Strong rains, got a short ride from a local, trying to get closer to Dallas to find some public transportation to reach Downtown.―Osparagus

Had a sign saying "Athens". I ended having all the way closer to Dallas from a former hitchhiker who used to travel all over the country.'Dog', proudly republican and member of the band Black Ice.
Offered me money at the end of the ride, even if I told him he didn't have to.
Gave me his # as well, telling me I have a friend in Texas now, if I ever come back in the area.
Got pulled over by the police during the ride, but for silly reasons. Nothing happened.

Don't remember exact day but I hitched here for about an hour after walking 30 minutes from Bonnie Brae along University, thumbing the whole way. A dude eventually picked me up and drove me all the way to where I needed to go at the Dallas Museum of Art. Super chill dude with old hitching stories. Told me to see the beauty in the world. When he picked me up he saw me and then went into the QT then came back around and got me, and that was prob a 15 min+ thing //. One story was pretty funny he said he was hitching from like Virginia to Fort Worth in the 70s and he gets picked up by this young couple. Well the mom is breastfeeding her infant, but, her other kid, a toddler, wants in on the action and says "Mommy mommy I'm thirstyy" so she starts double breast feeding, one each. This dude was in the backseat, just in awe for a sec. Then a few min later she asks if he's thirsty and he said his jaw was scraping gravel like it was on the ground. After a second, the husband burst out laughing and the wife / mom realizes then says like Oh No! we have lemonade I meant lemonade... // Had a few other stories too it was a good ride. Thanks ///. So . yeah, unlikely spot but I've always gotten solid or potentially very good rides around DFW here.―braesheightsjd
