I Love This Bar
“A couple of truckers stopped by for a quick beer. Merle didn't wander out that night and Joe Bob stayed home so the pool tables were quiet. Daisy fed the jukebox coins a few times but she and Cathy had no dancers or drinkers. Finally, at eleven thirty, she closed the beer joint.
Tinker picked up his black leather jacket and slipped his arms into it. "See you Monday night," he yelled across the floor.

"Sometimes I miss the mountains. Rain always reminds me of home and the smell of the rain as it came through the mountains," she said.MoreLess
