"How long are you going to celebrate your anniversary?" Johnny O asked as I stumbled in the door marked "Exit Only" at The Breakfast Club where the City of Tybee has taken away my normal parking space.
"Ummm, all year," I replied sitting across from him. "Why did the city take away another parking place?"
"It's part of the Master Plan," Franklin, who is brown, answers.
"The City has a Master Plan?"
"There's a plan?"
"This is a city?"
"Are they making Coyote crossings?"
"What's Sarah doing?"
The questions are too numerous to process so I sip my coffee and watch David Peters park beside the freshly painted yellow curb that used to be my parking place.
It's not like the old days.
Tybee used to have a great parking plan! If your car didn't tip over, you could park there.
Now the City's plan centers around accommodating more cars by eliminating parking spaces. This is in keeping with the current philosophy of doing more with less demonstrated repeatedly in every election.
I'm not going to worry about it though. Today's my anniversary and we plan on celebrating, culminating in fireworks which are illegal in Georgia so we plan on doing it another way!
Assuming we can find a place to park.
