Forever LINKED in my mind... KFC, Sand and Sickness
Long rides to the shore, after sitting in a church pew in northern New Jersey.
Title: Some Sundays Down-the-Shore : Corporal Punishment Series
We boiled in our sweat
since Dad didn't want exhaust fumes
coming in from the back window...
The Dodge wagon was a KILLER
on long rides.
[Dirty Hippy Hitch-hiker ]
Dad hated the beach.
He would wear his church clothes
while sitting up near the dune grass
and parking lot.
[Sunburn and Sandy KFC ]
[Cut-off Blue Jeans ]
Gino's Restaurant was the only place
to buy Kentucky Fried Chicken.
It had sand in it.
I got sick on the ride home from
Food Poisoning...
or Sun Poisoning...
or Carbon Monoxide Poisoning.

Comments
- Katherine - I remember standing on the hump and hanging my arms over the front between the adults in the front seat - No belts, no helmets, lots of steel and huge amounts of horsepower.
-Michele - the rumor was that Dad used to have a Gold Lamay bathing suit, but I never saw him in it. He lived like a Tabby cat.
I can actually feel the sand in my teeth.
(blech!)
Getting shuddering chills remembering it!
