car dealership showroom
Sitting in a car. In a dealership showroom. Staying there until another customer seemed to want to look in the front seat, which rarely happened.

Love that Honda embraces my boss.
Bluey and friends painted on a car dealership wall
This was a cool experience at the dealership’s kiddie area a few days ago. Ps.Tonight, we just finished watching four episodes of Bluey in our front room.

It’s over.

Can you fathom?

i cannot.

Yet, weirdly, i can.

My peace i bring to you.

My peace i give to you.

Catches seafood restaurant sign
Catches was a Comfort Inn employee dinner recommendation. It was perfect. We got there just before the 9:00pm closing.

Never made it to today’s second dealership option. Didn’t need to.
