This is some little brick building next door to Uncle Benny's property. It has something to do with electric but I don't know what. Its been there a long time and I've never seen anyone around it.

Yes, I did have car trouble. I don't know now what it was. If you have car trouble and you are near these guys they will fix it or die trying. They may have known more than our Dad did about cars because they would know about newer ones.

They were happy-go-lucky guys but they were in trouble all the time.

I had forgotten that the Maverick had a fold down top. It also had bucket seats in the front that folded back so you could "nap" in your car, hopefully not while driving. I suppose with effort you might possibly do something else in one of these but it would have been very awkward, at the least.

Mom and Uncle Benny on the walk back to the car. I'm looking at these photos and I think they represent two different visits but I could be wrong.

Uncle Benny and Aunt Jeannette lived in the yellow trailer in the far right. Which kid lived in the white one I don't know. There were more trailers up in the woods. I think the all felt free to go in any of the others at any time. If they had secrets they didn't keep them long.
