We are no longer a
one-car family. In July, with the help of Craigslist, we bought a new-to-us car from a friendly district attorney who lives in a neighboring town. A few days after the purchase the boys and I drove over to the county seat to pay our car taxes and apply for a new title at the courthouse.
It was a bright, hot July day. We threw some extra change at the county by dropping coins in the fountain in the town's square, after which, we gladly stepped into the cool, marble interior of the courthouse where the boys charmed everyone in the tax assessor's office. When we emerged from the building back into the heat it was just in time to see a freight train blow through town, much to the boys' delight.
