It was a dark and stormy night, and Liberian was on his way to Ragon Hall for a square dance to see the old year out. With the meet-up location only a few miles beyond Ragon Hall and in what looked like a business' parking lot, Liberian left a little early to try to get there.
The drive over was uneventful, but Liberian realized as he was going through Pensacola proper that he was running out of time. Nevertheless, he stayed on I-10 through the Pine Forest Drive exit, which leads to Ragon Hall, and got off at US 90. Proceeding westwards he came to the appropriate driveway. It looked a good bit more forbidding in the dark, and as Liberian turned up the driveway he wondered whether anybody else had tried this.
Other company or no, it was still a dark and stormy night. Liberian drove up to the building in question, turned the car around, took a couple of pictures of his GPS at arm's length, and then went off to the square dance. He got there as the caller was ascending his stand to call the first tip.
