The Cops!


Ah summer! For a teacher that is... Sorry for you folks that are not in education! Anyway, as I drank coffee with my beautiful wife, she mentions that there is a cop outside who is checking the Z. I hurriedly grab the registration and run out to see what's up. He tells me in the matter-of-fact tone that I think police have to have, "The car is being impounded", after I queried what was going. I asked why, and he tells me because the registration is out of date. OOps! I forgot to even check that! Fortunately, I explained that I just brought the car in last week and it is a donor car for a school project, he was understanding. He told me that he will come back tomorrow and the car better be off the street. Well, thanks to my nephew, we push the car (thanks Jill, for driving) up onto a patch of dirt beside our driveway (had to use the old bumper to bumper move with our van to get it all the way up). Thank goodness we caught the police, I would have hated to pay to retrieve the car from being impounded! Sharp eyes Jill!
