A Mercedes in the Parking Structure

The dreary rainy weather kept us indoors for our morning walks over the weekend. Usually we will brave the elements and walk with an umbrella. But when it’s a tropical storm we decided to walk in the parking structure of our condo building. At least it is an option, but nothing like the fresh air outdoors. So we started at our usual place after getting out of the stairwell and things looked like they always do. A lot of people choose to park their vehicles on the first two levels on the weekend and not the gated section further down that is reserved for tenants. On our way down to the lowest level we came across an interesting Mercedes. It was black and a very fancy sports car. The funny thing is that it was a child’s car made to look like the real thing. And it did. I don’t know where it came from or who it belongs to. But it did look like it has gotten a lot of wear. I’m assuming it belongs to a grandparent who happens to live in the building. It just looked funny taking up an entire parking space for this tiny vehicle. I remember as a youngster having a yellow vehicle of some sort that was shared with my siblings. But we had to drive it with our feet - not with a battery. Things have changed since then. But at least we still got to enjoy driving a car all those years ago.
