Who Are You Calling An Old Man?

Dad recently bought a Toyota Matrix. He and Mom have been tooling around town in a Prius for a few years and Dad wanted a second vehicle in which Mom could get in and out.  He had been hemmin' and hawin' for about a week, telling me he wanted to see if Mom could get into the car. I told him we would do I next time I came up.

 Next time I came up, Dad approached Mom, telling her he wanted to see if she could independently get in and out of the new car. Mom rolled her eyes and harumphed a little. "Come on Peggy, let's try it out. I feel like an old man driving that Prius around"...said the 77 year old man.

Well, Mom easily got in, her young groom drove her around the block, and when they returned I asked Mom to smile for a victory picture...


Nuff said.
