Those lines near the end of the song were perfect!

My Mother had dementia in her last years so this hit hard. She lived in a small midwestern town and the scene locations were very similar. Sweet and sad at the same time and what everyone who loves someone with dementia would wish for.

Whoever does Chevy's commercials, they do it very well. My fav is
"Silverado Her Horse A Woman and Her Truck Chevrolet 2014"

and needlessly to say, perhaps, that stirs up emotions in me each to be locked under control as not to the one, because essentially that is not my world, of this thread......

.........except.........

..........the daughter who got Grandmother out of the house strikes a good resemblance to the Shelley Duval in "Roxanne". Dixie, the town of Nelson, hard charging vehicles, it all fits. Further, "Dixie" with her line of "What are friends for?" is a personal motto of mine.

So whatever ties us in...........

("Northern Exposure" could be another tie in especially with that series of Chevy commercials of "Rugged Individual" Janine Turner did at the time).

That did hit close to home with my Mom passing at 94 just two weeks ago, and that Suburban being about the same year as my 1974 Nova.
