I'm back

Some technical difficulties took me off the grid for a few days but whatever was wrong fixed itself and my computer is back online
which means 
I have some catching up to do!

While I was "unplugged" from everything our garden exploded with color. Flowers have popped out everywhere,
as well as the weeds. 

And remember this?
Weeks turned to months of puzzling over solutions, parts purchased and then returned, books read, websites searched, trial and error, frustration, patience, perseverance, searching for an answer and then, just when you don't expect it, it is found. On a walk, bumping into a friend, two moms talking/sharing during a summer downpour in a field, an idea soaks in as the rain comes down harder, a suggestion, a call, two husbands, a code, a fix and at last the long awaited sound of a running motor. After washing, waxing, polishing will be lessons on clutches and shifting, manual transmission, teaching young drivers, practice.
Another car back in the fleet.
