Thanksgiving weekend

Just had to drive Maize to the noonish meal, but torrential rain hit me on the way home. On Saturday I took her to a skeet shoot and didn't know very many people. My car was a great conversation starter. It is a little over a year since I began this adventure. It is truly a unique artistic experience. I am thankful for Maize.

A New Face for an Old Broad

Maize was carefully parked at the event on Broad Ave Sat. Nov. 20 in Memphis Tn. She offered Non- GMO Shopping Guides to the participants who attended the event. I was busy posing as a bike babe and didn't wear the Corn Mother regalia.

Halloween Car?

Leaving a wonderful Halloween weekend Sunday morning on Rutledge Pike in Knoxville a guy in the gas station yells from his car "Is that a Halloween Car?" (It was Halloween)
I'm always taken aback at the comments people make about my car. I said "No. It always looks like this" and then he said "Will that wash off?' I didn't figure I needed to go further into the purpose of the paint job. I had a 6hr road trip ahead of me and it was a beautiful day.

The obligations of an art car with a message

I don't ususally take Maize out after dark because she isn't as effective and I can't see very well out of her. I was getting gas around dusk and going to go home to switch cars before going to Circut Playhouse. A gentleman at the gas station was interested in my message and we spoke for about 30 minutes so I had to go straight to the play. On the way home she lost power turning left on Central from Cooper. Eased into a parking lot. Called AAA and waited for an hour at the gas station across the street. When the wrecker driver got her loaded on the truck he got in the cab and said what does that message mean on the back of your car? We spent the ride home discussing Monsanto vs real food. he left with a Non-GMO shopping guide and a handful of organic corn seeds....just like the guy at the gas station. Inch by inch....
