Garage Packing


The day after Thanksgiving is called "Black Friday", Its a name adopted by the Retail Chains describing the hoards of shoppers that flock to stores to start their Christmas shopping on what has become the biggest shopping day of the year. There was some competition offered up as the day after Christmas being the biggest shopping day, but since it turned out that that is in fact the biggest shopping "return" day of the year... there really ought to be a nomination for Boxing Day (December 26th) being called "Black ........." for the Retailers.
For Annmarie and I, shopping was traded for packing... this is the Garage that Hiroshima made... There is hope that order will take the place of this mess and with a week or so to go... and counting, there is still a glimmer of hope. There is however a little urgency involved with this sudden interest in boxes and the converting of disarray to usable space. Tomorrow marks the day that a very fine mode of transport is returned to the confines of the Price household. Warrick's Honda VTX comes home from her first service... believe it or not 600 miles on the clock and she needs to see the Mac. No problems though... she's a Honda and 600 is just like a well exam. I know what your thinking... if I had bought a Harley, I would be getting the engine replaced !

Put one box in another box. Put those 2 boxes in another (slightly bigger) box. Put those 3 boxes in another (slightly bigger) box. Put those 4 boxes in another (slightly bigger) box. Put those 5 boxes in another (slightly bigger) box. Put those 6 boxes ...

We love the Hondas, we love the great engines they make and which now power Middle America (have you noticed, every Craftsman lawn tractor has one!!)You won't find a Harley engine in a Craftsman...
