Al & Marianne were a couple who lived in a house two doors down.
Their house was actually located in the back of another house and their backyard was the alley where most us kids hung out.
Marianne claimed once to have caught the sun in her bed sheet. She also claimed that the Virgin Mary spoke to her and that she needed to put a darning needle in her hair to shut her up. Evidently the Virgin Mary is quite a talker.
I remember Al coming home with a bottle every night. Can ya blame the guy for drinking?!
One Summer they showed up with a car. How it got there nobody knew because neither one of them drove. That Summer they would get dressed to the nines, grab a bottle of booze
and sit in that car for hours. At the end of their date, Al would open his door, walk around to the side of the car and open the car door for Marianne.
Crazy love.
