-speed. The one-eyed jumping dog is Tiger. Stairs built in 216 precision cuts by the unpictured bloggist.
