My son met my daughter and I at the Hotel my parents were running late it was a rainy day but I still had to wash the car the best I could with detail spray and then the waiting began. Once she got there she was all smiles it made the trip all worth while!

You're a good son David. But, are you sure she's 78? I ain't nowhere near that, and don't look that good.

LOL yes both my parents are in great shape! The golf once or twice a week as well as bowl weekly. I think my father may be in better shape then me and I'm 51. Seeing my mother's eye's light up when she saw the car was priceless! In the morning when we said goodbye she had tears of joy and appreciation one can only wish to bring such joy to their parents it was a great feeling!

My mother is the talk of the town now that she brought her car home
