I remember growing up in Rhode Island having a low digit number license plate was a big status thing. People would offer up big dollars to get a low number plate from someone who had one.

 

Now you know why we try to go to Brown County, IN every year. Brown County/Nashville is very close to Bloomington.

 

I drove right through it on the way home. Now I understand why you guys go there! I also drove through the Hocking Hills (?) area of Ohio, and I can also appreciate that area.

 

Gene, are you home now?

Yes, Hocking Hills is beautiful. We have not been there for quite a while, though.

 

I got home yesterday (Thursday) around 1:00 PM. I posted pictures earlier (in this thread) of the car in my driveway after washing it.

 

Sue is still worrying about coming to Ann Arbor to sit with a million people - I don't blame her - TV is an option.

 

S looks great Gene. Looks like our 2000 did, with the red interior. Not Silverstone I guess?

 

Chicane silver. A subtle difference from Silverstone.

 

My almost 3 year old spa has some cosmetic issues. I wrote an email and sent it to the place I bought it, Aqua Spas, along with photos of what my four issues are. Kody, the lead in the service department called today and they should be out on 9-13 to repair it all. I did have to pay $149 for the service call but I was expecting some BS, and was pleased I didn't get any. Of course, I was as nice as I could be.

After ^that success, I called my internet provider, Rise Broadband, to let them know I wasn't about to pay the increased rates they just emailed me about. I said my connection is unreliable and I have to use my cellphone to get my emails at times. I have a history with them and their technical support and it's always a problem on their end. After the first transfer to someone who can do something about it, Ashely decreased my rate by $10/month for the next year, to $49.70 per month. That's what I'm talking about!

 

Squeaky wheels get the grease!
