Description
A vintage white MG speeds down an empty highway. West, to California. West, into the sunset. West, into that bright and colorful land of dead dreams. The driver knows, but doesn’t care. The wind in his hair is enough for now. Once there, once he sees the Pacific, he’ll drive north up the coast into the land of rain. There’s a woman there, one he knew long ago. They’ll embrace, open a bottle of Riesling, read poetry to each other. Maybe. If she hasn’t moved on. He doesn’t think so, though; her temple is here, she wouldn’t leave it. He hopes.Related content

Missed opportunities... a fantasy about going back and correcting them.

Riesling is too dry and pale for me. I like a big bold red. My MG's, too, but bright. Green is also nice for MG's. They are temple enough.

I prefer red as well, but the lady gets what the lady wants. My friend had a white MG when I was in school... I was green with envy!

I had a different car, but you already know about that. I don't know if any envy was held by the other students. I could have bought a black MG-TD, but it wasn't a TC and I didn't like the black. I chose the other one.
