Sharing the story of the corvette. So, Bill next door bought a corvette a few years ago. He kind of showed it off when he got it. Told me he would give me a ride someday. There were conditions though with the biggest one being it could not be raining. He drove it a bit on non-rainy days. The corvette lived in the garage which is a good place for it. About the time Bill died I found out that a guy he worked with, Craig, lives in the community I work at. So, Craig knew about the corvette. He came up to me this week and told me to tell Sue that he thought she should park it in the driveway for one rainy day. He knew the rules. I looked at him and said she did one better. She drove it in the rain. When I told her the story she asked if I said she had driven it in the rain. We all had a good laugh at it.
We were not being malicious. Just funny. Having rode in it with Sue, I understand Bill's reasoning. It is quite a car with a lot of power. Sometimes you have to find things to laugh about in times of grief. Bill is probably somewhere laughing at us and saying, "I told you so". And Craig didn't say drive it so he understood also but thought a little rain wouldn't hurt the car.
