Falstaff

This particuler car I was told remained the sole possesion of a country doctor who drove it from day one till the odometer quite working and it still runs, but the doctor long since retired let her rest in a meadow covered with a flimsy barn for shade. Recently she emerged and with a set of four good tires she rolled into her own place among the those that wait for attention in a sleepy Oklahoma town. She got forty years of attention and nearly abandoned she will roll proudly again in a new livery, worthy of an old Prairie Queen. We dont know her name, but she meant something to an old man that coaxed her down rutted snowy roads and spans of asphalt and concrete as the world changed around it. It is wonderful to see that people still find room for the old girl, may she proudly burn her indelible image into the hearts of a new generation young minds and may she warm the hearts of old ones.
