Catie and her friend Steve drove all day today to be home with us for a week. I was doubtful that they could actually do it in one day, but they were determined. After leaving Charleston at 5:30 (4:30 our time) and confronting traffic in Indianapolis and the construction mess in Chicago, they arrived here at about 11:15 last night. That's more than my behind could endure in a day.
Catie's car actually made the trip. Her mechanic told her about a month ago that she needed to start looking for another car, because putting more money into "Betty" (as in Ford) would be fruitless. She is going to try to hold out for another year to save for a sizable down payment, but that means no air conditioning in a Charleston summer. Again, more than I could endure!!!
