We have a new car. I decided that the 2020 Santa Fe that Beth preferred was just too expensive and she even thought the monthly payment we would have was too much. There was also another Santa Fe, a smaller model but a year older, at the Best Deal in Angola, so we asked them to move that one to Warsaw so we could test drive it before settling on the '17. It was going to take them a few days, so we just ran up to Angola after work on Monday, test drove the '16 SF, decided that we didn't like it (it didn't seem as well taken care of, or quite as sound), told them it was a no-go for us, and went home. On Tuesday I took the '17 SF to Ab & Tom's to check it out, and they reported only that the lower oil pan was seeping a little: as they put it, "it's not the best but it's not bad." So Beth decided that the color was not a deal breaker and she drove it again, deciding that maybe she did really like it after all. We told them at Best Deal that we would take it and get all the paperwork done on Wednesday. We came back and did the deal Wednesday afternoon and we now own a 2017 Hyundai Santa Fe. And Beth is quite excited by and happy with it. 

Saturday was the annual un-garage sale for Beth's work. Again this year, we were working the child care area. We checked in and watched kids while the parents shopped. Mostly the kids were good, but I did have one kid, must have been around 8, who decided he wasn't staying any more. I blocked his exit and told him he had to stay until someone came to pick him up, so he pushed past me and ran. Then he ran down the aisles back and forth to get away from me. I went after him but he just looked back and bolted if he saw me. So, we found a parent and kicked him out. He was the only one I wanted to spank, though. Mostly the kids were littler (but only 3+) and only wanted to stay in the play area longer when the parents came back. Anyway, not as much traffic as last year. Still gave away a lot of stuff, but not sure why so fewer people. 

Next week, we are on vacation! Camping at Clifty Falls Sate Park. The weather forecast for the next week is horrible. Very hot and rainy all week. Alex and Nat have both decided not to go because of the weather.
