Car - Face Lift

Our car was backed into while parked in front of our kid's house in Ann Arbor. No one left a note, just ran off, and so we called the insurance company, and they set us up with a terrific body shop in Ann Arbor. We took the car in on Dec. 26 and got it back on Jan. 4. While it was in the shop, we had it gone over and paint touched up, cracked grill replaced, and the rear door dent removed, as well as fixing the hit and run damage. So the car got a face lift. When we got it back, the car looked like it was new, and we hope it stays that way for some time to come.

We packed the car and left the next morning for Fayetteville, NY, to visit Mom for a spell. After about 9-10 hours on the road, we arrived, having traveled on roads that were dry and with a bit of salt residue, but no snow or snow melt. We had a wonderful time with Kim, Chuck, and boys and miss them already. We are not exactly sure how long we will stay with Mom, but we know she has been looking forward to having some company and probably to beating us at cards. She is one terrific card player, and all other players beware.

Hello,
So glad you're "here"! I bet that was some game of cards. I know Nana was looking forward to your visit, the winters get a little long for her now. See you soon,
Joan
