Never say die.

So Frank the car is working again. I am extremely grateful to the man from AMA. On Tuesday I managed to get a tow-truck out to my car at the Temple, even though it took all day. We decided to try and get it started before trying to tow it. So we boosted it and he pounded on the gas tank as I tried to start it. Lo and behold it started with a vengeance. Hallelujah!
The guy said that it’s surprising how often that works. In the winter you can get a car to start 95% of the time just by pounding on the gas tank with your hand. Who knew? Well I’m glad I learned that because I had to do it myself just yesterday. I like Frank but sometimes I think it doesn’t like me.
Well, every good blog needs pictures. Friday was such a beautiful day that I had to go outside to take some pictures of the cherry blossoms outside our apartment window. I may have to take more.



Later that day I saw a Rabit outside our flat eating dandilions. After a dozen or more shots I finally got this one. Apparently my nephew loves it.

Also, my camera is excellent for taking close up photos. I happen to think they are cool, so here is a close up of some cherry blossoms.

We don’t have apricot trees but as far as popcorn popping I imagine cherry blossomes, only more white.

And this is a tiny little plant that I saw on Mothers day as I went out for a walk with my folks. I realise now that I didn’t take a picture of them. I’m not very good at taking pictures of people. As evidenced here.

This is from the ultimate Frisbee activity that we had yesterday. Word to the wise. Do not get in Rand’s way. Unless you’re Adam.

Even then. I guess Adam was voted as the ‘coach’ of the day, because they poured the ice from to cooler on him. I missed the event itself, but here is the aftermath.
As for myself, I’m sore all over and I have sunburn on the back of my legs, where I missed putting the sunblock. I have skin that tans with SPF 45. It’s a curse I tell you.
