Three trips to Auto Zone and my motor was finally humming once again. Now tell me, who wants to make three trips to such an establishment on a Saturday evening when you are on vacation? My sis and B*I*L were mighty cheerful Good Deed Doers, that's all I can say!
Speaking of good deeds, our local government gave me a very generous gift this winter by installing a bridge at the base of the canyon where I take my daily hikes.
Since I cannot possibly risk a fall with my new spinal fusions, the bridge was installed just before the first snow.
During previous winters, I would slide down one side of that river bank and claw my way up the other side. It was exceptionally kind of the city to recognize my post-surgical dilemma and provide me with such a marvelous and rather extravagant gift.
(But I'm worth it.)

Yes, you ARE worth it. And since my tax dollars are a constant source of bitter aggravation to me, I will now officially decide that that bridge is where they all have gone. So, both our burdens lifted!!
Ain't it great to have fam?
So creative! I love it. You are worth it!
Ginger, I so envy your access to such a beautiful canyon. I hope you'll enjoy it a little extra for me. I think of you often, always with fondness & gratitude. I think my years at Adventure Time have been a great blessing to my own pre-schoolers. That was on-the-job mommy training.
Isn't it great to have family and friends who'll step in and help in your time of need - even if it IS Saturday and DOES involve the parts store!?
I envy you your canyon, and miss those Utah snows, but doing our good deeds here in the California sunshine - well - it's tough to complain! :)
