PATCH
IT’S SATURDAY AFTERNOON, AND THAT MEANS I’LL BE GOING ALL THE WAY TO
Whitesburg to get groceries and supplies. I look the list over and ask,
“Anything else you can think of?” Everybody shakes their head. “Okay. With
any luck I’ll be back in a couple of hours.”
“Sounds good. We’ll be cooking by the time you get back,” Hollywood
assures me. I swear, the guy is the best wife I ever had. Cleans like a maniac,
cooks like a five-star chef, pays all the bills, and doesn’t ask for much. As
wives go, he would be a dream come true, but I’m not turned that way.
It’s gorgeous out. There was light frost last night, but this morning the
sun came up, warm and bright, and the crystalline powder was gone in an
hour, except for in the shadows. And there are a lot of those in the holler.
I’ve grown accustomed to crazy shit going on around here. One day when
I was driving in, I had to stop for two women carrying a clothesline with the
clothes still on it, so I stuck my head out the truck window and yelled, “Need
some help?”
“Nah, ain’t nuthin’ you can do. Her tree done fell down and now she ain’t
got two trees to stretch the line a-tween, so we’re just carryin’ it acrosst the
highway to my house,” Lindy Parker called back.
“Hey, Patch!” the other woman yelled, and I could see it was
Becky Nelson.
“Hey, Becky. Sure you don’t need help?”
“Nah. We got it, but thanks,” Lindy answered. I just sat there and waited.
It only took them a couple of minutes and I was on my way.
But this time, it’s a snarl of traffic. Of course, here, a snarl of traffic is
three vehicles, but it’s still unusual. In front of them is a small moving truck,
one of the typical orange and white varieties. From the looks of things, I’d
say it’s stuck. I put down my window and yell, “What’s up?”
