Janet Oglethorpe recently offered to teach me how to parallel park--how I wish I had taken her up on it!
I can drive all over kingdom come, but I can't parallel park.
When I arrived at tonight's B&B and realized that that's the only way to park a car in this neighborhood, I had a moment: somewhere between full-out panic and irritation at myself for not thinking to ask about that detail!
I went out and explored, came back and found what looked like a generous parking spot, and settled in for the night. Only hours later did I realize that the space must have been three--because I look out the window now and see that I'm squished in close between two Portland people.
