Our SIL is going to fix it, but just now has found the parts. He'll take it back with them when they come home for Thanksgiving. Hopefully, we'll have it back for Christmas. We live 13 miles from anywhere, so it's pretty crummy. To make it worse, there's no where else to take the car anymore. We used to have a couple of mechanics, but they retired. The kids in town aren't very good and it's too expensive to tow the car into the city. [/quote] I can't imagine the tow bill for 13 miles! We had to have our youngest daughter's car towed 3 miles to a repair shop and it was $125. Living in a small town or out in the country is cool, until something like that happens. Kind of like computers...they are awesome until they don't work and cost an arm and a leg to fix. [/quote] I'm trying not to think about it. They haven't even LOOKED at it yet. Talk about computers, I think that's why Nines hasn't been on. She said something about her computer acting up. I think I'll call her this weekend. [/quote] I hope everything is ok with Nine's. Seems like people are dropping like flies lately. I still can't believe Tiny Green has been gone for so long, and her membership is still paid up! [/quote]

last year i canned for the first time. wow, i was nervous.
this year, i'm doing better. i have been canning like mad.
if you'd like, tell us your how's and why's. learning to preserve food is one of the most important skills a person can learn.
if you have a picture of your preserved foods uploaded, let me know and i'll post it for you.
