UPDATE, cont.

Oops, I thought I'd gotten this in before the previous update went through: right after the hospital called, the garage called to let Karen know it cost $300 to get her old-300,000 miles-car winter-ready! Bit of a shock that one as Spaw and Wayne had done some of the work and bought the parts themselves. At least she will be safe going to and from work, etc.

Thanks, folks!
