One for the Road

Restaurants are limited in Lexington but, they are generally nice. There I find Las Caritas, a Mexican delight. More importantly, I meet the staff. Speaking in my acceptable, but broken Spanish, the crew one by one comes by my table to offer their welcome. They are all young folks, new to the USA, struggling make a new life for themselves. Wow, this really is America!
I am having fun and ask for a final class of wine. “One for the road”, I say. “We do not allow alcohol to be taken out the Mexican manager replies. The excitement continues as I explain the real meaning of the expression “One for the road”
