On Friday evenings during that long-ago summer, I drove home from work on the construction job, showered, changed and downed a snack. A little before 7 in the evening I was parked outside the telephone company building, waiting for the end of her shift. She said years later how exciting it was to look out the seventh-floor window in the dusk and see the roadster way down below. We put her overnight bag into the boot (Jaguars don’t have trunks), and off we went into the gathering darkness to I-90 East.
