I have written before about our car-related tribulations. We took our car for an MOT test 6 weeks ago yesterday and haven’t got it back yet!

Daughter and I made a mad dash to the fuel station and the grocery after mid day yesterday. The car was out of gas and the refrigerator was out of cold cuts. We needed eggs also for our daily omelet.

This was at a rest area in illinois that I stopped at. I like how most of the places that we stopped at driving across the country had a lot of different options for food and drink. I am sure people from other states say the same...

Good evening friends.
Today we were visited by a man who worked with my father in the company, and he has been living in Canada for years. It was a nice surprise, but he came with a neighbor who was a drunkard.
