A good deed done
I was at a brunch at a friends house a couple of weeks ago and met a guy in his 50’s who went totally blind about 15 years ago. He is very up and adapted very well to his condition. He got really excited when he heard I had a Cobra and talked about his original 240Z he still keeps in his garage. We talked cars, Cobras and racing most of the day and really enjoyed the company.
Before I left he asked me if I was ever up in his area could I just stop by and let him ‘feel’ the car and hear the engine. This really touched me and I went up there today. He was in awe as his hands slowly ran around the car, ever so carefully, feeling every nook and cranny, commenting on every part. I could just imagine him forming the picture in his mind.
I belted him up and took him out for a spin also. He was really grateful and I had a great feeling as I left. He said I made is whole year but I think he made mine.
Be always thankful for what we have,
Roscoe
