Nick and I continue to improve our tetris times. On Friday we were tied at 3:03 . . .today I bested him and surpassed all of my goals by reaching 2:55. 2:55!

Saturday was our day at the auto show and we expected to be there for 2 hours. We were there, sitting in lots of cars, trucks, and vans for over 4 hours. It was so much more fun than I thought it would be. It turns out I love racing seats and Escalades.I do not like Minis or BMWs - which surprised me.Nick likes these wheels. "These would be hard to keep clean. . .but they're beautiful."
In the vans and trucks, Nick practiced stowing the seats. They were quite easy and smooth.I fit in the trunk of a Mazada 2. It was sitting open, inviting me to try it out. 
The lights from the ceiling glowed very nicely on the already shiny cars. People were wiping and dusting the cars all day, maintaining their shine. I only remember 2 cars smelling like new cars, leathery and solid. I liked getting into cars with strangers in them. It made for easy conversation and jokes like, "Where should we go?!"

I also love the escape directions. Can't you imagine a group of people sitting around a table discussing what it should be?
