I pull off M-28 just east of Marquette at the Lake Superior Roadside Park. For heaven’s sake it’s 63 degrees here!<\/p>\n

Lake Superior lies under a clear blue sky just beyond a path that runs along the beach. I walk to the water. Gentle waves lap on the shore. The water is so clear. I gaze longingly at the rounded glacial rocks that the water is breaking against, then return to the car and have a quick snack. I start rolling slowly out of the parking spot and hear something. <\/p>\n

“Hey, wait! Sir … sir!?”<\/p>\n

A guy is running across the parking lot. He comes up to the window and wants to talk about the trailer. He says he’s been thinking of getting a teardrop himself. I stop the car and get out. <\/p>\n

We talk about trailers and camping and batteries. He mentions he plays the accordion.<\/p>\n

“Really?” I ask.<\/p>\n

“Yes,” he says. “I have it in my car.”<\/p>\n

I stare at him for a second and ask “Can I see it?”<\/p>\n

He gets it out of his Prius and plays a snippet of Roll Out the Barrel<\/em> right there in the parking lot between his Prius and another black car parked next to his. <\/p>\n
