About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. At dusk, when Ortiz Auto Sales & Repair usually quietened down, a delivery driver pulled up in an old truck that looked like it had seen better days. As he stepped out, whistling a tune, the garage door slowly began to open on its own. The garage door opened wide, revealing a dimly lit interior filled with tools and greasy rags. The delivery driver, noticing nothing unusual, walked inside to drop off his package. Moments later, a friendly voice called from behind the counter: 'Hey there, thanks for coming! By the way, your truck could use some tuning.' With a laugh, the driver replied, 'Guess I'll be back then!'
2. At dawn, when Ortiz Auto Sales & Repair was just waking up, a delivery driver noticed something strange in the garage. Upon closer inspection, he saw an old cat sleeping under one of the cars. Startled, it leaped onto the hood and began washing itself with perfect indifference to the morning commotion. The delivery driver chuckled, thinking, ‘Another day, another mystery solved—by a cat.’
3. At midnight, when Ortiz Auto Sales & Repair was closed for the day, a delivery driver noticed something odd on the workshop floor. A toolbox lay open, its contents scattered around—except one unusual item: an old, dusty harmonica. The delivery driver picked up the harmonica curiously and blew into it. To his surprise, it played a perfect tune of ‘Happy Birthday’! Turns out, the owner liked practical jokes, and every night he left behind a musical surprise for anyone who stayed late. The next morning, everyone in town sang happy birthday to the poor mechanic who accidentally locked himself inside after closing time.
4. At nightfall, when Ortiz Auto Sales & Repair was already dark and silent, a small dog wandered in through an open door. It sniffed curiously around the empty workshop, its tail wagging as if it had found a new playground. Suddenly, from behind the counter emerged Ortiz himself, rubbing his eyes. ‘What the…?’ he muttered, then broke into a smile. The little dog bounded over to him, and Ortiz scooped it up, saying, “Guess someone’s been working late.” He chuckled softly, patting the dog on the head.}
