Car show

Today the boys slept in nice and late.  That's a good thing because I was fuzzy this morning after being nursey all night.  Actually, Colin slept better than Casey, which is kind of a reverse.  One of these days they will BOTH sleep well for me. 

Nancy H came at 2.  We let them laze around for a while and then got them washed up and dressed much to their chagrin.  They thought they'd get to stay dirty all day/night, ha ha. 

We decided to get out and go to the car show in Colchester at Mike's Auto.  Nice low-key, outside event in the evening.  So we headed out to the bay.  Finally found a place to park.  The lot we were in had a little path bypassing the barriers..we decided to try it although it was up a little hill.  Weeellll, Gene and Casey made it with the power chair but it was kind of scary watching them go up.  I started up with Colin's chair, pushing, pushing.  Didn't go too well until a couple that saw my struggle came over and pulled.  Thank you whoever you are!

Casey was actually kind of loud and grumpy while we walked though.  I think he was mad because he couldn't really use his DynaVox because it was so bumpy and his hand wouldn't stay properly in place.  Colin liked it but got bored after about 60 cars or so.  We saw Lynne Mazza and she said that there were way more than 100 cars there because this year they had to park down the middle of the strip and hadn't had to do that before.  Lots of Mustangs and lots of Camaros and so many other cool old and really old cars.  There was one car that we saw for sale for $95,000!!  When we had seen them all, we took the long way around because it wouldn't have been too pretty going downhill with the chairs.

Headed home after that and it was time for bed.  The end, good night!
