I saw the sign ‘Honey for Sale’ and followed it.

She said she couldn’t save it for the next day.

Dad and I were travelling back from going to see family, every one of us were looking for a hotel to spend the night when we saw the sign, ‘Honey for Sale’, and followed it. Every one of us drove nearly forty miles out of the way and took so many turns, I was sure we were lost… Dad was hoping the honey was cheaper here than where we lived, and she wanted to take some lake house to dad, then when we finally got to the honey stand, the woman was closing up and said she was out of honey, then i rolled our eyup and Dad said she saw the honey in the wagon and wanted to buy some! She told him how we had followed the signs and were now lost; The least she could do was sell her some honey to take back lake house with us. The woman was nice enough to smile and nod, then she sold Dad several quarts of honey and several honey sticks. She also threw in some candy that was made of honey and a honey cake. She said she couldn’t save it for the next day. As she was getting ready to leave, I asked what was the quickest way to get back to the interstate. All we had to do was drive down the road we were on for twenty miles, and we would be back on the interstate about thirty miles beyond where we got off. Every one of us got back to the interstate in the same section we wanted to stop for breakfast and get some rest. Dad wasn’t hungry because while I was driving, she ate all the honey cake the woman had given her.
