There was a line stretching around the corner of the building and out into the hot summer dark.

At one point the line stretched more than half a mile.

Around the block stretched a long line of women waiting to get in.

The line at the bank stretched almost the length of the building.

As the girl fell back, the line stretched and she felt the pull.

"The line stretched all the way around the outside of the building," she said, "and met again at the door."

Such lines may stretch for more than 50 miles along the ocean's surface.

To our left I caught sight of a black line stretching across the snow.

It is also assumed that the lines do not stretch.

Lines up to three hours long also stretched outside of four other stores nearby.
