Let the joking begin....

 It is true - my wife and I purchased a Toyota Prius C the other day.

What do you think?  It's okay to joke around, I've been told that to turn left, all I have to do is roll down the window and hold out my arm and the wind resistance and car do the rest...but I'm having fun in it. So far, this tank, I'm getting 48 mpg. For a commuter vehicle, not bad. The real tricky part is getting in and starting it - takes some getting used to that there's NO ENGINE NOISE and the car is on, ready to drive. The ride is great; smooth.

Ashley and River came and spent a few weeks with us. They both got to spend some time with Uncle Austin before he goes out on patrol for ten months. It was real nice to see them. Glad to have Austin home for a few days too.
