There I was minding my own business in the Ada Public Library, and who do you suppose walked in: Great-Grandmother Ada.

I hadn’t seen her in town since the night Zac Dysert was drafted by the Broncos. She doesn’t live here anymore. I think she moved to Ada, Oklahoma, but I’m not certain. Anyway, I know she’s retired. She looked really good, though. A little purple wave in her hair and a really nice tan.

As soon as she sat down I knew she’d start talking. She has lots of opinions on Ada. You know, the usual: What ever became of so-and-so, and who bought that property on North Main Street?”
