She got rides with lots of different types of people. One guy scared the hell out of her. He was like in the FBI or something. He took her a good distance, but didn’t say a word the whole time. He had a police radio and a search light on top of his car and a loud speaker. Once a driver next to us didn’t have his lights on and he blared out, “Turn your lights on!” Scared the shit out of her. He wanted to know her name and where she was going so that if anything happened, he could report it. Weird!
Another time she got a ride with a guy who was transporting his tropical fish to the Bay Area from Texas in Styrofoam ice chests. He cared for those fish like a mother worrying about their temperature and oxygen availability. She had a great conversation with him along the way. He was in the service and had been transferred. His family was flying in to meet him…and yes, he asked her to have sex. She got to where and when it was coming up in the conversation. It was like… “Oh God, here it comes again.”
An older couple stopped to pick her up in a plain non-descript sedan. She thought, ” Great! Finally no sex here.” She should have known something was up when the woman got out to let her sit in the middle and then they both started running their hands up and down her legs. “Jesus! Does EVERYONE want to screw me?!?”
They drove quite a ways and stopped at a Howard Johnson’s somewhere near the Mexican border. They treated her to a good dinner and asked if she didn’t want to spend the night with them at the hotel and go into Mexico sight seeing the next day.
She said she would spend the night if they got her a separate bed. She took a shower and settled in to sleep. When she looked over at them they had pulled out a suitcase full of dildos, French ticklers, blind folds, whips, etc. She listened to them go at it all night while she tried to sleep. The next morning she awoke early and got the Hell out of there! Weirdos!
