We have lift off!

Managed to get Gert moving again yesterday so we tottled on down to Montgomery Mall to roll aroud for a while, after we dropped off John's lunch (which he forgot) and after I turned around the car about half way there to get some shoes (it's not important to note whose shoes they were....).

Had some lunch at the mall - a kiddie meal suffices for Gert as it's just the right size.

Rolled over to Mom's favorite store, Crate and Barrel, where we found a blanket she loved but wouldn't buy. So, it's her Mother's Day present from me and, as you can see, we came home and broke it in, along with a fresh bourbon and coke.

Bobbi and John joined us for cocktail hour on the verandah (that's deck in Md speak) and a great afternoon/ (early) evening was had by all.

As an aside, I've made it into print on my friend Peggy's found money blog!
