Relating the present to the past -- or the future -- these eleven stories let fantasy wander, pause and come up with pleasant timepassing. Grand Central's third level leads to the past; neighbors from the future add to suburban life; an adjective cellar clears away excess verbiage; boy meets girl in possible-tinged-with-fancy circumstances; a plane, from times to come, flies in the Civil War; a 1923 car is restored and saves lives; a land of dreams escapes the dreamer, etc. Amiable.
