So I went driving around today because I wanted to get out of the house. After I went to by my staples for the morning I proceeded on my way to Shelby Park. I noticed that there was a nature area/preservation and decided to check it out. I got out of the car and looked at the visitors sign noticing that it suggests that you walk the trail with a friend. Kind of a strange feeling came over me because I already know that this particular park is not exactly the safest place to be. My interest was piqued when I see that there are several cool animals that live in this area, and I have not been on a good walk in a while so I decided to have a go at it. When I walked over the bridge I noticed an old man in a mechanics uniform standing by the pavillion. As I was trying to decide which way to walk the trail, the guy started talking to me about how hot it was outside which was strange because it's probably the coolest day we've had in at least two weeks. So we talked about the weather for a second and he began walking towards me. He then started talking about where he was from and asking if I was from here and throwing in vague refrences which I initially thought were about drugs saying "yeah sometimes you can come out here and find some shit." At this point I was a little weirded out and he was standing about two feet from me. The conversation went from that to "sometimes you can come out here and meet people" and I continued to try and talk about how I just wanted to look at nature and walk the trail. He then said something about how it was a really long trail and he couldn't even make it half way around it, and here's the kicker:
he went straight from that into "yeah sometimes I can come out here and meet people and take out my false teeth and maybe get lucky." At this point I had to laugh a little bit and just said "oh really, well I'm going to walk some of the trail" and began walking away from grandpa creepo. He then tried to get me to walk the opposite way on the trail by saying "people usually walk this way." At that point I left.
Wow, I was creeped out a good bit, but then it just made me sad. I wasn't even really shocked that much because I knew something strange was going to happen, but I could have never anticipated being propositioned for a blow job by a 60+ year old dude.
Oh yeah, he was from Carthage by the way.
big surprise
