Julie's growing up

[roccit_53 at scirocco.cs.uoguelph.ca (C Boyko)]

Congrats Julie, and is that one modern enough to need a happy face sticker
for the MIL (aka CEL, your know, the annoying little lighted picture of
your engine that shows up all the time)? I only managed to drive 500 miles
(return) yesterday for an outdoor wedding by a Northern lake, and the
heated seats were topmost on my mind when I got into my car to drive home.
Well, that and what the CEL meant. Enjoy the baffling world of newer VWs!
Today? Coffee, then try to get Klaus' dangling electricals tucked back up
for a two hour drive to the track! We must be nuts. Actually one guy last
night told me I WAS nuts when I said I was driving home after the wedding.
And his point was?
Two bonus prizes yesterday? A really nice car show in Huntsville on the way
to the wedding, and a gorgeous rainbow over the lake. We were in the tent
when it appeared, and I asked right off if it was a double bow (this
indicates an important Scirocco purchase in my life, and Chris DOES still
have that Indiana red temptress for sale...). Nope, just a single bow
reflected in the lake. Phew! It must have been for your car purchase, not
mine!
