We are at my parents' house for Labor Day weekend. Our LHS is finally repaired. It had a hole in the gas tank, and after that got repaired, the transmission cut out. $2000 later, the car is ready to go home. We will be a little sad to see the van go, though. It was nice to not have to get out of the car to get Parker out, leaving those 15 seconds or so of panic that someone might get in the driver's seat and take off with my child and car. Also, precooling the car was nice, since I didn't have to worry about leavikng the car again. Jeff will miss riding higher than most of traffic as you do in a van. And it had lots of seating (not that we used that aspect) and room for stuff. But, it will be nice to have the completely manueverable front seat back, and the easy access to Parker while driving and the climate control. Now Jeff has a ton of websites to design as payment. We are very, very grateful for their generosity.
