Does this clause make grammatical sense?
Multi tool use
0
As she pulled into the parking lot on her last first day of school, Maggie felt both nostalgic and relieved, like when she saw her favorite childhood uncle at family reunions but wasn’t alone with him in a toolshed.
Does "when she saw" necessarily refer to a specific family reunion, or can it refer to family reunions in general?
