Pulling into the parking space, I can see the heat radiating off the black asphalt. Like shimmering, dancing ghosts skimming between the cars, little whirlwinds swirl in the dimming light. Reluctantly I turn off the car, the cool breeze blowing from the dashboard vents is quickly replaced by humid ocean air. I tug on my … Continue reading I want to go to there
