Travel writing Maycomb in the 30`s

   When I woke I wasn`t at my home, I was somewhere else at night. I was in the middle of a town, but I couldn`t recognize this. I felt like in the 30`s or something because the arquitecture of the houses seemed to be very old and the cars too. The first house I saw had a porch with Eave Dentils and Tuscan Columns and as I continued walking I saw some shed roofed houses. I could`t belive it! I saw a Rolls-Royce Phantom II and a Cadillac Twelve, I was definetely in the 30`s!

   There was a lot of green, and as after I got out of the town I saw a river and a lot of cotton plantations. When I saw a huge plain terrain I decided to go back, there was no place to go but the town. The sun started to wake up and so did the persons. It was a very sunny and warm morning and almost everyone was using hats and no one was using shorts. I think it wasn`t a very rich year; everyone was using cheap clothes made of cheap materials. I saw a lot of men using black suits, it was probably important to have one around there. 



   I thought I should talk to someone to know where was I, then I approached to a very beautiful woman using a bib-overall. We had a chat and she told me I was at Maycomb. I was confused and I started to desesparate. Everyone walked very slowly and they were very careless. I was in the floor to wake up. I knew it was a nightmare, my agony was even bigger when I realized it was full of old people. I started to get very tired so I just laid in the floor and observed people.

   They acted very passively, I was in the floor! I think they were reserved people. not agressive at all, I would`ve like they were a little bit more active. And finally, I woke up. It was an experiment!
