I know for sure that this was the longest car on the whole block and feel confident that it was also the longest car in the entire town.

I tried to imagine parking a car this long…do you think there were smaller cars that operated like tugboats to nudge it into place?

Also, my shooting partner and I were surveilled while we were there – the business owner and his wife drove over* to see what we were up to after his camera alerted him that there was someone walking around. He was sort of belligerent at first but we were charming. According to us. Also we were on the public right of way so we sort of had that on our side and they decided to let us stay.
