A Little Journey to the Time Machine
A Little Journey to the Time Machine recounts a traveler’s outing near Five Paints to observe Amish life, visit a plain store, and observe local racing scenes at Kokomo Speedway. The piece mixes observations of Amish neighbors with notes on USAC midget races and photos of drivers Billy Cosby, Danzy Caruthers, Jimmy Caruthers, Chuck Arnold, and Merle Bettenhausen. The narrator also mentions Appleton’s used bookshop, a retro car jack, and Modes of travel before returning home with photos and racing memories.
