Gertrude [not her real name] has been a regular for a long time, I don't know how many years. An older lady but she works almost every day. And once a week or so she works for a local lodge and sets up a huge dinner [usually we cabbies lug the groceries]
Many times we get the leftovers in our office :)
About a year ago there was a fire at her house and there was massive water damage. The house is still there but uninhabitable and the whole issue remains unresolved. A fine lady and a nicer Yankee fan you'll never meet. I'm grateful for all our conversations past and future. I nominate Gertrude as passenger of the month.
Four girls to the city.
Three Middle Eastern businessmen.
Two Turtle doves from the airport back to town. I'd driven them before, at least twice but they didn't remember me. They did all the talking. All I said was thanks and bye.
Immediately after those two yakety-yackers I drove a mysteriously silent couple who seemed new to the area and just a little 'off' creating an interesting study in contrasts.
Then there were two girls probably not even 20. One was drunk out of her mind and the other one was more or less babysitting her friend.
I was very glad there was no throw up involved.
