Different View
My grandson and I continued across the country today. At one point we stopped at a Maverick in Nebraska. My grandson thought it was one of the most amazing gas stations he had ever seen. It had lots of food for the road. He came across a display case of donuts, so we had to […]
Getting Ready
My grandson works at an auto parts store, so as I’m preparing to take a road trip, he helped me pick out some emergency equipment. Today’s weather was very nice, so I got my car cleaned out and tried out the devices. My brother arrived just in time as I was trying to figure out […]
God’s Flat Tire
It was a very interesting day today. I went to physical therapy this morning and then drove around the neighborhood a bit, stopping at a garage sale. When I got home, I jumped in the shower. While I was in there, I talked to God a bit as is normal. I got a sense that […]
Joyful Auto Shop
Perhaps like many people, I dread finding an auto shop. I have had my current car for 2 years and figured it was time to get an oil change and get it checked over before I take it on the road this summer. I did my research and decided on the one that received the […]
Track Trade Show
A couple months ago, my grandson bought himself a little sprint car to race at the local dirt track. He has been learning all about it and figuring out how to get it up and running. Yesterday he surprised me by asking if I wanted to go to a trade show with him. It was […]
She’s Driving
My daughter in law has been recovering from her ankle surgery 8 weeks ago. It’s hard to believe it has been that long. Over the Thanksgiving school break, my daughter in law was very active and determined to try to get back to normalcy. She practiced driving and felt confident enough to pick up the […]
Secret Snowplower
We are on day 2 of a 3 day snowstorm, which is very unusual for the area and for the month of November. I have been watching more TV than usual and heard a great story. A man has been plowing neighbors’ driveways for years without compensation. For a long time, the people didn’t even […]
The Dark Drive
Since my daughter in law is incapacitated from her ankle surgery a few days ago, I have been helping them out. Tonight I picked up one of my grandsons from an event. It was the first time I drove at night with my new glasses. It was wonderful. I don’t usually even drive at night. […]
The Race Car
Since my grandson was a child he has been obsessed with race cars. He would make detailed tracks out of cardboard and put his hot wheels on them. He even learned how to make stop motion videos, creating his own stories with crashes and cotton ball smoke. When he lived near a race track, he […]
Furry Friend and First Snow
Yesterday my son and his girlfriend went out to try a new restaurant. It was pretty far, so he asked if we would watch his dog. Of course we did. It is always nice to spend time with her. She’s a good dog and so fluffy and furry and fun to pet. On their way […]
