It was a red pickup truck–a guy and a girl in the cab and another guy sitting in the bed. Not an unusual sight around here—especially out in the county where I was driving–but the guy in the back was looking down and concentrating on something. My inner librarian looked over hopefully, “Could he be reading?” Not exactly. Turns out he was working on his laptop.
He could still have been reading, even a classic book, since increasingly they are available on line.
Hope springs eternal!
