Dave and I had a wonderful weekend with high school friends. I am so glad we went. I actually just sat and enjoyed the setting. I honestly can't remember when I just sat before. I always work on some kind of hand work or appliqué quilting. I did get a drawing and a watercolor sketch done one afternoon. Dave and I cooked breakfast for one of the days for the group too. There were 9 couples there. We stayed at place on the LaSal Mtns. called Whispering Oaks. It is a perfect spot for reunions.
We had a flat on our c-max while coming down off the mountain from our weekend, in a tire were had just replaced the week before because of a nail! That was not so great. The little car does not have a spare. Thankfully Dave had a patch kit in the car. He did not have pliers in the car though and he had to pull a piece of metal out of the tire before he could patch it. Some of our friends stopped to help us. If they had not come down off the mountain the same direction as us, we would have had a major problem! We will not purchase another car that does not have a spare. I don't want one that does not have a full size spare. I drive from here to Moab often by myself. There are places across the swell where this is no cell phone reception at all. If I happened to get a flat and someone stopped to help me... it would not make any difference, since there is nothing but a kit to put the stuff in the tire that plugs the hole and inflates the tire. Not only does it plug the hole, but it messes up the stem on the tire. We did not ask about the spare and were not told by any sales person that there was no spare here at the Ford dealership in St. George. Had we really thought about it, we would not have purchased the car.
