Took the Cobra to a local "Bob's Big Boy" Friday nite cruise/park. Was looking at the 50 or 60 cars that were in the parking lot. A young woman cruised up in her Ford Escort rent-a-car, looking to park so she could go to the Starbucks for a iced coffee/latte/frothy/something or another.
The lot was full, and she had some problems navigating thru the lot. I saw there was room for her to pass safely, and waved her forward. She told me about her predicament, and about the bad day she was having, and asked me to sit in her car while she went in for her iced whatever. I said "Sure."
A parking spot opened up, right next to my Cobra, so I pulled the Escort into the spot. She came out a few minutes later with her coffee drink, and she noticed me leaning on my Cobra. She complimented me on "Such a nice car", and I told her I would give her a ride, just to take her mind off her terrible day.
She declined for the moment, but she told me her name, and we had a nice little conversation. Cobras. Nice icebreakers.
