But, as we were alive, well, in a prosperous enough state,
...Continued from 6/26/2017: ...come Monday morning Tom and I had to absorb the news that our car, having suffered serious injuries from its attack by a free-wheeling psychotic tire (see post from 6/18/2017), would have to spend at least the next three weeks being put back together in a garage in Indiana (see post from 6/26/2017) and that we'd have to drive from Chicago home to Columbus in a rental car which we'd either have to continue renting or be a one-car couple for the next three weeks.* But, as we were alive, well, in a prosperous enough state, ...we figured we might as well stop and smell the flowers, And so after saying good-bye to our children, who'd been our bunk mates at the Holiday Jones over the weekend (see post from 6/20/2017), ...and have one more look at the pretty little garden. ...running into some magnificent thunderheads in Indiana, ...but, thankfully, no more crazy tires. *After Maria and the kids left Columbus to return home to L.A., the following day we opted for the latter, the necessity of shelling out a thousand bucks having gotten our mutual goat. We are now on day 3 of being a one-car couple. We are so far managing to survive this condition.
