Road Trip
While attending the University of Connecticut I decided to hitchhike to Florida for Spring break. Late at night near New Bohemia, Virginia I get picked up by a man driving a station wagon. We chatted up a little. I told him where I was coming from and where I was heading. Eventually he had to stop for fuel. When he got out of the vehicle I turned and looked in the back. There was a gurney with what appeared to be a body covered by a sheet. After he got back in I asked "Is that what I think it is back there?" "What?" he says. "Is that a body?" "Yes." He proceeds to tell me that he is a deliveryman for the local funeral home directors' association. It's a boring job so he likes to pick up hitchhikers to keep him company. YIKES! I couldn't fall asleep until two nights later when I was finally in Florida.
