Homeskoolin’ Bonus “Scenes From America”

Chapters
00:00 - Big double decker train / Car wash (Impala)


Notes
If you live in Nashville and you don’t already know about Brentwood Auto Wash…you need to get hip.

And you’re welcome…because the place is AMAZING.

My 65 impala was just FILTHY, covered in sticky tree sap…so I went for it, even though I knew the leaky convertible top had zero chance against the power of the automatic car wash.
