About this piece: In 1981 my wife Lisa accepted a job offer on Cape Cod, about 2-1/2 hours from where we were living in Rhode Island. I was finishing my last year of graduate school at the University of Rhode Island, so we continued to maintain our apartment there and I commuted once or twice weekly between Rhode Island and the Cape. I spent many hours driving the Cape's main east-west highway, Route 6, also know as the "Mid-Cape Highway". My car at the time? A 1965 red Ford Maverick. The one in the photo is new. Mine was similar in that it had the same shape. But mine featured very faded paint and compound filled rusted out sections. The car had a steering column shift lever that refused to stay in park while the engine idled, so we always had to be watchful of its tendency to pop suddenly into reverse. That car was a maverick indeed! This song became my mind's soundtrack as I made the drive to the Cape.
