Fathers Know A Lot of Things

One of the lessons Don has tried to teach our children is to "drive all four corners of the car." Whether it is the rv, a Jeep, or a Penske truck, one needs to pay attention to what is happening on all four corners of the car . . .


That being said, there appear to be a lot of people whose parents never taught them that lesson. Such as the driver of the neighbor's yard service, who forgot that he had a trailer behind him . . . at the expense of Kenneth's car. Poor thing was just sitting on the street minding its own business when Wham . . .


I went to the mailbox and found a note on the windshield . . . Sorry about the accident. Hope it isn't an inconvenience (though they couldn't spell inconvenience). "What accident?" I asked myself. Then I noticed the mashed in bumper. At least they left their business card. I told their manager that I would recommend their firm just based on the fact that they left their card - so many people don't do that anymore.


Anyway, their insurance has already called, and we will get the car fixed as good as new. Kenneth and Melinda drive the car for 9 months in California and never get a scratch . . . park it on a quiet cul-de-sac and you never know what is going to happen!!!
