So I am working along the road of my farm earlier today with my new
excavator that was just delivered to me today. Keep in mind that this is
a private road out in the middle of nowhere.
A couple of older ladies (one of them was 91) pass by & we all wave at
each other. A little later on as they come back to leave, they stop to
ask about some of my neighbors. We end up talking about my farm, my
family and to drop by to visit when our house is finished being built.
It ends up that she used to live at the end of the road and that her son
is a famous rally car driver. She asks me if I have ever heard of Ken
Block, her son! Have I? Subaru in the snow, Ford at an airport, Ford in
LA, Ford in Egypt (she corrects me ... Dubai)
She enjoyed talking to me so much that she gets out of her car & says
she has a little present for me. From the back seat she pulls out a
hardcover book called "Blast" that is autographed by Ken Block & hands
that to me.
I am in awe, meeting interesting people out in the middle of nowhere...
& now I really hope that she comes back sometime with her son in tow,
maybe I'll even get the drifting ride of my life!
