Can't keep it in the Garage

Being that the weather here has been just so darn nice lately, we just can't keep our car cooped up in the garage:-) Took another drive today stopping for a coffee and admiring the view then, being brave after last week's drive to the shopping center, I stopped at a store there while my wife stood (sat) guard. While there one of our "grandchildren" parked next too us

Now John,
I know I suggested parking your car on the centre line in the car park to give plenty of space for other cars not to door you but I did not mean to do it sideways

I thought of you Garry when I parked like that
. No one else around so we had the lot to ourselves.

Personally, I think parking on the line and taking two spaces is an invitation to have your car vandalized. Better to park away from the crowd on an end space where you can scoot over and allow plenty of room for the adjacent space.
