Early Morning Trip and A Traveling Dollar

Pleasant Hill resident describes an early dawn drive to town with daughter Mary to catch a 3:15 bus. The quiet streets, lighted houses, wandering chickens, and a glimpse of life before dawn frame a reflection on Washington as a bus stop on a line to New York. A silver dollar from Dollar Days becomes a talking point with a student from Indonesia and a girl from Kentucky, illustrating cross cultural exchange and curiosity about American currency. The piece ends with a musing on how far a small town stunt might travel.
