We've spent the last couple days having fun with our new car. Typical of Aaron, he found one of the few things that didn't work right and just had to fix it. In this case it was the trunk that doesn't stay open right. He got in there and figured out how to fix it, but doesn't have the strength to get the metal bar into position. We suggested a professional could have a try.
Yesterday right after we got the car we took a drive up Indian Creek Road. He told me about an abandoned classic car our neighbor showed him, near a rock quarry. We parked our car and hiked into the area where our neighbor camped a few years back and finally found the car (a wreck!). I sure got my exercise as it was much further than I anticipated!
Last night I drove my daughter to Medford and got a few new clothes for the kids.
