Faithful readers may remember that I had to get all four of my tires replaced a few weeks ago and the axles aligned, but what you don’t know is that my car has been making a “funny noise”. Now, Nissan Versas are well known for making funny noises, but this funny noise was unfamiliar and it Bothered Me.

So I took the car to Shaffer’s, my new go-to car fix-it shop. Faithful readers my also remember that these are the folks who rescued me from the Jasper Ordeal.

I used to go to John D’s, which was across the street before Shaffer’s was there, but John D retired, so here we are.

Inside, I was heartened to see this sign, especially since it was next to a door.

While I waited, I walked around a bit before it got to hot (this was at 8:00 am) and took pictures. This one was very patriotic, the 4th of July being just around the corner.

I also got a good shot of this tree by the courthouse door. I love this tree. “Why don’t you marry it?” Shut up, kids.

I’ll post a few more pictures from this jaunt next week. Now, I’ll just weep gently into my rags while I contemplate the bad news of having to pay $600 and the good news of having new oil and four good sets of brakes to replace the ones that were JUST ABOUT SHOT shortly before my trip to Indianapolis.

A WRITING PROMPT FROM ME TO YOU: a close call
