Friday, February 10th, Claude and I each took a car to Georgetown. We had lunch at Fazoli's before we each went our separate ways. At lunch we talked about buying a Jeep for Claude. We have had this conversation many times. I assured him he should go ahead and do it. So I was not surprised to get a text message from him saying he was at Frank Shoop and was going for a test ride.
He did take the test ride. He did let Chris look for him a neon green Jeep. Chris found one in Pennsylvania. Frank Shoop has sold the two he has had on his lot already. So, Claude signed the papers for a new green Jeep with a hard top. He is adding running boards to the side and a trailer hitch. Goodness. It should arrive this Friday.
This means another drive to Michigan. We decided not to trade the Jeep in. While in Michigan taking the Lucerne to Katelyn, Claude and Nissa had a chat about the Jeep. Nissa said she and Todd would want the Jeep. They used to ride Harley's. They would take the top off the Jeep and go for nice rides with it. So, when Claude made the deal with Frank Shoop for the new Jeep, he contacted Nissa and Todd and by Sunday evening they were sure they would take the yellow Jeep. That means another trip to Michigan.
Again, I sent Jake a note stating when we were planning to do this trip and to see if he would be available for another meal. Jake's response, "Let me finish chuckling and then I'll check my calendar." So we are going to get another meal with Jake, a visit with our Michigan family.
Picture to follow after we pick up the green Jeep... Goodness...
