We've been busy with landscaping, placing some more of the plants we brought from Olympia & those we purchased recently, but a lot are still sitting in the "Plant Pile" down by my workshop.
We attended our grand daughter's 16th birthday party & sampled some of their food. Yummy! We also went to one of her track meets to see her take second place in the high hurdles.

Lynna's little Chrysler has been suffering from neglect. She drove it less than 600 miles the past year and it suffered numerous dead batteries followed by charger time. This killed a new battery in less than a year. The driver's seat is 6 way adjustable with a lumbar support but not the passenger side & her degenerative disk disease keeps her from driving more than 15 minutes or so. We can't even drive it to Salem because that's too far as a driver or passenger, so I decided to replace it. This involved 3 trips to Portland. I found several nice cars, including a Benz diesel but it's seats failed to pass the comfort test. She thought a couple others were ok, but really liked my # 2 choice, a low mileage S Class, so I haggled for the best price & brought it home. Its really plush and Lynna's color also, kind of an aqua-marine.

I've always been able to maintain and repair our cars and there were always a few people who dumped low mileage luxury cars as soon as they were out of warranty. This allowed us to drive some very nice cars over the years. At some point I will not be able to keep doing this and I will have to quit buying German cars.
