When Dora talked to her sister in the morning, she found out that her mother had been admitted to the hospital on Monday because she was having breathing difficulties. Dora wanted to go to see her mother so we decided to stay in Pocomoke City for a week and rent a car so she could drive to her Columbia, MD, where her sister lives.
It just happened that the owner of the automobile dealership in Pocomoke City had stopped by to see Seascape on Monday. He had recently ordered a new Krogen 44 and was interested in talking to us about our boat. He was also interested in the fact that Dora had been a teacher since he had been on the local school board for many years.
We called him to see if his dealership rented cars, which they did. Two ladies came by after lunch an dropped off a Toyota van. They came aboard an did the paperwork. A weeks rental was $199.00 plus tax.
We used the van to go shopping. It felt strange driving after several months of not having a car. We studied the Maryland highway map and plotted Dora’s route from Pocomoke City to Columbia, MD. It looked like a three hour drive.
