However unlikely the scenario, it’s not entirely implausible that Mim carried out this epic trek over a Labor Day weekend. I mean, we’ve heard of runaways taking on cross-country excursions for lesser reasons, e.g. joy rides. Still, the sheer number of encounters that should have stopped her cold make this a little fantastical. But what a ride! In so many expressions of the word, too. I wish we’d seen more of certain characters and less of others, but then, that seems to be real life experience as well. It was definitely a quality escape from current reading material.
